This excellent video raises another question: considering the distance you get with your 20 degree G20, what about the 17 degree G20? That's closer to the DI in loft... that would have launched lower too. And distance wise - with your distances - I would LOVE to know the distance gap between the G20 17 degree and your Ping G25 3 wood - there can't be much in it? But the G25 3 wood is MUCH harder to hit... i.e. what kind of distance are you giving up if you replace the 3 wood with the 17 degree G20 hybrid? Cheers as always.
this one has to be one of the best videos you have ever made, super interesting info, great way to explain the similarities of both clubs, their potential and flexibility towards being able to handle n twist them off in the course
Really great detailed vid & sound advice (as always) for anybody thinking of utilising hybrids &/or the more iron type designed 2i, 3i equivalent. As you say it's about the type of flight & carry relative to the distance. Really you (as of course you have) have to know your average distances so you can fill the 'gaps' in your bag properly & the type of flight/rollout you want. Weather conditions come in to it too as does what kind of course/s you normally play. I have my old trusty MP33 2i which is great and swop it in the bag with a Titleist 913HD subject to where I'm playing & sometimes the weather conditions.
Just hit the DI on the range and it's a must have! On Links, it's a go. The flight is amazing and low, with so much control that a hybrid can't match. The DI is much more accurate yardages off the teebox. I did not mishit even one time! When I try to shape with a hybrid, it's so random where it lands. Advice: Hit on the range, not in doors with launch monitor!!! You won't feel the trajectory indoors. BTW, the stock shaft was a little light IMO. I would love this DI in an X100...although the stock X worked surprisingly good. The DI was so forgiving that I hit every shot solid...this is so much better than driving irons years ago.
Excellent video Mark. I'm asking myself exactly these questions right now. Have just taken the G25 hybrid out of my bag and put the i20 3 iron in. I tend to hook the hybrid, but the iron is always straight! Now quite tempted by the Di.........
Really good informative stats-ie video about club selection options. Nicely edited and relaxed pace as well. Loving the angry punters complaining about the minutiae of the best free golfing resource on youtube. As if they are tethered up and forced to watch them...
It would great to see a comparison like this of your new gamers versus your old if you still have them. I would love to see if there were any increases in ball speed, or whether loft alone accounted for the distance.
I found when I first used the hybrid I would hit it out of the centre of my stance, I then heard I am supposed to hit it similar to a 4-3 iron position in the stance, slightly forward, got huge height and carry off the forward position but almost identicle distance with roll out compared to the middle position, possibly due to a slight downhill target lie, may have to experiment with this into wind a little more. So many great hybids to choose from now
When doing gap-measurements how much gap should I have between each club? 10m, 5m or ? Or should an ideal gap be seen as some distance that is easy to push a little or hold back on a little? Love the videos, they really help!!! :)
5m is too close, I have 10m between my clubs. I've got distance irons, PW goes 125m, 9i = 140m, 8i = 150m, 7i = 160m and so on. Plus 3 wedges to fill in gaps at the short end of the bag. If you only had 5m between clubs you wouldn't be able to hit very far, or you'd have no short game control :-)

excellent explanation and video Mark

Excellent presentation using all those different technical tools to give a thorough explanation. Very comprehensive.
Happy 1,000 videos Mark! Congrats and keep up the good work!
I love the detailed comparison, keep them coming
Great explanation Mark, your videos are always great, keep them up!

Great video. It just answered many questions for me to choose what club to play for a long iron shot.

Very interesting Mark thumbs up

Congrats mark on your 1000th video :) when's your next game with gorilla???
That was a great video Mark. Very informative
unreal video mark well put together
verry interesting points enjoyed.
Really great informative video, cheers mark
Free vs. Three? Think about it!

Excellent video Mark
Hi mark. Thanks for your videos. Just wondering what is the differnce between your two apps?
Hi Mark.
First of all, big fan :-)
Question:
Which balls are you using ? is it just range ones ?
Niels Hunniche
Would love to see your numbers for Titleist 712U Iron and Ping Rapture side-by-side.
More spin in your 4 iron than hybrid, i would have thought that it would have been the other way around. What shaft do you have in your g20?
Great analysis
Hi Mark, could you do a Ping g20 vs nike covert 3h tour numbers comparisson?
Mark Crossfield how would i get a higher launch out of my 3 nike vrs hybrid
Really don't like the new white background!! Still very interesting and worth the watch though
sorry to hear that I will get out more just winter weather at the moment is beating me in the UK
On the plus side though, those course blogs with coach lockey (unfollow) and Rory (your golf travel) had me peeing in my pants...
Mark, could you do a review comparing every golf club ever made? LMAO!!
I have a g20 hybrid 27 degree just wondering what club that would replace
Probably your 5-iron. Depends on the lofts in your iron.
what's the loft on your 4 iron?
Hay great video. Now that you know that you are not going to use the rapture could i have it I believe it would benefit me greatly.
Why do you have these white stickers on your clubfaces?
for my launch monitor GC2 HMT
Mark Crossfield Ok thank you. I was always wondering about that
ctfxcplane I was wondering that also. Great video btw.
