As you noted in your hybrid shot - it may not only be the length of the backswing - at the same time you may be swinging easier with the longer club. Either way - both ideas are excellent for accuracy situations. I might add one additional idea for you. You don't need to use the same swing for every shot - in an effort to be consistent. Certain players never make it beyond that initial idea of swinging all the clubs the same. The better players at some point realize that they don't use the same swing for the 100 approach shot as they use for the driver swing. Feel free to swing full on the tee shot with the fairway that you can hit comfortably - then with your 120yd approach shot - use the 3/4 accuracy swing. Now that's a "hybrid" worth hitting.
Yes, I think I always have had a much longer swing than I thought I had. So making it a bit shorter with more control when the situation asks for it is something to work on. Thanks for sound advice. .
