Got the Ping G410 3,4 and 5 hybrids 3 years ago and live them. I use players irons and don't love the lack of height of my 4 and 5 irons so I keep them in the locker until I play very windy days or links courses. I still have 3 wood and after my hybrids my first iron is my 6 iron. Was looking at z driving iron but I can play a low shot with my 3 hybrid when I want.

Wilson ?

Always enjoy your vids Hannah - thanks

I never thought about trying out the different neck options - thanks!

Don’t forget short game , probably more important than distance off the tee . Great video Hannah , very informative.

Best video out there. Hands down. Finally someone answered all my questions.

Just got fit into MMT graphite. Loved the feel, height and distance

My 9w replaces 4 iron/hybrid. I have it a bit shorter with a ton of hot melt, swing weight is E4.

I have a 7 wood and play at St Andrews. It’s fine to play but you do have to be aware the wind. Fortunately, I can knock it down so it is still a great option. I would only stick my 3 iron back into my bag if it’s really windy. BTW, I would love to try a 9 wood too 😉

I'm a bit weird - and maybe just not very good? But I can hit a driver around 300 yards in the air - 360 ish with a decent amount of roll if I hit a draw. But I can only hit my 7-iron around 150 carry. My irons have been a huge disappointment to me for years as I think I should be getting more distance than that, considering my driving. I play off 9, BTW.

Great & informative video. I've just ordered a no.5 hybrid to replace my 5 iron so this video was really helpful. Hannah you look amazing...would you recommend the Zoe app as I really struggle with my weight & nutrition?

I think you're right Hannahs, there is no right or wrong answer, I've found weather conditions on the day become an important factor, on those windier summer days I often put my 4i back in the bag instead of the 4 hybrid, the lower flight of the iron really works into a stiff wind on those long par 4's and short par 5's.

Honestly didn’t know it was an additional penalty shot for every two club lengths fron an unplayable lie. Thought it was drop back along the lie for one penalty shot.

Dropped 3 and 5 wood last year, went 4 and 7 wood, swapped 4 iron for 4 hybrid (mostly for in rough). 7 wood particularly has been a game changer, now 11 handicap from 15 a year ago, thise 180-200 shots are so easy to hit now!

Thanks for the vlog, been wanting to see one of these for ages. I always end up with hybrids as they seem more versatile, but I also carry a 5 wood (Adams Tight Lies 2 - very shallow) for longer fairway shots. My only downside when I see reviews like this is how expensive new clubs are!

I just need you on the course to remind me!! great advice

I love my 7 wood.

just turned 69...After years of messing with hybrids from 18-26 degrees, they are all out of the bag now; too much inconsistency in carry distance and not enough spin. I'm currently carrying driver, 3 wood; Mavrik 16.5 and 21 fairways; and Qi10 24 degree 9 wood. [Then 6-PW irons and 3 wedges.] The Callaway fairways are super easy to hit but I went with the Qi10 for the 9 wood as it has a little deeper face; so I'm less likely to catch the ball too high on the face out of the rough. Also went with a mid bend shaft to minimize the ballooning. Oh and it spins like a champ. Yardage wise I use the 7 wood for my 4 iron and 9 wood for my 5 iron. I use the traditional 6 iron as a multi purpose club, often almost like a "rescue" club that I can work any number of ways (left, right, low) that I can't with a wood or hybrid. I think a golfer at ANY level is missing a trick if they don't have a 7 or 9 wood in the bag; especially if they are a "picker" or a "sweeper". They are simply too easy to hit...like cheating easy to hit. We've seen them in the bags of prominent pros in all of the majors thus far' this year and there is a reason for that.

congratulations; you look very ggod. I believe you shaved off some a little bit of weight ! :)

I play with hybrids for my 4 and 5 iron never thought about a 7 wood before very interesting

Probably Callaway heaven wood. Combo of 5&7 fairway wood. I also have 3 hybrid for special circumstances (in the rough)..

Great video again,I'm 55 play off 14,put a 7 wood in my bag last year and absolutely love it,175 carry off fairway and great out of the semi.

I spend quite a bit of my limited brain power on this topic. I used to carry a 3H, but now I use a 7W. I used to carry a 5i, but now use a 5H. My battle ground is a forgiving 6i or 6H. I can always hit the 6H, but my ego wants to carry the 6i.

What would you recommend a high handicapper struggling with long irons to use?

Love the video Hannah, more food for thought!!! I'm one of those you described in the video, don't have irons above a 7 iron, use 4, 5 & 6 hybrids and also use a 3W, 5w & 7w. I pay mostly on a links course so do tend to swap clubs about depending on the weather. I am currently looking at having a mini driver and removing my driver and 3W.

Just splurged on OnOff 4 and 5 hybrids (they’re a brand marketed by Daiwa Corporation), to replace my 4 and 5 Cobra irons. Been playing my best rounds since. I used to carry a Callaway Heaven Wood and I might have to look for a more modern 7 wood soon, judging by what you’ve shared here. Thanks so much for putting this together. Oh, and love your new look. Way to go!

7wood 5hybrid and mini driver the best clubs to have in the bag

Top of the bag are Ping G430 5w, 7w and 9w. Very happy with them so far. I have the 5w turned down to 17 degrees, plays like a high launch 3w. I prefer the launch of the 9w to a hybrid here on the parkland courses of the US.

