ABOUT DANNY
-----------------------
Thanks for stopping by. I created this website as a resource just for you to support you on your golfing journey as I know how tricky learning this game can be…to say the least!
I personally found learning the game too long and difficult in the early days. I read all the books, watched all the videos but my game was not improving. Then after studying various forms of neuro science, motor learning, psychology and personal development in less than two years I went from struggling golfer to the final stage of the Open Championship.
On TH-cam and my personal website (www.dannymaude.com) I will bring you the most up to date training, training that is getting tangible results for my clients right now. I don’t know where you are in your golfing journey, you could be just starting out or maybe your body isn’t as flexible as it once was or you’ve got ambitions to slash your handicap. Wherever you are I’ve created a place here you can learn, share your ideas, ask questions and get all the support you need to enjoy this great game.
Be prepared though. If its a quick fix you are after Im not your man. Here I will give you step-by-step advice that you can take straight to the practice ground and apply to the course but it will require you to get stuck in, screw up…a lot, practice some more and then watch those scores tumble
I’ve had the pleasure of coaching thousands of students all around the world and if you are up for the challenge and are ready to get in the game…LETS GO TO WORK!

I use my 3 iron all the time. It is great at raking the coals in the back patio fire pit. I get much more enjoyment out of that than watching my shots dribble down the fairway, or slice into the deep woods. :-) Hybrids rule! Good advice Danny!
Jim Saddler love it!!
Lmao
Jim Saddler 🤣
I've come to be able to hit 3 iron well. Hybrids topped 99 times out of 100
I carry a 19, 22 and 26 Nike CPR hybrids in my bag and it has totally changed my game ! So easy to hit and they land softly !
I use 3/4/5/6/7 hybrids and it really changed my game, 71 years young
Michael Sweeney, good on you mate👍🏻
I agree with you. I am also in my early 70s and love my hybrids. I now have a 5 (favorite club to hit around 150 yards especially from the rough), 6, 7, and 8 hybrids because I was always inconsistent with my mid irons.
Me too, 72 yrs young and I hit the ball effortlessly with a hybrid and it goes so far, I have removed my 3,4 and 5 irons from my bag as they are now totally pointless .
I am 70 yrs old and am a long iron player all my golfing trimester however since watching this video about hybrids I have purchased from my club Proffesional two hybrids I tried them first for a week (Marcus is very accommodating) low and behold I can stroke my hybrid from the fairway and rough most of the time (arthritis permitting) I can the ball up in the air quickly and even if I duff! It the ball still travels far better than my four iron though I sill have uses for my four iron
Cheers Danny keep up the good work look forward each week to your training even at 70 plus
Alan Gregory
Just to say, I’m 75 and bought my first hybrid (4) and before even going to the course, I watched a Danny Maude video to move me in the right direction. I have learned from each video I’ve watched and referred these videos to many of my friends.
Thanks for your support Randy
I used long Irons when I was in my 30's, 40's snd 50's. My swing speed is slowing down. Now I am 65 and looking at adding a 4-wood and 7-wood and eliminating anything above a 5-iron. Thanks for this video, Danny.
I’ve just done something similar to my Dad. He now has a 9 wood
2 Utility and 4 Utility have changed my game so much. Avoided them because everyone said higher handicappers shouldn’t play them. Got so fed up with my Hybrids that I figured I had nothing to lose. Haven’t looked back. 2 iron is easily my favourite club in my bag and the one I get most excited about pulling out now.
When I started out golfing at 40, I had a 3 iron, that was very difficult to hit. I started later in life and being a lefty I used mostly men’s used equipment or whatever we could find. I became very frustrated and gave up for a while, as I was an avid bowler and very good at it, averaging over 200. When I retired, I tried to play more golf, and as I progressed I did improve. I got rid of the 3 iron and went to a new set of Ladies Adams left-handed with hybrids and they seem to work for me within 110 yards. Some times I still use my 7 wood in the fairway, which also has a lower loft and if I hit it properly it does well. I do however struggle using a 5 wood in the fairway. And I’m more consistent with the 7. I only wish I had started playing golf when I was much younger rather than bowling.
