Set up like a mid-iron, with the ball slightly forward of center
Keep your stance shoulder-width and your weight balanced
Grip the club firmly but not tightly
Position your hands slightly ahead of the ball at address
Make a smooth, controlled swing
Sweep the ball off the turf rather than trying to dig into it
Keep your head steady through impact
Maintain a steady tempo from backswing to finish
Let the club release naturally through the ball
Finish with your weight on your front foot
Use a shallow angle of attack
Focus on striking the ball first, then the turf
Avoid trying to lift the ball into the air
Practice from fairway lies and light rough
Adjust ball position slightly forward for longer hybrids
Shorten your swing if you need more control
