In regards to, why can’t I hit my hybrid clubs? One problem a lot of amateur golfers face with hybrids and long irons is that they set up too narrow. This makes it hard to make a full turn around your body and make a complete swing. Lastly, adjust your stance so you are about an inch farther away from the ball.
Subsequently, where do you play a hybrid in your stance?
Additionally, do you hit down on hybrids? Remember, you don’t hit down on your hybrid the way you do with your irons. This means you want more of a sweeping golf swing motion. And your body position can do a lot to help you reach this goal.
Similarly, do you hit a hybrid like an iron or wood? The key to hitting a hybrid well is to swing it like an iron, not a fairway wood. If you hit down on the ball with a hybrid and take a little divot (above, right), it can be just as easy to maneuver as a middle iron.

Can you adjust the lie on a hybrid?
Some manufacturers indicate that hybrids may be adjusted a couple of degrees for lie angle, by an expert club maker using the same bending tools used for irons. If the correct length is selected for your woods and hybrids the standard lie angle should be close to what you need.
Why do I hook my driver but not my irons?

Does a hybrid hit farther than an iron?
Irons vs Hybrids Club Stats In general terms, a hybrid will travel 8 to 12 yards further than the corresponding iron, but in reality accuracy and consistency are the keys. Due to the fact that most golfers carry either a hybrid or an iron, it is very difficult to compare them directly.
When should I use 3 wood or 3 hybrid?
It is better to use a 3-wood when the grass is cut or mown and the ground is hard which helps the ball to roll. The 3-hybrid is used majorly for off the fairway or out of the rough (where the ground is damp or soft.) This makes the 3-wood more suitable for pro-golfers and the 3-hybrid for amateurs.

What happens if ball is too far back in stance?
The farther back the ball is in your stance, the more inside-out golfers can can swing to give the ball draw/hook spin. And the farther forward your ball position is, the more outside path you will create, which will give your shots a fade/slice spin.
