I must confess it’s only recently that I’ve started to get on better with my hybrid clubs off the fairway. I always struggled with the idea: they’re not a wood, but they’re not an iron… and yet you’re supposed to play them like an iron. It boggled my golf brain. But what’s undeniable is how popular hybrids are, precisely because of that mix. They offer maximum value from a single club.
And that got me thinking. I was playing at a very low key course where I can just play in gym gear, when it came to me, golf culture itself needs to find its hybrid club.
