Hybrid Select 5000 Irons/Hybrids

- Although these are technically irons, with iron shafts and iron lengths, they are designed to be as easy to hit as fairway woods. The hollow construction places the center of mass down and towards the rear, as is the case of woods. This allows a more sweeping action as the player swings and lessens the need to dig into the ground to get the ball airborne. Many powerful players use the long clubs - the 1, 2, and 3 - as their preferred clubs.

- Some players find they have more accuracy with hybrids than with fairway woods simply because they are made in shorter iron lengths than fairway woods. Often they prefer the less torque of the hybrid shaft which comes in the standard iron tip thickness of .370 inches. A fairway wood with a lesser tip thickness of .340 inches will tend to be less accurate for such players.

- However, the slower swingers (who are more numerous) find a benefit from just about all of the clubs. The shallow faces are slightly less than the diameter of the ball, which further aids lift. For those who have trouble taking a proper divot with any of their irons, it has become common for them to turn to the hybrids to replace their 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 irons.

- The steel shafts for the Select 5000's come in flexes of "stiff", "firm" or "regular".
- The graphite shafts come in flexes of "stiff", "regular", "seniors" and "ladies".

- When ordering the lengths can be adjusted up or down, as needed by the individual.

       These are offered as individual clubs so that the player can pick just the clubs that are needed.
