August 6 Grand Lake Golf Report
Why don't golfers use hybrids for all their clubs?
The usual practice is to use hybrids to replace irons that are difficult for the golfer to play effectively. The choice becomes based on the golfer’s skill level. For example, professional golfers, who have lots of talent and lots of time to practice, tend to use irons rather than hybrids. They want the extra control provided by an iron and generally have no trouble playing long- and mid-irons.
High skilled amateurs and even some pros are replacing long irons (2,3) with hybrids. They trade precision for ease of use.
Low-skilled amateurs or those recreational golfers that don't have much time to practice will often replace long irons and mid-irons (4,5,6) with hybrids, keeping shorter irons (7,8,9) for the precision.

Golf Quote of the week
Reverse every natural instinct and do the opposite
of what you are inclined to do,
and you will probably come very close to having a perfect golf swing.
