Is there a hybrid with a lower loft angle than 15 degrees?

Question

I love the hybrid golf clubs. I bought my first one a few years ago. An 18 degree Nike CPR2. After that I bought the 21 degree and 24 degree. I love all three and hit well with each one. The problem is I stink with a driver. I don't really have the time or desire to practice with a driver, so I'm sticking with the hybrids off the tee. I know Nike makes a 15 degree hybrid, but does anyone make one with a lower loft angle to mimic a driver. A hybrid driver? Does it exist or are there any plans for one?

Answer 2

Don't know the model, but I have a 13 degree Taylor Made rescue club that is money for me. I believe it was the first rescue they came out with as I've had it for three seasons. It is super-easy to hit in the air from any lie and I can work it any way I need to. Much like a long iron...probably easier to hit, that's why you like them. Check it out. I like it more than any 3-wood I've ever had and it goes just as far, especially from the fairway on those tempting Par 5s.

Another thing you can try...Take your extra driver or buy a nice used one. Cut it down to the length of your three-wood or your longest hybrid. This messes with the technology and mechanics of the driver a bit, but I bet if you take it to the range, you can master it. I tried it so I could hit it from the fairway when I needed more distance than my 13 degree hybrid could give me, but couldn't get it. Love that 13 degree.

Answer 3

I do not know for sure but i would not think so because 15 degrees is a 3 wood. The driver can have a loft of like a 8 to 13 degree so i don't think they would make a club under 15 degrees if it was not a driver. But if you hit your hybrids good of the tee stick to them and hit them straight.

Answer 4

I know Ping G10 comes in a lower loft.