Great that you are in the game now, the beauty of this game is you can play for many years to come
Just bought a complete set of hybrids including P, S & L wedges. I'm 70 and these clubs have really helped me lower my handicap!
I like them all, sure there are 2 hybrids in my bag but let's be honest guys and gals...
The best part of it is we are all playing golf, getting outside, getting fresh air. Golf is one of my great loves.
John Zero Signal very well said John
John Zero Signal Ditto. 😊
Im struggling on my hibreeds , Im not new to the game but I have not played for 18 years, now Im already a senior at 63, I have learned a lot from you, now I will try to apply it, all the basics that I should have learned when I started playing golf. thanks a Lot Danny .
my pleasure Abel, I will look to come up with a new video for playing hybrids
To add to my prior comment I have now gone to hybrids throughout my bag down to the pitching wedge so that the only irons I now have are gap-wedge through lob-wedge. At 85y/o I have lost my club-head speed. I really like you site. Keep up the good work.
David Zoller I think that’s a great idea, I wish more players would do the same
Hybrids for me I have handicap 36. Ladies.
Danny, I haven't played in over ten years..My sons are intermediate golfers. Now, since watching many of your videos, I am ready to get back into the game and am ready to show the young bucks, that old guys can be a hand full, especially around the green. I love your inspiring and entertaining videos. THX from North Carolina.....
My pleasure Gregory, good luck, hope it goes well
@@DanielMaude Hitting underneath the ball when at the driving range....? Any videos on this problem....and it is consistent. I'll go back to your video feed and research, but I haven't found one that addresses my glitch. If anyone can tutor me, it's you. Kind Regards....Greg Saylor NC
Playing catch up with your older videos and loving the content 👌
I switched out my long irons for 6H,5H,and 7W to great effect. As you say, I can still hit high or low and even shape the shots. My 6H has become my go to chipper as well. I picked Cobra because I really like the baffler rails.
I have just bought a hybrid Danny and the main reason was I can sill use my 4 iron but I struggle with the 3 iron. I see a lot of the guy's in my golf society have discarded their long Irons and replaced the with hybrids. So I thought I'll get one and thank god I did Its a big asset to have in the bag and its easy to hit I wish I'd bought one a couple of years ago.
Same with the professionals Nic, hybrids produce a better ball flight and are easier to hit
Thanks for your tips Danny - they’ve helped me a lot. I’ve gone the hybrid route and couldn’t be happier. 3-6 hybrids are TM aeroburner and 7-8 hybrids are Callaway Big Bertha. The callaways hit higher and straighter - easier to hit but harder to hit low shots, harder to shape shots.
I have a 5 and 6 hybrid which came with my bag. I have a 4 hybrid that was given to me. I am hot and cold with all three. I was told you have to take a divot in order to strike it well so I focused on that. I never really knew where my stance should be? You have helped me improve my game thus far with your chipping, irons, and sand trap videos that I cannot wait to try this one. The results I am used to are worm burners, or low line drives. Thanks!!!
My pleasure Dorothy, hope you are having a great weekend
Thank you for this. I've definitely been addressing and swinging my hybrid incorrectly all along. Looking forward to putting this into practice this weekend!
Thats great Steven, I look forward to reading how you get on
Hi Danny
I want you to know I watched several of your videos and went to play golf and had the
Best round ever from your brilliant clear instruction. I was having trouble with my driver and after doing what you
Said I hit the ball off the tee the best in a year. I love your clear instruction and summary at the end. I even hit one
Of those difficult shots embedded in the deep grass around the green and popped it out perfectly landing it 6 ft
From the pin. You are my instructor from now on. Great work.
dee kotilainen, i really appreciate you taking the time to feedback...so great to hear
Ditto those comments Danny. Love your videos
I'm going to invest in a hybrid. The pros definitely outweigh the cons. I've been struggling to hit my long irons consistently. Awesome video , Danny!!
