Shankopotamus Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Ok, say you've bombed your drive down the right side of an unjustifiably long dog leg left, but your ball takes a wicked kick to the right off an undulation on the fairway. Unluckily, you find your ball buried about an inch under some pretty thick rough. There's 180y to the front of the green. Assuming you have a club that you can hit out of deep rough at that length, are you hitting an iron, hybrid, or dare I say it, a fairway wood... or do you lay up?! And if you're confident hitting a hybrid out of deep rough at long yardage, what is it? Basically, I just want to know what the best 2/3 hybrid is out of the rough, IF there is a good low lofted hybrid out of the rough at all. By the way, I was looking at the Fourteen 2010 UT-409 utility's sole and thought it might be a contender for those longer shots from the thick stuff.

wmclarenf1 Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 HI, I can tell you the EGG 1+ hybrid is great out of the rough and 180Y for the EGG is not an issue. Gotta hit it though but the EGG1+ is pretty much the best for distance and forgiveness for a hybrid for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaleUK Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 I use me EGG 9 wood type thing, it is just unreal.... Any lie , this thing just gives results....B4 I had this club I'd either have a bash with 4 iron( non starter really) or lay up! D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chanaa Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 if i can only see less than half of the ball, steep swing 7i to get it out as its almost impossible to do that with hybrids, no matter what loft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idrive Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 I use me EGG 9 wood type thing, it is just unreal.... Any lie , this thing just gives results.... D At 180yds this is what I use. Haven't really found a lie I can't hit it from with this club. I think the confidence to do so makes a difference as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
