5 Best Uses for Hybrid Utility Clubs
By: John Bolt
Have you seen those new hybrid utility clubs? They are showing up all over the
place, rescuing golfers from all kinds of situations. The reason for this is
simple; they open up opportunities for a number of great new shots.
Even the tour pros are using them to help them win big tournaments. (Todd Hamilton
British Open, David Toms PGA Championship, Reteif Goosen
US Open) We have come up with what we believe are the 5 best uses for these
hybrid clubs.
1. OFF THE TEE These clubs are great for long par 3s and short
par 4 tee shots when you must carry a bunker or water hazard. Most long irons
shots have a low piercing trajectory. These hybrids have a lower center of gravity
that helps to launch the ball up into the air. Because of this high ball flight,
the ball will come down on a steeper angle making it easier to stop on the green.
2. FROM THE FAIRWAY They are good for long approach shots to the greens
on par 5s and long par 4s. Because of their great distance control
and accuracy, these hybrids will build your confidence. Hitting this club form
the fairways will have you going for more par 5s in 2 and leaving you
short putts for eagle.
3. FROM THE ROUGH Most long irons get caught up in the rough causing
them to twist easily and produce mishits. The bigger size and mass of the hybrids
over regular irons makes it easier for the club to drive through the rough while
keeping the face square. This squaring of the clubface is also aided by the
rudders and rails on the sole of the club going through the turf.
4. OUT OF A BUNKER - Move the ball back in your stance to promote a little
steeper angle of attack. The bigger club heads and larger ruddered soles of
hybrids make it easier to swing through the sand without catching it fat or
heavy. It is very important on these long bunker shots to hit the ball first.
This will help get the ball up in the air very quickly and out of the bunker.
5. AROUND THE GREEN Hybrid utility clubs work great for bump and run
shots around the green (just ask Todd Hamilton). They help to eliminate the
chance for error by getting the ball rolling on the ground as quick as possible.
Because the shafts are shorter you can play these shots almost like a putt without
choking down on the shaft to gain control. This eliminates the chance of a skull,
chunk, or a decelerating wedge shot.
We find these hybrid utility clubs to be one of the most versatile clubs you
could have in your bag. Get more info about hybrid utility clubs from our website.
