I previously went with conventional wisdom and had two hybrids (2 and 3). I find, however, that I just hit long irons better. In fact, my favorite club off the tee is a 3-iron.
Hybrids - not my swing mind you - depleted my golf budget. When you hook hybrids 50 yds deep in the woods, you generally don't find your ball. (I did find some really cool Top Flites, Nitros, a hobo's urine stash, and a half-drunk forty of Mickey's Ice. While searching for my ball, I drank the other half. Just so you know, Mickey's Ice is NOT always nice...)
If you are 190 out you would use a 5 iron to go for the green but using the 5 hyb means your not going for the green?
I don't carry a 5 iron so I'm not sure I follow your reference on that. If I'm 190 yds out then I'll pull my 5H and go for the green all day long. However, I rarely face that kind of an approach shot.
If they are (for you) easier to hit then why wouldn't it serve that purpose even more?
The 5H usually comes out of the bag for longer par 3's or shorter par 5's. Again, assuming that the distance is in the 180-190 yd range. However, my typical approach shots are between 130-160 yds on an average par 4, in which case I'd pull something higher lofted than the 5 hybrid anyhow.
However, if it ain't broke, don't fix it, right? My experience has been that I can hit hybrids much better than long irons, especially out of rough, fairway bunkers, etc.
