Category: Hybrids
Hybrid clubs are the new wave of golf equipment, replacing long irons with easier to hit, yet still versatile clubs. This category is for articles, reviews and information on bybrid clubs from TaylorMade, Callaway, Ping, Nike and others.
Louisville Golf continues its tradition of putting a modern face on classic persimmon woods with its Hy Lofters Hybrid. Louisville says the clubs:
combine both fairway wood and iron design into one solid utility club. It is the first hybrid club manufactured out of Persimmon wood. Persimmon is known for feel and accuracy, a premium for this category of clubs that replace the lower, harder-to-hit irons. The Hy-Lofters, offered in three lofts (21, 24, 27), incorporate a heavy Brass soleplate which greatly lowers the center of gravity, resulting in quick, high launches for soft-landing approaches. They are effective from both the fairway and off the tee as an alternative to the driver as an accuracy option.

While no one really knows what they are, hybrid clubs are carving out a nice niche
I replaced my long irons with high lofted woods and hybrid clubs last summer. It was a great move. Because I am not particularly long off the tee, I was always hitting long irons for approach shots on par 4s. The lofted woods and hybrids took a lot of pressure off that part of my game. Suddenly, I was putting for birdie several times a round.
