Set up high and make a putting stroke with the hybrid

Grip near the top of the handle, almost onto the graphite, with the ball centered or just forward of center. Make a putting-style, low-to-low stroke without excessive wrist action so the hybrid's large sole brushes the grass and moves the ball through.
