Hybrids

One of the newer additions to the golfing scene, the Golf Hybrid also referred to as Golf Rescue by some brands are a combination of a golf iron and a golf fairway wood. The hybrid is made to be used for as a replacement for a longer iron, which can be a lot more tricky to hit. The golf hybrid is arguably one of the most forgiving golf clubs you can have in your bag.

A golf hybrid can be used in a variety of different situations out on the golf course. Whether you find yourself in thick rough or you have a long par 3 tee shot a hybrid can be used. Having the center of gravity (CG) further back from the face and a shallow face make hybrids a lot easier to get off the ground.

Being one of the longer clubs a golfer would have in their golf bag they mostly paired with a graphite golf shaft as opposed to a steel shaft.

Golf hybrids are available in multiple different head shapes and sizes just like any other golf club. Some will have more of a long iron feel and look to them which are normally aimed at your lower handicap players, whereas others will have a much bigger profile and almost resembling that of a fairway wood which is then meant to be used by players with a higher handicap. However as with any club, golfers are entitled to play whatever golf club they see fit for them.

Hybrids are numbered in the exact same way as golf irons as they are intended to be a direct replacement for a golf iron. A two hybrid will have around 17° degree of loft and seven hybrid have around 32° of loft. As with most longer clubs in the golf bag they come with adjustable hosels giving the golfer the ability to personalise their golf game to what they see fit.
