I love the hybrids, too. I can shoot at the green now more often than not instead of shooting for down front, then chipping and putting. We play a lot of scramble now and my partner is not a big hitter so he'll play safe and I can just bomb away with abandon. Makes it a lot of fun- sometimes I look like a star, other times not so much. I find the clones which I have here to be as good as the Taylor Rescue hybrid (3H I think) I have at home in Boston.

 

I'm definitely moving toward using the driver only on wide open tee shots. The hybrids do get me out there in good position without the risks inherent in (my) driving.

 

Putters are funny like someone said (Rashean27?) above. I've tried several but keep going back to the old Wilson mallet with the rubber insert face.
