As a complete hacker my one length hybrids are a game saver. They're so easy to hit and confidence inspiring. My only problem is I don't have the speed to get enough height with the 19°. I use the 25° from the tee and the fairway and just plod my way round the course. It doesn't look exciting but it's much more enjoyable than slicing the driver or 3w off every tee.

You sound exactly like me! Everyone keeps asking me "why don't you hit driver? Why don't you hit driver?" but here I am pumping that OL 5i 210yrds up the fairway over and over while my buddies go on hiking adventures to find their balls lol.

Fascinating video Mike. Although this wasn’t meant to be an instructional video, it would have been interesting to learn about how your setups differed when hitting each club i.e. did you hit the one-length from the middle of your stance and the traditional-length further forward?

Very interesting compare. Hybrids are about gapping, as you said, and although the standard version was 10 yards further, the One Length was hugely more consistent in its front to back dispersion. The mistake manufacturers make, I think, is to number them after irons. Why can’t they just number them by loft so it (admittedly aesthetically) just fits into your bag without clashing with your irons? For example, you could quite easily end up with a 4 iron and a 4 hybrid even though the 4 hybrid would technically be your 3 iron in the bag.

At least with Cobra and the one length hybrids (I didn't look at their other hybrid/wood offerings) the loft is on the club, back of the hozzle. So you kind of get both.

Nice! I'm just getting back into golf after a long layoff due to back injury and recently added a couple of new hybrids (3&4 Callaway BB OS) to the bag and have ordered in a F8 one length 4 Hybrid that I'm hoping will play as a #5 as they do seem to be a bit shorter on carry. I'm excited to give it a hit.

I have one length f8 5Hybrid. Can easily use it from 175-200 yards. Shape it both ways. Biggest thing for me, is the feeling of control I get from it and how easy it is to use. It sits as a natural swap to a full length 5 iron to me, but would hit shorter than a full length 5 hybrid. But it fits the gap nicely and that’s what counts as u pointed out. I will be considering the F9 wen the time comes to replace it.

richard jones I rented time on a launch monitor to figure out what I'm doing wrong. Ended up taking them out of the bag and switched back to the conventional length Callaway long hybrids that seem to suit my grip and swing better. Those longer clubs are harder to hit flush but at least when I hit them well, they go where I want.

I’ve owned both Wishon and currently play the Cobra F8 SL irons. Far from being short, they are often longer and more accurate than variable length irons. Depending on the time of year and strike (of course), my 5i can reach 175m’s. It’s all about centre strike and ball speed, forget about club head speed, it will only mess up your swing mechanics. I’m thinking about trying the 1irons, but am a bit concerned about quality and frankly I like how my Cobras look. I don’t like big offset either.

No adjustment in hosel on the standard, Cobra a little flat for me, probably the same for you, we use the same iron lie angles. The one length is more upright probably good for you. My beef with Cobra is lie angle adjustment.

I certainly do not have the knowledge or capabilities as a pro. However it looked like you hit both clubs from the same position. I was told to play all one lengths from a 7 iron set up. Right or wrong?

Simple answer is yes, find your best position and play the irons from there. For trivia’s sake, the bottom of your swing is under the left arm pit. Play well.
