This is absolutely best choice, especially if you don.t have confidence in your driver ( as i haven't ).
It all boils down to knowing your distances for every single club in your bag. There is o long par five on boysnope ( 514 yard ) and i see so many people tee up with their driver and then either send the ball out of bounds or into the bunkers at around 220 yards.Or they hit a wonderful tee shot but then are confused as to which club to use next and nine times out of ten they choose totally the wrong club which messes up the rest of the hole for them.
I play the hole exactly the same way , every single time.
TEE SHOT: 18 degree hybrid , 200 yards and short of the bunkers.
2nd SHOT: 25 degree hybrid , 180 yards.
3rd SHOT: 8 iron onto the green, which leaves me 1 putt for birdie, or 2 putts for a par.
so it really is true, you don't have to hit big booming drives to master par 5's or any par 4's. Just get that first shot onto the fairway and know your yardages.
