I don\u2019t know about you but I\u2019ve always struggled with 200-220 yards shots because long irons are just hard to hit. That was until I got myself a hybrid, and in this post, we\u2019re going to be talking about some of my favorites for mid handicaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are the best hybrids for mid handicappers 2024:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Taylormade M6<\/strong><\/a> (best overall hybrid)<\/li>
  2. Cobra F9 Speedback<\/strong><\/a> (best budget-friendly hybrid)<\/li>
  3. Callaway Mavrik Max<\/strong><\/a> (most forgiving hybrid)<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    I\u2019m a mid handicap hacker myself and if I were in the market for a new hybrid then these are the ones I\u2019d consider. I ended up buying the M6 not that long ago and absolutely love it. I\u2019ve compared it to some of the newer hybrids on the market and can\u2019t see any reason to spend the extra money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What Is A Mid Handicap Golfer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    A mid-handicap golfer is someone that has a handicap between 11-20 and normally shoots in the 80s on a par 72 golf course. These golfers are considered to be slightly better than average.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    You might find this hard to believe but if you can consistently shoot in the 80s, you\u2019re actually quite a bit better than most. The average golf score for people actually tracking their handicap is right around 91<\/strong> (for all age groups).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    That doesn\u2019t give you the full picture though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What about all those golfers who don\u2019t track their handicap? If you were to include those scores then the average score would jump up closer to 100<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Being able to shoot in the 80s means you play better than bogey golf. You do get a lot of those but you also get your fair share of pars.<\/strong> Even better, you might make one or two birdies per round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you\u2019re a mid handicapper then you\u2019ll want to look for specific features in a fairway wood. You\u2019ll still need the forgiveness<\/strong> that a high handicap would need but you\u2019ll also want some versatility<\/strong> for when you get better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Not quite in the 80s yet? If that\u2019s the case, you might want to read our article on fairway woods for average players. These woods could work fine for you but there could be better options on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
