Book Summary –

Originally published in 1981, The Hybrid Club: An Action System by Ron Vickery outlines a distinctive strong‑club structure that merges elements from Kamikaze No‑Trump, Precision Club, and other action‑oriented openings into one hybrid framework. Designed to introduce variability and aggression, the system aims to boost matchpoint scoring opportunities by employing unconventional artificial openings—such as a 1♦ catch‑all bid—and emphasizing disruptive bidding sequences to unsettle opponents. Illustrative hands demonstrate how the system operates in competitive auctions and emphasizes dynamism over predictability .

About the Author –

In 1980, he co‑authored the Hybrid Club system handbook with Max Hardy, positioning it as a creative alternative within the strong‑club family Though unheralded in the mainstream bridge literature, Vickery is remembered on platforms like Bridge Winners as an innovative player who sought to integrate multiple strong‑club ideas into a lively, matchpoint‑focused action system
