I bought the PXG hybrids and am struggling with the fact that they appear to be extremely closed at address. I find i either have to open the face (or what appears to be open to me) at address and have this fear of the ball flying right or I hit them and they have this draw that I am not...

As much as possible, I would prefer to have the same swing all throughout the set (save for the driver). I think it's just a matter of letting my eyes and brain accept that what I see as open is actually a square club face already.

don't know why, but it's not limited to pxg's. I tried Ping and TM and they all go left. I think it has something to do with the way I'm seeing the club face. It's already square but to me it looks open - so i end up "squaring" them further to the point that it actually becomes closed.

Yes! This seems to be where the confusion is setting in. My eyes see the club as square when it is actually closed. Because when you just lay the club on the ground (w/o gripping) - the face is actually square, but it looks like it's open. I don't know why this is so - but that's how it seems to...

You're right. I tried the ff and the ball was flying better: 1) I forced myself to set the club square (I don't know why, but for some reason, the square setting of the club looks as if it is open). 2) Put a fade biased setting on the club. 3) Swung it like an iron. 4) Effort on making sure my...

actually, because of the closed club face, in order for me to square up the face, I have to set my hands way in front of the ball (shaft leaning forward). It is very similar to how you would hit a punch shot.

good point there. I'll give it another go. adjust the weights a bit more and see if there are improvements.

Wish I knew about this before I bought the pxgs. haha

too late. Already bought the pxg hybrids. Will just have to work thru it.

Ok. Thanks for the inputs. Will give it a try.

PXG hybrids. Ive already moved one weight in front for a fade setting, but the setting up to the ball is a bit confusing.

Recently started using hybrid clubs to replace longer irons. They fly great but the downside is there is a tendency (for me at least) to draw the ball too much. Is this normal for hybrids? Even the club feels closed at address. I now play the ball in the middle of my stance and my hands feel...

Will try out these suggestions. Thanks for all the inputs.

44 - though this only started when i started playing about a month ago.

Ever since I started playing again (haven't played in 12y and now have come back with a vengeance - range daily for an hour and at least a round a week) my fingers have started hurting - it happens every morning, I wake up with really sore and stiff fingers. It does improve during the day - but...
