The DS-ADAPT hybrids combine versatility, speed, and forgiveness for golfers seeking long-game improvement. The ADAPTIVE WEIGHTING System optimizes CG placement for explosive speed and ideal launch, and H.O.T. Face Technology ensures consistent ball speeds, even on mishits, and the larger footprint enhances forgiveness and confidence at address. Available in 2H–6H and women-specific models, these hybrids offer solutions for long-iron replacements and gap-filling needs. Perfect for tough lies or long par-5s, the DS-ADAPT Hybrids deliver power, consistency, and adaptability, making them essential for bridging fairways and irons with ease.

The DS-ADAPT range is sure to become some of the best fairway woods of 2025.

Looks, Sound and Feedback: 4.5/5

I really liked the appearance of the DS-ADAPT Hybrids. The larger footprint (in comparison to the previous model) gave it a reassuring look at address, helping me feel confident before every shot. The club delivers a solid, satisfying sound at impact, and I could feel the difference between center and off-center strikes. Even on mishits, the feedback was responsive, making me feel connected to every shot.

Distance and Spin: 4.5/5

The hybrids offered impressive distance, thanks to their optimized launch conditions. I appreciated how they provided a consistent ball flight with minimal spin. The loft options really helped me fine-tune my game, giving me more control over my trajectory and ensuring reliable carry distances.

Forgiveness and Control: 4/5

These hybrids were incredibly forgiving, especially when hitting from tough lies and on off-center strikes. The larger head inspired confidence, even with the ball sat down in the rough, and I could still achieve consistent distance and direction even on less-than-perfect shots. I was able to control my ball flight while enjoying the stability the hybrids offered. For golfers with a faster swing speed, I feel these would be less versatile for shot-shaping.

Technology and Components: 5/5

The DS-ADAPT Hybrids are packed with advanced features. The FUTUREFIT33 Technology gave me the ability to adjust loft and lie to suit my swing. I loved the low, forward CG placement, which helped with speed and launch control. The H.O.T. Face Technology ensured high ball speeds across the face, even on off-center hits, while the larger footprint offered added forgiveness. With these features, the hybrids were a game-changer in terms of versatility and consistency.
