Best Women’s Hybrid Golf Clubs: Quick Menu
For several years, the hybrid has become a very popular club for female golfers, as they are a more forgiving replacement, especially for long irons. They are a cross between a wood and an iron but essentially resemble small headed fairway woods.
The wonderful thing about the hybrid design is you will hit the ball much higher, so shots coming into the green (particularly on long par 3s) stop quicker. The clubhead is shaped so that more weight is positioned low and deep, moving the centre of gravity down helps you hit the ball up.
What’s more, because the head is smaller and sleeker than a wood it gives greater shot-making versatility from a variety of lies. They are particularly effective (arguably more so than a more lofted mid-iron) from the rough as the head cuts through the grass effortlessly, making them a recovery savior.
Hybrids are either numbered with their direct long-iron replacement equivalent ie 5 (for 5-iron), 4 (for 4-iron) and so on, or they are marked with their degree of loft. A typical 5-iron hybrid would be around 25 degrees for example. Most manufacturers make women’s hybrids in a range of lofts all the way through from a 7-iron to 4-iron replacement, catering for all sorts of set choice make-ups.
