I have recently gone back to by fairway woods. Although I wanted to use hybrids and have purchased a set, the old faithful 7 wood still does it for me. So although hybrids are preferred I think it is very important to hit the clubs, weather it new irons, hybrids, or drivers and go with the feel, not the name brand.

Dante:

There is no substitute for first hand knowledge. I can tell you this, a 1 or 2 hybrid will most likely produce a lower ball flight than a 5 wood even though the distance may very well be the same.

I’m still trying to figure out when I would use a 1 or 2 hybrid and if that would take the place of a 5w in my bag… I guess it’s just a matter of getting out there and hitting the clubs and measuring off distances..

Very interesting article on hybrid lengths. I
generally tend to fudge about 1/2″ on hybrids
versus. Another way to look at it is to consider
the hybrid a replacement for a fwy wood, thus
having a longer club length. another thing is
that like an iron, a hybrid is a control club and
tghe longer the length, the less control.
