  • Pros

    Looks and sounds great, goes straight, forgiving and works well from different lies.

  • Cons

    High flight limits distance into the wind. Lots of offset in standard version.

What we say...

2013 Hybrids Test

All testers experienced a much higher ball flight with plenty of spin and as a result it wasn’t one of the longer hybrids. But dispersion was tight with off-centre hits holding their line surprisingly well. James found the offset on the standard version took a bit of getting used to. He preferred the compact Pro version, which gave him the ability to shape the ball both ways, strike the ball well from rough and increase distance, too.

Matt liked the matt grey finish and the consistent flight. He enjoyed the higher flight and solid feel at impact and got the ball out of the rough with relative ease. He also praised the sound. Antony liked the colour and felt the bigger head and visible grooves made it easy to line up. He said the high flight would mean a struggle into the wind but also liked the sound at impact.

The long, high performing X Hot/X Hot Pro hybrids have an ultra-thin Speed Frame Face for incredibly fast ball speeds, a modern Warbird soleplate with heel-toe camber enhances playability from any lie.

  • 5 out of 5 Surprisingly easy to hit

    By Quijo

    I bought the 16.0 pro version and then doubted whether I would be able to hit with it. How wrong I was. For a club that replaces a 2 iron, this is so easy to hit and what a flight. I regret not buying Callaway clubs earlier....high quality.
