I have been researching other hybrid clubs plus experimenting with various irons. One must keep in mind that the shorter back swing will most likely result in a shorter shot although using a hybrid makes up the difference. I have discovered also that using a hybrid with higher lofts from 37 degree to the 55 degree can cause some people more frustration. If lifting out of the shot just before contact is a habit off and on, then scalding the shot farther away from the target is the horendous result. One would be better off using higher lofted irons, say down to the 7 or 6 iron where that thin strike would not send the ball forward out-of-control as much. I have found having midsize or jumbo grips helps in maintaining a square club face at ball contact even with irons. As long as one sets the hands on the club properly and gets them back to the same address position at contact, the ball will move forward on a straight path. Again, to repeat myself from a previous blog, no body rotation results in better contact for the average recreational golfer. This swing very closely resembles the Natural Golf swing of Moe Norman one can view on their website except for the 'holding on' position through impact with the ball. I intend on checking into the Natural Golf swing to see if I can schedule a comparison demonstration to what the Natural Swing is today in 2011.
