Golf hybrids for boys

A reassuring club

The hybrid is often the favourite club for young golfers. Shorter than a fairway wood and more forgiving than a long iron, it launches the ball easily, even from the thick grass of the rough. Its wide head and low centre of gravity inspire confidence at address, helping the child to relax in their swing and improve quicker.

The rest of the bAG

Boys' clubs also come in:

• Beginners.
• Drivers.
• Fairway Woods.
• Iron Sets.
• Single Irons.
• Sand Wedges.
• Putters.
• Club Sets.

All clubs are gathered on the boys' clubs page.

According to skill level

For a beginner, one hybrid with a loft of about twenty-four to twenty-eight degrees is enough to cover long shots from the fairway. A young rated player, with a higher swing speed, might carry two to bridge the gap between their wood and irons. The coach helps define the distances for each club and to set up the bAG.

Size and shaft

Like all junior clubs, the hybrid is chosen based on the child's height, using the manufacturer's charts. The shaft made of graphite, lightweight and flexible, helps generate speed. A club that's too long or too heavy forces compensation and degrades technique. Clubs should be renewed as the child grows, usually every two or three years.

Good deals

Good bargains can also be found in good deals, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped in 24h are prepared and sent out within 24 hours. The highlights of the year follow a stable order: Black Friday in late autumn, year-end celebrations, winter sales, French Days in spring, then summer sales and back-to-school.

Frequently asked questions

What loft should I choose for a young golfer's hybrid?

A generous loft, around twenty-four to twenty-eight degrees, easily launches the ball with a modest swing speed. It nicely replaces long irons, which are too demanding for a child.

How to play a hybrid from the rough?

Place the ball slightly forward of centre and sweep the grass with a swing that's wide, without trying to strike downwards. The wide sole slides through the rough and the head lifts the ball effortlessly.

When should I add a hybrid to a boy's bAG?

As soon as he masters his mid-irons and is looking for distance from the fairway. The hybrid fits between the fairway wood and irons, and often becomes his reliable club on long holes.

How to adjust the length of a hybrid to the child's size?

The club is chosen according to the child's height, following the manufacturer's size chart. If it's too long, it forces them to straighten up and shorten their swing: it's better to have a club that’s just the right size than one that will need to be grown into.

Why a graphite shaft for a junior hybrid?

Graphite is lighter and more flexible than steel: the child generates more head speed and gets the ball in the air more easily. It also absorbs vibrations on poorly struck shots.
