Callaway Heavenwood Hybrid hits VERY low?

Question

Hey, I'm 14 and I have a 3h Heavenwood. When I hit this club, it hits very straight but either goes very low or curves downards or upwards. I can hit a 3 iron just fine. Im wondering if maybe the shaft flex has something to do with it. My 3 iron is also a callaway, big bertha '06 to be specific. The heavenwood has a 'regular' flex, while my iron has a 'light/senior' flex. I am wondering if replacing the hybrids shaft with a lighter flex would help my problem out.

Answer 1

I play Heavenwoods, and they DO have a slightly lower trajectory. Some consider it a fault; some a "feature." I like it and account for it in my swing.

Their later hybrid models actually address this, and feature higher trajectories.

Answer 2

It sounds more like a swing mechanics problem than a shaft flex problem.  See a teaching pro and get the swing corrected.

Answer 3

If you are not sure what is causing the problem, don't guess and don't change shafts especially when you are 14. Get the opinion of a golf professional as to the cause and possible solution.

Answer 4

the shaft is to long for a fourteen year old. grip down one inch , move ball back in stance . hit down and through . hybirds are played as a iron , not a wood . you will be fine . with more spending money
