Hey all,

I recently got a 17* Ben Hogan 1h hybrid with the Hogan #4 stiff graphite shaft. I hit it straight, about 220-240 on the course.

I am considering a 14* 0h Hogan hybrid. Should I bother? If so, what shaft?

I should say that I have struggled with keepin the driver btwn the pylons. Ditto 3W. I hit a 4w well, but only 220 or so.

Surfer,

I play 3 hybrids, a cleveland hibore 3h (21*) and two taylormade tp rescue hybrids a 3h (19*) and a 2h (14*). I actually hit the 14* better than my 3w, so I took the 3w out of the bag. The low loft is great, and it just bores through wind. I hit it off the tee on a couple holes at my course that have narrower fairways and I get it out there around 225-240 from the tee (220 is the longest I've hit it from the fairway). It took a few buckets on the range before I was really comfortable hitting it off the deck though. However, I never hit my 3w well off the deck, and I had it for a couple of years.
