Callaway Golf Hybrids: X Hybrids

By Sean ⋅ December 22, 2006 ⋅  Print this post ⋅ Post a comment

Again, just randomly looking about the Internet, and came across an ad for the Callaway X Hybrids and thought, wow, that’s a cool looking club. I’m not sure that I would pick one up, as I really seem to have a mental block with woods/hybrids at the moment, but they sure are sweet looking!

Some factoids:

Callaway Golf’s new X Hybrids use a modified version of the X Sole that is designed to prevent rocking of the clubhead as it comes into contact with the ground. The modified design is supposed to offer the versatility that hybrids demand—able to cut through the rough, while still allowing a player to pick the ball off a tight lie on a fairway.

The X Hybrids also use Callaway’s Variable Face Thickness technology, which is supposed to increase ball speed by making the clubface thicker in teh center, and thinner on the perimeter. Perimeter weighting is used to optimize the center of gravity for a high moment of inertia for greater stability and increased trajectory control.
