How do you use hybrid clubs in golf?

Question

I have a 5/27 degree club. What does that mean, and when would I use it?

I am a new golfer, and I don't know where to use the 5/27 degree hybrid club. Take into consideration I am a female, so I don't hit as far.

Answer 1

It has the same loft as a 5 iron. So use it from the same distance as your normal 5-iron.

Answer 2

The 5 is the number of the club (just like a 3 wood or 6 iron) and the 27 is the loft of the club. The trick is figuring out how far you consistantly hit it then use it from that distance. Hit several balls on the range with your hybrid to figure that out.

Answer 3

Use it like you would your 5 iron. Set up like you would a 3 wood perhaps putting the ball a bit more in the center of your stance. I use a 18 and a 22 degree - I have mothballed by 3 and 4 irons and hit the hybrids great - long and straight.

Answer 4

i might want to recommend perhaps a Taylormade Burner 08 hybrid. i exploit one and it really works wonders. Plus it prices merely round $one hundred. yet when I had to verify on both the Titleist or Nike, i might want to say the Titleist because in my opinion, Nike doesnt make strong hybirds.

Answer 5

If you can afford hybrids, then you can afford a lesson with a club pro. That would be best.

Answer 6

it is the slant/angle of the head. prob like a three or 4iron. from about 175 yards away
