Does your bag resemble one with the amount of woods and hybrids that you carry?

I hit a 3 iron today and a 3 hybrid and there was at least 40 yards of a distance gap....Now before anyone jumps the gun....One was my i15 20 degree hybrid and the 3 iron was a callaway razr x belonging to my dad....
I dont carry a 5 wood purely for the reason that i hit the 3 hybrid a good distance.....

Would you carry them over the equivalent long iron even if the iron was way shorter?
Im contemplating changing my 4 iron for the equivalent hybrid....But i still like my 4 iron so im not fully sure....
The fact that i rarely use the 4 iron for anything other than off the tee seems to make it slightly redundant////And its a bit of a mar-mite club off the fairway....

Carry a driver, 3 & 5 wood and a 3 hybrid so there are a few headcovers in the bag. Look at KJ Choi's bag if you want one full of covers.

Don't think it matters how many headcovers you have but gapping would be an issue, I tend to find hybrids approx club longer so hybrid has replaced 3 iron.

Number of headcovers wouldn't faze me. It's more important to have confidence in every club and have good distance between them. I love my 4 iron off the deck or the tee. Hate my hybrid we just don't get on. When I finally upgrade my woods I'll be hoping for a 3 & 5 wood combo.

Long iron or hybrid - it doesn't matter.
Use whichever you hit best AND fills the gaps between other clubs.
Hybrids are generally longer than the equivalent iron due to the longer graphite shaft and a launch angle more conducive to a long carry. A 20 degree hybrid that is supposed to replace a 3 iron acts more like a 2 1/4 iron distance-wise.
It's more important to get your gaps right than to worry about what loft or number is stamped on the sole.

I count 13 clubs in your bag. If that's right and you hit a hybrid further than the equivalent iron and you also like your 4 iron, why not get a 4 hybrid and leave the 4 iron in?
