Late to the party but great info JKM. I have the opposite issue where my long irons are fairly solid but struggle with the 3 hybrid (overall contact and inconsistent ball path). Your tip with trying to still hit down on the hybrids and allowing the anatomy of the club face do the work is spot on.

Jonathan great job! I agree with Anthony. You really helped me with earlier videos. Specifically the grip. I watch videos on golf all the time and know the instructors on KZfaq and they need to look out for you! Clear and concise. The instructions work. No long delay in getting to the key message. Good for you Jonathan.

Great lesson! love the channel...I have a habit of picking my irons clean off the turf ( I need to force myself to take a divot )...I get a lot more consistent distance and stronger ball flight with my 5 hybrid ...it is so much easier to hit my 175 to 180 target. I will use the same advice for long irons as my 6iron (hit down a bit to take a divot) because sometimes it goes the same distance as my 7iron with the way I hit it currently...I need to constantly remind myself that hitting down lets the club hit the sweet spot of the club instead of the bottom of the club.

not many coaches out there actually know that all clubs off the deck should be swung with negative attack angle at contact..it's proven in the data of all the tour players. kudos for pointing that out. i just wanted to ask, as the title mentions iron vs hybrid swing; is there actually a difference in the swing?

Is there any change in ball position or swing technique when hitting short iron hybrids (e.g. 7. 8, 9, PW)?

Enjoyed those tips how fast was your club head speed, and at what speed should you give up on the 3 iron thanks

@JKMGolf 11 ай бұрын

My driver club speed is 120-123 on average. I think if your speed is not high enough to hit your 7iron at least 160 yards then it will be difficult to get a 3 iron in the air enough

@gwendolynhenson2889 Жыл бұрын

Great explanation! Do you believe hybrids are helping amateurs in general? Have you considered to do a video comparing the use of a hybrid vs fairway woods? Hitting the 3 wood for example, is the most difficult for me. Thanks for the great videos!

@JKMGolf Жыл бұрын

I do believe hybrids help because the way it is designed helps launch the ball higher. The reason a 3-wood is difficult for most amateurs is because the lack of loft on the club. Unless you swing the club fast enough it will be difficult to launch the ball high enough to take advantage of the club. You may find your hybrid go further than your 3 wood at times and that is because the launch with the hybrid is higher

@flippperboy 2 жыл бұрын

Can you show us how to hit down lightly, medium and hard?

@richie8240 3 жыл бұрын

5 iron comes-out far too low and barely further than my 6. Same loft hybrid is up and flying and almost doubles the distance gap from 7 to 6 and now from 6 to hybrid. Never try a 5 iron to the green - it will bounce right off the back. Hybrid descends down and holds. And the added advantage it is my go-to club under trees for a pop-out back into the fairway. No brainer!

They do but not off the grass and it’s been really hectic at the ranges so there isn’t much space to do filming. They even have restrictions where they block every other hitting bay so people don’t get too close.

Would a windy day influence your decision to put the 3-iron in your bag instead of the hybrid?

@JKMGolf Жыл бұрын

That is more personal preference and based on the individuals game. For me I use a 2 iron because a hybrid spins a lot and launches too high for me

Hi! I really like your content, but I could not disagree more with this videos message. I think it’s completely the opposite. A long iron is the safety zone, and I’m by no means a good long-ironplayer. I tend to hit all my clubs a bit thin. If I do that with a 3iron It just flies low and the carry and total distance is punished. With a hybrid though, there is always the change of topping the ball like 20 meters. I do have hybrid in the bag but every time I think of hitting it id rather go with 4-iron because I’m afraid of the topped shot that is so devastating for the score.

You can disagree but you are wrong. A miss hit on a hybrid will carry longer than a miss hit on an iron

@infriad 3 жыл бұрын

@@3spressoShot ofc they will! But that does not mean hybrids are easier to hit in general. Topping a longiron is far less likely than with a hybrid.

@3spressoShot 3 жыл бұрын

@@infriad yea but a fat or thin shot happens much more often than topping. And in that the hybrid rules. If you hit fat on a hybrid it will bounce off the ground and still make decent contact with a ball. A long iron will just become a shovel
