    Love Dan, very likeable presenter. Love the other lads too, but it's nice to have the contrast of the different styles. Dan's a great addition to the channel, and now it's like he's always been here. Keep it up GetUpDan :-)

    LOL... That intro... These little tests are gems. True gems. I don't know how many other people are doing these kinds of deep dive compares in club choices... Never thought about a 7 wood, but hey... now I know why people might game them and I would consider testing it!!!

    Great video. I went for a fitting at the Titleist fitting centre at Craigielaw, Scotland yesterday and had the same dilemma for my fitter Graeme. He solved it brilliantly; fitted for irons in a regular shaft, ball speed 110 mph across the range with peak height 80 feet. Fitted for a 23-degree hybrid, regular shaft, ball speed 115mph, peak height 78 feet. Next we tried a 21-degree hybrid - 117 mph not enough of a difference to maintain peak height which dropped. So Graeme fitted me into a 5 fairway wood with STIFF shaft to take speed OFF - resulted in ball speed 120mph, peak height 78 feet. So my carry between every club from 5 wood to 60-degree lob wedge is now between 10-12 yards. So, (theoretically at least), I can now hit and stop the ball on the first green at the Old Course across the Swilken Burn and stop the ball due to consistent carry and good (45 degree or so) angle of descent with every club from 190 yards out. And that is why going to a good fitter is so important in getting fitted for clubs - different club set up (head size and shaft stiffness) to make each club deliver exactly what is needed for gapping.

    Do to father time passing I'm in that 20 degree hybrid for about 190 yards and a 15.5 degree fairway wood for the 205 yardage, but it's been working for about three years now. not sure about this year though, but they are both adjustable clubs and father time keep moving on. Good video post Dan, thanks.

    @JohnDavis-ol7qg 5 лет назад +2

    I love this. I just bought a Honma TW737c 21° 7 wood and love it. Perfect for my 185 yd carry shots and love the high ball flight. Great video.

  • @ryang5230
    @ryang5230 5 лет назад +9

    Surely the fact that your hitting such a consistent distance with the hybrid is a huge plus. You were 2 yards between longest and shortest.

    Great comparison Dan! I tried some hybrids 6 years ago and struggled with them, I have a 9,7, 5, and 3 wood and find them easier to hit

  • @Jaijay35
    @Jaijay35 5 лет назад +1

    Perfect timing this video, I did a fitting this week with exactly the same clubs I ended up choosing the hybrid purely because it was easier to hit being a shorter club although I lost 5-10 metres I kept it in the fairway more with the hybrid, this club will now fill the gap between my 3 Wood and 4 Iron. Cheers Dan.

  • @alanwaterworth6464
    @alanwaterworth6464 5 лет назад +1

    Totally agree with you on the 5 wood Dan, while Marks rinky game is a great ad for hybrids, I prefer the 5 wood off the fairway or out of the rough for the 190-220 shots, just because of how the club sits behind the ball. To be honest though I was wondering if hoovering the fairway was part of the game improvement advice :)

  • @Calens001
    @Calens001 5 лет назад +2

    So interesting this, having moved from a 19 degree hybrird to an 18.5 degree 5w.... great video. I gained a bit more control, and distance, even though I didn't expect both.

    Great info Dan, just replaced my Taylormade 7 wood with a PXG 22 Hybrid. Results have been more control, but a 10 yard loss in yardage. Love this Tensei in the hybrid. Did buy a SZ Epic flash 5 wood that I lofted up to 19 degrees with a D setting hitting that about 225 yds. at the standard setting i was losing it to the right, has the Hzddus smoke S70. Keep up the great work guys. Aloha Rob

  • @jasonprice9823
    @jasonprice9823 5 лет назад +3

    I swear you lads have something tapped to my brain. I’ve been debating changing my 19 degree hybrid for an 18 degree 5 wood.

