I am a beginner golfer. I want to know if these hybrid clubs e.g. 3H, 4H replace the fairway woods in my bag?

Question

If they do not replace the fairway woods, which fairway woods should I keep? The 3wood and 5 wood, or possibly the 7 wood? Thanks!

Answer 1

Hybrids replace irons, not woods.  A 5w though is fairly similar to a 2 hybrid in distance.  Experiment with them. You'll find the answers.  Everyone is slightly different.

Answer 2

If begining, I would suggest keeping the woods 3-7, the hybrids take the place of long irons like the 2,3,4 irons

Answer 3

Hybrid clubs are much easier to control and have replaced any woods I carry.  My 15 degree hybrid puts me about 250 yards down the fairway.  If i need any more than that, I'll just lay up.
