Just wondering if many here use a higher lifted hybrid?
I had a shot today from heavy wet rough about 175 from green. Usually for me this is about a 5 iron. As the rough was wet and ball sitting down a little I decided to take my 3 hybrid and swing nice and easy. Great result and ball popped out nicely and finished couple of yards right if green. Don't think I'd have got as good a result with the iron shot.
Later in round I had a couple of shots from similar wet rough from around 150 yards to green. Had to really try dig the ball out with a 7 iron, results were average. I was thinking a hybrid again would have been a great option to just pop ball out. Obviously 3 hybrid would be too much from that distance but was thinking something like a 5/6 hybrid might be a handy club to have in the bag.
Would only be for speciality shots like the situations I pointed out but I've only 13 clubs in bag so have space for one more
Anybody gone down the road of carrying a high loft rescue for the shots I described?
