I currently have a 14* 3w and 17* 5w which I am looking to replace with a 13-17* hybrid that is longer distance wise than my 5w to free up a club. Most likely a Cobra, Sonartec or Taylormade. I generally do not have a problem hitting a 5w out of the rough, although my shy away from even thinking of doing so with my 3w. Does anyone have a similar experience where they could not hit a 3w out of the rough but can in fact hit a lower lofted hybrid out of the rough.
The idea of freeing up a club and adding a few yards to the distance of my 5w seems nice, especially since I use my 3w very little, but I do not want to do it at the expense of not playing it out of the rough and would prefer just dropping my 3w and keeping the 5w if that is the case. I understand one of the pluses of the hybrid is play out of the rough, but 15* or lower just seems like a tall order.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
