Just picked up a 4 iron. For whatever reason I can’t hit a hybrid. I hit my 5 iron fairly well so I’m hoping just getting a 4 iron will give me a little more distance on tight tee shots.

Any practice tips?

Tee it up when you practice.

3/4 swing.
Choke down.

Swing with feet together.

I can't even begin to imagine what you think this is accomplishing based on the OP

Can’t figure out attack angle. Hit like a 5 wood? It’s just weird.
I can flush my five iron around 185. I can sorta half arse hit hybrid a little further but it hooks or I may top it.

I had the same problem.
I'm waaaaay more comfortable with my irons.
I got a new set of Rogues that came with 3 & 4 Hybrid, so I forced myself to start practicing with them a lot more.
I'm not where I want to be but I'm way more confident with my hyrids now.
I'm going to say the cliche thing here to "practice more" but make sure you're practicing correctly.
Good luck!

I played a 4 hybrid for years. All of a sudden, I can’t hit the damn thing. I went with a 4UDI. I LOVE IT!!!!

It’s my favorite club right now. What a weird game we play?

I'm right there with you. I've never been able to consistently hit a hybrid. I got rid of the 4 hybrid and went with a 7 wood. Highly recommend.

How are you with fairway woods? For me, I can hit them off a tee or the deck much better than a hybrid or long iron.

I dropped my 4 iron for a 24* 9 wood and won't look back

What He hits his 5 iron well and this is your tip to do the same with a 4 iron?