    • @justinstephenson9360
      @justinstephenson9360 5 лет назад

      I carry both but have lofted the 5w down to 17 degrees, they go very different distances. The hybrid is a consistent 195-200 yard club (up to 210 off the tee) whereas the 5w gives me an extra 10-15 yards (a little more off the tee). If I was changing my bag I would definitely consider a 7w as a hybrid replacement. I will never drop the 5w, it is fantastic for long par 3s (220 yards+) and short par 4s (anything up to about 350 yards leaves me a wedge into green)

    • @simonhague2674
      @simonhague2674 5 лет назад +1

      Hi Jason,
      I switched my 19 degree hybrid out (had a tendency to hook it) and tested both a 5 and 7 wood - ended up with the 7 wood as the most comparable distance but with a higher ball flight.

  • @kenoath007
    @kenoath007 5 лет назад +2

    Good work Dan! My old King Cobra 7W has been my favorite club for many years. I recently purchased a couple of new hybrids and am so far loving them. If Cobra made a 17 degree one length Hybrid I'd insta' buy one just to try it.

    Its all personal preference at the end of the day isn't it,I've always been a wood over hybrid kinda guy. But I don't have the money to pay for new equipment. I don't need to in order to enjoy my golf. The weather, course condition,wether I'm swinging well, and the company I'm in is the main factor for me enjoying my golf.

  • @jimpowell2296
    @jimpowell2296 Год назад

    I replaced my callaway big Bertha 21 degree hybrid with a callaway rogue 7 wood. I wish I would have made this switch a few years ago. The 7 wood is easier to hit, looks great sitting behind the ball. It launches higher, lands softer, and goes straighter. I now carry driver, 3 wood, 7 wood and 5 hybrid. I have been able to put another wedge in the bag for certain courses and take it out for other courses. So, with 7 wood I add or subtract different clubs to my bag as to where I play dictates.

    Hi Dan, how about a test between a Mizuno CLK 3 hybrid (19 degrees) and a 19 degree 5 wood. Be interested in the stats. Bet they would be similar to this test video. One question; Which do you find easier to hit off the deck, in dry, hard conditions and wet, soft conditions?

  • @robjelley1138
    @robjelley1138 5 лет назад +1

    Great vid. What are you thoughts about the versatility of both clubs I play a 21 hybrid and can hit it out of some relatively funky lies. Wood a 5-7 wood perform in those situations?? (Don’t always find the fairway 😂)

  • @safetyscrewmarket
    @safetyscrewmarket Год назад

    I love my M6 22 deg 4 hybrid. I easily get 200yds with nice ball flight out of it. For 2nd shot par 5s I pull out my M6 16 deg 3 wood and get 230yds + :-)

  • @martinandrew2235
    @martinandrew2235 5 лет назад

    Hi Dan, what would be the outcome if you put the 7 wood shaft in the hybrid, taking the length variable out of the equation. This then would allow direct comparison of the head designs, especially concerning descent angles and which would hold greens better from 200 yard range.

  • @Kavenaudet
    @Kavenaudet 5 лет назад +1

    One words consistency
    If we look at the results with your hybrid all shot are 203-204
    So you can say its yours 200y carry
    With the 7 woods you have 203 to 212
    A gap between make the green or not

  • @jedidiahwest4619
    @jedidiahwest4619 5 лет назад +1

    I game the 7wood because I get lost trying to line up a hybrid. In my head it’s not a iron but it’s not a wood. Those things are just confusing to me.

  • @gee2478
    @gee2478 5 лет назад

    isn't the hybrid more versatile...hitting out of rough...hitting rescue shots out of rough...etc. i am a mid handicapper but i play with ping eye 2s! there needs to be a good video on utility irons vs hybrids vs 7 wood. though i use eye2s...if i was to buy new clubs i prefer smaller heads. i don't particularly like hybrids or 7 woods or even utility irons...maybe i just need to upgrade to ping blueprints and play the 4 iron as is. that still leaves me with a tough choice from 24 degrees and down...