Great choice, very few pros now carry a 3 iron any more
@@DanielMaude Hi Danny..Tom OKeefe here. What is your feeling on same length irons like one iron advertise. Thanks
Thomas O'Keefe personally I’m not a fan but I don’t really know enough about them to really comment. I just wouldn’t want my wedges to be longer
I hit Cobra 3, 4, 5 and 6 hybrids (used ~$40-50) and they have greatly improved my shots in the 140-180+ distances, both off a short tee or fairways
Thanks Danny - swapped out both 3 & 4 irons for hybrid equivalent clubs. As you say versatility being the key reason - great advice. Great work!
KentGolfNut, that sounds like a great combo 👍
Thanks!
Really kind thank you
I’m new to golf and finding your videos really helpful so thanks a lot for that. I’ve got 3 to 9 irons in my bag as I want to learn them all but hybrid is truly the easiest to operate. Looking forward for more videos 👍🏻
Just bought an older m2 4 hybrid, one word.......amazing!!!! Straight everytime and 210 yds every shot!!
Why cant I hit my driver so straight??? Lol , maybe I will hop on a plane from Canada and take a lesson, GREAT vid as always, thank you
you would be very welcome Dean, have a look at one of my recent driver videos on how it to hit it straight, it should help
Hi Danny I have just purchased a 5 Hybrid well what a difference it has made I will not use my 5 iron anymore my Hybrid is so so much better to hit on the tee, on the fairway, even in the rough and will be purchasing a 3 Hybrid soon Thank you so much for the above video
Yes, I love a long iron but Im moving closer to purchasing a hybrid
Hybrid player here,great tip and it works for me for long and short game,4 iron never used and the 5 hardly touched.
George Smyth, sounds like you have it nailed...have you considered a 7 wood...great club if you struggle to hit high towering iron shots. It replaces a 3 iron
I’ve only been playing about 9 month, minus lockdown, starting to get a much better feel on my irons now, something clicked in past week or so and started getting ball up in air,cut out the slice on my driver, mostly, but terrified of my 3 hybrid and 3 wood cos I either top or slice or both. You’ve helped me a lot with rest of my game so far, pretty much took all my lessons from you,so I’ll take your advice on hybrid and give it a go. Got my first handicap 2 weeks ago, 41 😱😱so nothing too lose really. Cheers Danny
i love that feeling of the weight of the iron being swung and then how light it gets for a moment when you hit it right and the energy gets transferred into the ball. when i see that ball pop off into the distance with a hybrid it feels like someone else hit it.
Brilliant, thanks for sharing
I only have from 7 iron up to lob wedge. From 160 to 180 metres I have a 22 , 26 and 30 degree hybrid. Best decision I ever made. I got rid of my driver. I tee off with a 14 degree 3 metal. Hitting that upto 240 metre not yards. 18 degree 5 metal I can hit 210 but that is a very hard hit. But more often 190. Dropped my handicap 10 shots in as many months.
I am a beginner, having played golf mostly in the range for past 6 months. I am slowly converting all my long and short irons into hybrids
I used this method and it has really helped my game. since using your tips my game has improved greatly. thanks
roy lang that’s brilliant Roy, thanks for letting me know
Danny excellent information. As a 46-year-old who has never really played golf and picked up a pair of used clubs not even knowing what a hybrid was, I can tell you they are (as you say) more forgiving. Even though I was more intimidated and thought the club would be more difficult to hit, I found out the opposite to be true. Thanks your video, I now know why.
Thats great james, welcome to the game. Do you know what you have let yourself in for??? :)
Danny Maude Danny, hopefully we can have a good laugh on this. I’m such a boot, that I wasn’t even hitting a hybrid. I was actually hitting a my woods and thought they were hybrids. Realizing this, I went to the pro at our local country club and asked to borrow a hybrid. At first I wasn’t very good with it but after a few shots I really enjoyed hitting it.
James Bernthal, funny...they are pretty useful clubs
Hybrids all the way -- and have for some years. I have a slower swing speed and hybrids make golf fun. I still havea 5i and 6i in my bag but even they seldom get used.
Hybrids are awesome clubs, many top pros now have them in their bags
En español
I love my Hybrids! I'm not a great golf player, but it's helped me than trying to use my long irons
I think they are a great invention Michael, they are so much easier than a long iron to hit
I use my 3 iron on the fairway to be straight and low around 130 to 140 meters from the green, it works for me. Yes, above 150 meters I use a hybrid and that's okay for me, Thanks Danny, your golf lessons have helped me immensely and still doing so............trying to get the consistency right:) Great advice Danny.
