• KEY TECHNOLOGY: The narrow version offers a low center of gravity (CG) and low spin aimed at medium- to high-swing speeds; the wide-sole model has an even lower and deeper CG and is more offset to fit the high-handicapper.
• PANELIST COMMENT: “Perfect trajectory. I like the dark look. I like the narrow depth. … Hot face, but the sole is too wide. Really easy to get up in the air.”
• JUDGES’ VERDICT: Either way, it’s one solid hybrid.

HOT: Helping slower swings with more spin.
NOT: 40.5 inches might be unwieldy for 3-Hybrid.
