One feature of the hybrids that makes decisions easier especially with the hockey-like hybrid golf swing is the type of club to purchase. A shaft that has just a bit of flex works great. Someone ordering a S or Stiff shaft would have to have a very pronounced swing speed. For most everyone a R Regular shaft at the highest level will function fine. There are various levels of R and S shafts so the level of R just before the first Stiff shaft on the standard scales is what I would recommend. The goal of the swing is to get the club face onto the ball square during the swing and holding it there past the ball for a few inches. One does not want the club head rotating around with the hockey-like hybrid swing. Look again at my impact position and you will see I purposely keep the club head square through impact so the ball flies straight. Lately I have been using a variety of hybrids and they all work about the same. The key in striking shots solidly is the hitting down on the ball, leaving just a minor divot. Trying to sweep the ball off the ground usually results in a weaker shot that won't travel as far, plus there is the chance of topping it slightly. Any questions you might have can be emailed to jscott2844@wi.rr.com Starting out this hobby with hybrids is quite economical too when one finds the price of hybrids to be under $50 per club. I have seen top brand names for nearly $200, but the decision to go that route is surely individual. The sites I will offer on this blog will have hybrids at very reasonable prices plus they are made of quality material. Soon I may decide to offer one hybrid style as I am researching costs at this time.