And don't forget you can use your hybrid to putt, drive, loft, snooker, calculate algebra and get you out of speeding tickets.
Love hybrids, but love a good long iron shot so much. Long iron shots feel like golf.
joeleus nothing feels like a ripped hybrid
When I am walking a round I don't even carry a putter. The fewer clubs the better.
Christopher Haist that’s pretty confident 😁
Danny Maude nah, I just dont keep score...
Hi Danny just bought a new set of Taylor made P790 PW to 4iron but went for the gapr mid for my 3 iron,and loving it could never get on with hybrids. Loving your videos they have helped me a lot. Thanks
David Smith yes I love the irons style hybrid I use something similar too...thanks for sharing
I think the hybrid club is the golfer's best friend, especially the new golfer.
Me too, even the tour players love a hybrid club
Now I understand ball position, it has made my hybrids more playable. At 62 I have lost some power (Injuries) and this has helped.
Well done William, keep up the good work
And for those long iron haters out there, I heard some words of wisdom from an old timer: If you're out on a course during a lightning storm and you want to stay safe, just hold a 1 iron in the air... because even God can't hit a 1-iron!
Always enjoyed this quote 😁
This is a quote from one of the greatest and funniest pro golfers, Lee Trevino.
@@IABurns I was in Palm Springs at the old Dinners Club Tournament and walked around with Chi Chi he never stopped screwing with the gallery the caddies that was entertainment...
Told my golfing mate that one the other day and to my surprise he hadn't heard it before and got a laugh out of it. An oldie but a goodie.
Great videos, would like to see a few more slow action swing to watch where hands and club shaft are at striking the ball.
Ronald Wood thanks for the feedback Ronald, I will do
Hi Danny. I have just replaced my antique Carnegie irons with a second hand set that includes 3,4 and 5 Hybrids. Have only used once, but at 62 I found the Hybrid so much better and forgiving even when ball contact was poor. 👍
When you went into slo-mo around 4:50 I thought something bad was about to happen lol
Hybrid you video has help me to enjoy my golf again thanks. I have an hour every evening watching your videos
That is awesome! Great to have you here
A newer player. Thanks for the video. Very helpful.
Welcome to the game and this community Beverly...I look forward to supporting you along the way
I'm very new to golf (almost 2 months in) and am determined to master the long irons but I do love the hybrid. I used mine for the first time on the range this past week and it's so forgiving. I hit one almost as far as my 4 iron, around 190 and it's so much more forgiving on the mis shots as you stated. Hybrid is one of the coolest clubs.
Hybrids suit my game. It is the exrtra confidence they give me. Another great video.
Charles Harrison, thank you, what Hybrid combo do you use?
OK Danny, I will try using my hybrids more. When I got fitted a couple years ago, my instructor switched me to hybrid 3&4 (from my old 3&4 iron). I have never hit my hybrids as well. I am 57 but still have a pretty high swing speed. I will practice more, and reply about progress later.
Look forward to hearing how you get on
Play my 3 and 4 Ping hybrids. Love em.
Ping do do great Hybrids
@@DanielMaude I agree. I play the G410 hybrids (3 and 4); and can crush the ball long on both of them. ;-)
Danny excellent, I am 22 handicap who have got a set of cobra 1 length irons up to a 5 iron. The main problem with the Taylormade hybrids is the extra length of the 4 & 3 which I struggle to control
Danny - I am really learning so much from your videos, you make it easy to understand. I am a senior woman golfer, in my third year of playing 2 - 3 times weekly. My question is: I just purchased an entire set of hybrids (Senior Women’s), (3 through PW). I have used a three, four and five, and do quite well with my 4 & 5 but struggle with my 3. What is your suggestion for using the 3 and the 6, 7, 8, 9, and PW.
I’m 70 and have been hitting Hybrids for 5 years . This year I added a 5 , 6 and 7 Hybrid . They are great .
I'm a hybrid for sure, 4 hybrid consistently 190yds accurately.
