When & why: hybrids

You won’t find a better example of how difficult and important it is to stay on the fairways than last week’s AIG Women’s Open at Carnoustie, so perhaps that’s got you thinking about course management and playing it safe. Well, hybrids could be the answer...

The conundrum

Sometimes you’ll see a pesky fairway bunker sitting right at your driving distance, or maybe even the dreaded water hazard! It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that being on the fairway gives you a look at pars or even birdies, rather than bogeys or worse if you find yourself in those hazards.

The solution

Making the smart decision shouldn’t have any drawbacks, such as coming up too short of the green, so PING has designed its G Le2 ladies’ hybrids to be super-lightweight; helping you generate plenty of distance without needing a fast swing speed.

If you're in the market for new hybrids, we couldn't recommend these highly enough. Just pop by the pro shop or send us a message if you'd like to give them a try.
