    Why We Like It

    • This model seeks to maximize distance for average golfers through adjustability and lie angle while offering the same control of the equivalent iron.
    • The mid-size profile makes for an easier transition between hybrids and irons.
    • The adjustable hosel has seven settings that provide 1-degree loft adjustments (weak or strong) and up to 2 degrees of adjustment for lie (weak or strong).
    • After researching thousands of average-golfer swings, Callaway concluded that the proper lie angle for an individual player was crucial to better contact with hybrids, hence the reason for the new adjustable hosel’s emphasis on lie angle.
    • These heads have more of a neutral flight to work across a broader range of players and trajectory preferences.
    • The lofts and neutral ball flight make these hybrids a good fit with Callaway’s Elyte and Elyte HL iron models.
    • The design of the variable-thickness face used input from AI’s analysis of thousands of swings. The result is more precision and effectiveness for the target player.
    • Top 5 in Performance, high-handicaps
    • 19, 22, 26, 30 degrees (with seven-way adjustable hosel)