I'm hitting a Callaway Utility prototype 21 degree, and a 5 hybrid. Utility club keeps ball low when necessary. Love them both.
4 Hybrid here, and then the next iron i have is 5. so techically got 4 downwards
So far, so good. I am amazed at the distance I get over my 4 & 5 iron with less effort. You nailed it on this one Danny.
Thank you Tim, happy to help
I love my hybrid. It's by far the best club in my bag....I get great distance on my H5 better than my 3 wood. Just hit the H5 the same way you would hit an iron. O.o crap I'll have to try the chipping thing, Thanks
Brilliant, thanks for sharing
Always had hybrids but for me they tend to go too high and that isn’t a good thing especially with a headwind. At the end of season 2017 I switched to a crossover 4 and this season I switched to a new V6 iron set from Wilson PW-4, Wilson V4 3 iron and a Srixon 2 iron and can do everything with them. ...high, low, chipping , punches, get out of trouble with lots of roll....Even the Srixon 2 iron is so easy to hit from the tee and from the deck. But I agree that hybrids are easy to hit and for a lot of golfers are the better option.But when you have a good swing and enough swingspeed and like the look of an iron more there are plenty of iron(like) options out there nowadays to chose from. Good video👍🏽
Raymond Poublon, really great thoughts...it sounds like you are a good ball striker
I’m more consistent in hitting hybrids than long irons👍
Buc Wild good choice, I think we will all be using them before long, even Tiger has one now
I'm a hybrid player 2,3,4,5. I like them a lot.
Joseph Rye cool, that’s a lot of hybrids
@@DanielMaude just for a laugh/testing a theory I'm thinking about going full bag of hybrids for a few rounds this upcoming season.
Hybrid yonex, love it.
Stephen Smith great clubs
Very comfortable using Titleist 962B 2 iron. Cant seem to work up to getting ride of 3-PW set.
Im sure it will come eventually Luis 😁. Theres no rush
needs shot tracer to get point across. I in fact do not carry a 5-3 iron. I use 9w 27* and 7w 21* (vsteel)
I love to get golfers into a 9 wood and a 7 wood, so easy to hit
My 4 iron is 25° so I play a 22° and a 19° hybrid. Really enjoy having those clubs. The 19° is a great club to play a low tee shot into the wind on short par 4s. The 22° feels like I could basically do anything with it, slinging draws, feathery cuts. Sometimes if I’m feeling a little off in my ball striking I play down the grip and just play a chippy cut from even 150 yards to greens. I absolutely love my hybrids even though I still use my long irons plenty.
I am comfortable with the hybrid as I have difficulty with irons
Gareth Machado popular choice Gareth
Same man. I can't seem to manage to hit the 3 or 4 irons. It's so weird
@@shakebooty hardest clubs to hit imo. Im about to remove my 4/5/6 iron and replace it with hybrids or woods.
@@Silenced_by_Utoob Done that already.hahahha
I love my hybrid! It saves me all the time and it's so versatile!
Danny, I am a Hybrid. Took my 5 iron up to my 3 iron out of my bag. As you mentioned, the weighting is so helpful to get the ball up. It also helps me to come out of the rough. Great tips in the video. Thank you so much for your time and teaching talents. Would love to have you as my swing coach, unfortunately the commute from the States is a killer
I am a long iron player can't seem to make a good solid d. Connection with hybrids
I personally love the feeling of a well struck iron shot, they are just a little difficult to get height with these days
I just bought a 3 Callaway Heavenwood hybrid off eBay for £30 and I love it. So much easier for a slow swing speed player and it goes so so far. Really love it
Great club
I was fitted by the CLEVELAND rep. I like them a lot but definitely need lessons. Swing speed is about 65-70..not getting consistent loft with the 4,5, but other than that everything goes straight.
Ken Morrell, sounds like a 7 wood or even 9 wood could help too
I have one hybrid club. It’s a Cobra One Length 3-hybrid. It has the loft of a 3 hybrid, but the shaft length of a 7 iron. Amazing club! Most consistent straight hitting club in my bag and I hit it consistently 200 yards.
