PGA Master Professional Dan Grieve demonstrates how to use a hybrid club effectively around the green for consistent short game results. He breaks down key setup adjustments—including gripping down and raising the handle—to execute a reliable bump-and-run using a simple putting motion.
Grip down toward the bottom of the handle to compensate for the longer hybrid shaft.
Stand closer to the ball and raise the handle so the clubhead sits slightly on its toe.
Use a simple putter-like stroke with minimal wrist hinge for maximum control.
Utilize the wide sole of the hybrid to glide smoothly over fringe and rough lies.
