Use Of Hybrid Utility Clubs
Utility clubs and hybrids are a relatively recent addition to the pantheon of golf clubs
, and they are growing in popularity because they are designed to be easier to hit for recreational golfers. In fact, they are easier to hit for all golfers, and most touring pros now carry hybrids. But they are a particularly good choice for recreational golfers. The terms "utility clubs" and "hybrid clubs" are generally used interchangeably. They denote a category of clubs that combine elements of both woods and irons into their design.
This combination of elements from both irons and woods adds up to having technical features that aid in getting the ball airborne, that dampen the effects of mishit, and other things that are pluses. Most hybrids are designed to replace long irons in a golfer's bag, and when you hear it said that hybrids are "easier to hit," this is almost always meant in comparison to the long irons the hybrids are meant to replace. For this reason, most golfers would do well to consider, if shopping for a brand new set of clubs, a "hybrid set" or "hybrid irons set." In hybrid sets, the long irons are replaced with utility clubs designed to hit the ball the same distances, but with greater forgiveness and other game-improvement features built in.
The new hybrid utility clubs are showing up all over the place, rescuing golfers from all kinds of situations. They offer opportunities for a number of great new shots. First of all, these clubs are great for long par 3's and short par 4 tee shots off the tee 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.
Secondly, They are good for long approach shots to the greens on par 5's and long par 4's from the fairway. 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 5's in 2 and leaving you short putts for eagle. And the longest irons get caught up in the rough causing them to twist easily and produce mishit from the rough. 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. Move the ball back in your stance to promote a little steeper angle of attack out of a bunker. 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.
Finally, Hybrid utility clubs work great for bump and run shots around the green. 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.