3H & 4H
Tend to only use them if I've got a good lie. (Otherwise 5 iron)
Thanks for this I'll try to be a little bolder👍
meyogy, sounds like a good combo
Same for me other than having to use a 7 iron. nothing lower goes further or hit some kind of fat.
Just before Covid stopped play I had a complete set of irons custom made for me with 4i-PW. They transformed my game and my handicap was cut by 6 in 3 months to 16, my lowest for over twenty years.
But I could not get a 3 iron in the set. My go to long iron was my 3i and without it I suffered. Then I bought a Hybrid 3 and regained the wonderful feeling of stopping the ball on the green from 180+. Like you said there is no feeling in golf like a well struck long iron. Except a well struck hybrid.
Today I have ordered the 4 hybrid to match the first one and I can't wait to see what I can do with that. They are great clubs and as you say so versatile. I use mine for short chips from thickish rough just of the green. I use a putting stroke and my short game has improved no end. SO Yes, a huge thumbs up for hybrids.
I hit my long irons in play every time. My hybrid will let me down and cost me dear sometimes.
Ivor Smith, thanks for sharing. It’s been an interesting Poll, so many different opinions 👍
After 6 iron, I go to 6 hybrid, 4 hybrid, 5 wood. As a senior, I need the distance the hybrids offer. Also I can shape hybrids as well, easy draws and fades, stinger bullets. My brother recently got hybrids all the way to 9! Ditched all his irons except a couple of wedges. Probably the best tech in modern clubs.
Long iron! Can you make a video on how to hit a driving iron specifically off deck
Azlan, Tengku no problem, I will add it to the list
Absolutely love my hybrids ,so versatile and great in the wind. Great video Danny, I've watched it several times and shared your channel with friends.
Randy Mahony, very kind of you Randy, much appreciated
Long iron player because I can control it better. Hybrids go sideways.
Patrick Anlauf, it’s interesting, a lot of golfers are saying the same thing
Me too guys. 13hc, I can control my Yonex 3/4 MB irons. I’ll sacrifice 10 yards for accuracy every day.
Ben Berry, sounds good to me
@@DanielMaude Ping hybrids go straight
I'm 65 with a 15 index. Swapped out my 4,5 and 6 irons last year for hybrids. They are easier to hit, very forgiving and make the game much more enjoyable.
Brilliant Bradley, best choice
I hit my 3 iron better than my hybrid.
Al Vandersteen, that’s great then you must stick to the three iron...Player
Getting this exact problem with my long irons. Hit the driver on average 220-230, 7 irons around 130ish but as soon as the 5 iron and lower comes out the bag my confidence drops and catch them fat and thin with horrible low ball flight. Borrowed a 20deg hybrid for a shot today out of the semi rough and smashed it 180 yards on to the green!! Interested to try a few different ones out though as you've said to find the right one, but really thinking about swapping the 3 iron down to 5 iron for hybrids now.
John Stoneman I think that sounds like a really good idea
I don't understand the lure of hybrids. They feel like fairway woods to me and I never could depend on them.
Im personally not a fan as Im not as accurate with hybrids...they are just so much easier to launch
@glenn Watson .. are great for shot from the ruff … .much more forgiving vs. irons.
I’m a pretty awful golfer as I started this year and when I use my irons I can never get any sort of loft but when I use my hybrid I am able to get much more lift and carry
I abandoned my 3 and 4 irons years ago. I could never hit them consistently. I actually dreaded having to use them. I now use 4 and 5 hybrids and love them. Thank you for your videos. You explain things extremely well, and I have successfully applied many of the things I have learned from you.
Thats great to hear Lauren, thanks for sharing
Hybrid all the way. high long and straight. Hit a lot of greens.
E K, good choice
Danny Maude playing Callaway Edge 6, 5 & 4. Great clubs. Played Nike Sumo2 SQ and they were good. Never cared for the Taylormade but that was many tears ago. They are probably better design today. Ping hybrids look pretty sweet as well.
