HYBRIDS SPECIAL: 1 CLUB 6 SHOTS
When the R&A adopted the 14-club rule eighty years ago, little did they know that a club would be coming along that would make a mockery of it. With the searing power of a 2-iron, the easy launch of a 6-iron, the recovery powers of a wedge and the bounce of a sand iron, the hybrid takes your virtual club count well above legal limits. All you need is a little know-how in how to make the most of this most versatile of clubs in all the situations it can turn its hand to. So from soaring tee shots into long par 3s to deft green side chips, we give you six techniques for six scenarios and the hybrid’s famed forgiveness means that with just a little practice, you can quickly become adept at all of them. Here, we’ll help you master the shots and we’ve got some advice about choosing hybrids – how to match them to your swing and get the ideal yardage gaps.
