The utility club, or rescue, or Hybrid is there to replace your long irons. That's why you see them marked as 3h - 4h or 5h that is to designate the iron it's replacing.
The hybrid is the same length as your iron or just slightly longer. but it should be the same degree of loft.
Hit it as you would your long irons, they are more forgiving, easier to hit, and better out of rough.
Fairway woods have bigger heads and generally quite low lofts from 13 to about 23 or so. They also have longer shafts.

What are the names of the original three clubs in golf?
AnswerI think the terms you are looking for are "brassie", "spoon", and "niblick" (and possibly "driver") . The woods and the brassie were named for their materials, while the spoon was named for its shape. I have no idea where the term niblick comes from. If you find a set of clubs made before WWII, you won't find 1, 3 or 5 woods, etc. Instead, the clubs carried actual names. At that time, the brassie was a long fairway wood; I believe it evolved into the 3 wood. I think the niblick was a medium fairway wood; evolving into the 5 wood. The spoon was a shorter fairway wood; I believe it evolved into the 7 wood. The 3 & 4 hybrids look very similar to a spoon, and essentially recreate it. My understanding is that, before there were true irons, the spoon was used in the same way the short irons are today, the niblick was used in the same way the long irons and the short fairway woods are today and the brassie was used like we use the long woods (driver & 3 wood). I believe that the irons themselves grew out of the spoon, as it differentiated into different shapes optimized for different playing situations and as new materials were introduced.It's fascinating that "woods" are no longer made of wood, and that the long iron hybrids aren't irons, but spoons.However, if you are looking for the names of the types of clubs, a prevous poster stated, "IF I HAD TO TAKE A GUESS, DRIVER, IRON AND PUTTER. IT IS THE THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF CLUBS IN YOUR BAG. ALL CLUBS ORIGINATE FROM THE PUTTER FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN TOLD."I don't know about that last statement - its not something I had heard before.

What is the difference between 5 woods and utility club?
It depends what utility club it is. If it is an 18 degree one, then not very much. You will find that most 5 woods are between 18 and 20 degrees of loft, with hybrids usually coming in lofts 18 to as much as 24 degrees. The heads of hybrids are a lot shorter than 5 woods, and they have quite a compact shape, where as the 5 wood has a large circular head. Hybrids/ utilities are a blend of irons and woods, that is how they achieve their shape. You will find that a hybrid/ utility is a lot easier to hit than a fairway wood because the shaft is slightly shorter, this gives you a better angle of attack and therefore more control.

They are just the same thing. When they first came out they were known as utility clubs, they just had bigger heads on a standard iron shaft. But the soon evolved into an iron/wood mix, with a head which had the loft of and iron and the design of a wood on a longer shaft. There are also utility wedges, Ping makes these, they have nothing to do with hybrid clubs, it is essentially a gap wedge.

What is the Difference between hybrid rescue and woods?
A hybrid club blends the loft of an iron with the concept of a fairway wood. A hybrid will usually have quite a high loft, and can replace a 2 iron, a 3 iron, and 4 iron and even a 5 iron. They are designed with a low centre of gravity which is meant to get the ball airborne easily and also provide great forgiveness. Fairway woods have lower lofts than hybrids usually starting at about 15 degrees or so. Another main difference is that hybrids have shorter shafts which give a better attack angle, where fairway woods have longer shafts which help give extra distance.