E K, they do in deed, thanks for sharing
i so agree sir, at 62 years of the golden years, 4 ping hybrids in my bag ,thanks pal
Lovely, thanks for sharing
The amount of saliva swallowed is enough to make a tiny hazard
Thanks for the co structure feedback 👍
I purchased a 5 hybrid an absolute game changer, they are just easier for me to hit straight, I bought a 4 and a 6 as well, highest iron in my bag is 7.
As usual, Danny... you have helped me out immensely with my golf swing. I've been playing in a 9 hole scramble every Tuesday evening and my shots have been getting better and better! Mixed in with a few wild ones, but mostly I'm hitting pretty good now. And that has helped our team immensely. I no longer feel like I'm a detriment to whatever 4-some I'm playing with! Thanks for everything. This latest video will help me even more, I'm sure!
I carry two Hybrids 19 & 22. They are great clubs for distance for slow swing speeds, though they can get you into trouble especially off bare lies.
Great video Danny. Cobra have a great range for slower swing speeds as do Cleveland. The shafts make all the difference with hybrids, as you say get fitted or a least try a lite flex.
Absolutely Paul, thanks for taking the time to share
Danny, I have been as low as a plus 1. Been playing at a high level for a long time. Resisted the hybrids for years but once I tried them I regretted waiting so long. Too many advantages to pass up. Love my Callaway Maverick Pro hybrids. Callaway is definitely the way to go nowadays. Great video as usual.
Absolutely Scott, I've got my new Callaway's on there way
Morning Danny, I use a 3 and 4 hybrid. I was fitted with Ping G400 by my pro at my golf club.
Charles Harrison, the G400 hybrids are really good
I am still trying to figure out which is which! Love your videos by the way. You have really helped me get started with golf!
Thanks William hope the video makes things clearer for you 👍
The hybrid revolutionized my game. I have a 20, 23 and 26 degree in my bag. Went from a 10 to a 8 handicap player.
I love both, my rescue set to 22* and my 3i. A 2i is great to practice with.
Great choice
Thanks Danny. I hit my iron 6 and 5 , not to bad 75 % better but my hybrid 5 , can't put up on the air, probably 20 times I used one was perfect, it looks was accident because never again. Thanks for your excellent videos. You are a very good coach. I learn a lot improving my golf thanks to you.
Used to love smashing a 4 iron, now I hit my hybrid as much as I can as I absolutely love it.
Chris Waller, me too
I like hitting both long irons and hybrids. It usually depends on my lie. I even putted with a hybrid (I had watched Brooks Henderson do this as some wonder why I watch a 'boring' sport like golf? If I didn't, I would not think I could use my hybrid as a putting/chipping tool.) and I has made a putt from the fringe scoring a birdie on a lagging hole. I prefer hitting a hybrid on thick, grassy rough and even took a shot from a fairway bunker with it as well as off the tee . Hybrids are very versatile and yes, I hit them like a wood or even like a 6 iron but I prefer irons on fairways and shallow cut rough. Depending the course or links I play, determines whether I keep my hybrid in the bag and occasionally switch it out with my 4 iron or 5 wood unless someone is willing to forget the 14 clubs in your bag only rule.
John Pfistner sounds like you have the hole thing sorted, thanks for sharing
Most of it has been trial and error. And a lot of time on the range. I enjoy your instructions! 👍
John Pfistner great to hear John, thanks
Hybrid player since a month ago. Love my 22 deg Ping G hybrid. Carry it about 180-200 meters. It replaced my 4 and 5 iron.
Christher Lenander, sounds perfect
Danny, Love your tips. It took me awhile to learn how to hit my 5 hybrid which is now my favorite club to hit. Used to hook it a lot so had to open the face at set up which lead to a square face at impact and straight shots . Stay safe and healthy.
Thank you Frank and you
Thanks for this one Danny, I'm just back into golf after a good few years away with a back injury so I missed the hybrid arriving. Nice clear explanation of the difference.
Stuart Hartley, my pleasure, great to hear you are back playing
I like hitting my 3 iron. Have been known to hit it 240 off the tee. With more consistancy than any wood or hybrid I hit
Thank you for all your help. You are down to earth and keeping it as simple as the game can be, but it's everything but simple. Aloha from Hawaii Island.
Aloha! Thank you for the comment 😁