Driver - 4wood- 3hyb@19° and then 4iron@21°, I miss having a 2iron on windy days but the strong lofted 4iron isn't that much shorter.

Definitely agree that if possible trying these clubs "on course" is better than hitting from a perfect lie on a range mat. I seem to remember hybrids used to be called rescue clubs: Rescue as in not in the fairway. Personally, I've always been a better/straighter iron player than a wood player, but as time goes by I'm now having to consider lofted fairway woods to keep my distances and gapping as swing speed declines. Good video as always, Hannah.

Have u tried the Callaway Apex UW Hannah?

Longest iron is a 7. hybrids 6-4 3wood driver. Swinging 80mph.

Just added a 4 hybrid as me and long irons just don't work! Really helped the gapping.

Great video, food for thought.

70 year old, 51 year PGA Professional; Driver, 5/7/9 G425 fairways, 5/6/7 G425 hybrids, Mizuno 923 HL irons 8-G, works for me!

I put a 7w in my bag a couple of years ago when I had a shoulder replacement. It's the favorite club in my bag on most days.

That was interesting, good work Hannah. I'd have to say that the long iron is not for me. I'd like to get my hands on a 7 wood and see what's what. They've become very popular lately in my circles and with my component supplier. My longest iron is currently the 5.

Hello. I'm a lifetime Golf Pro with 45 years of competitive golf experience. For 35 years I have carried 1 iron and 2 iron, very rarely and only for very specific courses would I introduce a 3 or 5 wood. Never a 7 wood or a hybrid. However I'm now 56yo, and I have noticed that my gap between driver and a reliable long iron, has grown. Having already switched out my irons and ditched the 1,2,and 3 irons. In there place I inserted a PING G425 3 wood, a PING G425 7 wood with a 3 wood length shaft. I have also added a 17* PING i20 hybrid. I'm thrilled with the results. Not only did I fill some distance holes, but by experimenting with a variety of shafts, and adjusting face and lie and loft angles, I have also added some right to left shots, which I haven't had from this distance in at least 6 years. It's super fun to find clubs that are easy to hit, that breed confidence and lower scores. I'm stoked with my additions !!

I'm going to remove the 6i and 5i. I thought I needed to keep them in the bag. I hardly use them. I use a Cobra King F7 4Hy fujikura 65 stiff shaft. It's a new found connection. Definitely my favorite club in the bag.

👍👍

After driver I go to a 4-wood that's 16.5° (Callaway calls it a High Loft 3W - but c'mon...it's just a 4-wood) and then 7-wood. I also carry a 5-iron that's quite strong and close to the loft of the 7-wood, and I like that for lower shots, punch outs, and longer par 3's where there's trouble left, as I can hook the 7-wood sometimes. I've never gotten on with hybrids very well, though I've had them in the bag before and played ok with them. They're just nowhere near as easy to hit as the 7-wood. And it's far easier for me to flight the 7-wood down than to try to hit an iron or hybrid higher. And it's simple to hit a fade with. It's real weapon for me, the 7-wood. I think it just suits my game and I feel very comfortable and confident with it. And I know a lot of players feel the exact same way about their hybrids or their long irons. Try everything. Fail. Try again, Fail again. Then find it. Win! And then...fail again!

7wood Areojet has been a great introduction to my bag probably the only club I can shape for that 140 -160 mtr approach. Recently I got a left/right hand chipper From TEMU of all places for $20. took the 4 hybrid out instant success. I'd tried chippers before with zero success, this one has saved me more than once on the first game.

I love my 7 wood. Carry it 200 yds. Xd

I have irons through 4 iron. I have a 3 hybrid. I've gone back and forth at to after I should get a 4 hybrid but I really like my 4 iron. Then I have essentially a 4 wood because I just got it so much better off the fairway than a 3 wood

In my bag I have Driver, 2-PW hybrids that range 17°-47° in loft. 50°,54°,58° wedges, and putter. I have always liked the smaller head size of hybrids reminds me of the laminated maple fairway woods of years ago.

I like hybrid over fairway woods. My issue recently is what with irons with stronger lofts, some manufacturer still use the old lofts. My ^ iron loft has a loft of 5 hybrid. I tried 6 hybrid but it was going same yardage as 7 iron with similar loft. I have slower swing speed. My clubs tend to bunch together. Is common rule for club for gapping a club?

Great video! I game a 5wood, then 4, 5 hybrid. Had a 3 wood but had a hard time hitting it off the deck - never outperformed my 5W. My instructor said I didn't have the swing speed to make it work. Wasn't personal - its why I got a lesson, to figure stuff out. His point was the same as yours in the video. Each person's game/swing is unique and the task is to find the equipment that will make your game best. I pulled the 3W out of the bag and am still trying to fill that 14th spot. Keep going back/forth between 7W, 3h, or maybe another wedge. 🤔

Driver, 3wd 5wd 4hybrid, for me, I upgraded from the Taylormade M4 range, to the Mizuno ST-Max, the technology advancement is amazing, the hybrid 5wd and 3wd launch so easily from the Deck without ballooning, the Driver that has the same shaft length as the Taylormade M4 driver which gives a superb balance with the new head shape and weighting is an absolute weapon, it sits beautifully behind the ball, the forgiveness is incredible, it's versatile enough to hit low cuts and high bomb draws.

Hi Hannah I play 7iron to pw with a 4, 5 hybrid and do this for more consistency your so right. Great video 😊
