Best for

You're a mid HCP (0-20) at 80-110mph who wants the fastest-ball-speed hybrid in the 2021 class — a Ti-face / Ti-body / carbon-crown super-hybrid that plays like a mini-driver off the tee and replaces a fairway wood off the deck.

Avoid if

You want a traditional compact hybrid footprint (this is semi-mini-driver sized), you prefer muted hybrid acoustics (Ti has extra 'ting'), or you want current-generation tech (the Apex Ti Super Hybrid 2026 is the direct successor).

Pros

  • Reviewer testing: 91mph swing → 200.9yd carry (4H) — about 10yd further than a traditional 4 hybrid
  • Fastest ball speed hybrid per independent testing — titanium face + body + Jailbreak Velocity Blades + up to 90g perimeter tungsten
  • Triaxial carbon crown saves weight that is relocated for forgiveness — Ti construction normally trades forgiveness for speed, but the crown rebalances it
  • Reviewer testing: very solid, stable, mini-driver-like feel off the tee — premium impact sensation from the Ti-face + carbon-crown build

Cons

  • Titanium tends to have a little extra ting — polarising acoustic vs typical muted hybrid tones
  • Now 4 years old (2021 release) — superseded by the Apex Ti Super Hybrid (2026) within the brand's own lineup
  • Larger semi-mini-driver profile not for golfers who want a traditional compact hybrid look
  • Premium-tier pricing typical of super-hybrid / Ti-face category

By dimension

84

Forgiveness

Reviewer testing: head is loaded with tungsten weighting — up to 90 grams split in the perimeter of the club head to increase stability and forgiveness. Manufacturer: Triaxial carbon crown saves weight that is relocated for added forgiveness. Jailbreak A.I. Velocity Blades increase stiffness near the sole for more speed low on the face where golfers most commonly mis-hit their hybrids. Above-average forgiveness — 90g perimeter tungsten + Jailbreak Velocity Blades = strong off-center retention engineered into the super-hybrid platform.

88

Distance

Reviewer testing: 4 hybrid with 91 mph swing speed produced an average carry distance of 200.9 yards, about 10 yards further than a traditional 4 hybrid. Independent robot testing: fastest ball speed hybrid — extreme amount of tungsten weighting provides a hot penetrating ball flight. Member testing: 189 carry, 91 feet height, 4600 spin and average ball speed of 127. Reviewer averaging 252 yards with a 3 hybrid. Top-tier distance — measurably the fastest-ball-speed hybrid in the 2021 class, titanium-face engineered.

76

Workability

Reviewer testing: compared to the previous Super Hybrid, this is more versatile — it launches high and easily like the predecessor but with more spin, and while the spin is still low overall for distance, it's easier to hold greens and shape shots. Larger semi-mini-driver profile biases launch over shape control. 8-position hosel allows loft/face bias tuning. Average workability — improved shape-shifting over the predecessor but still launch-biased super-hybrid profile.

84

Feel

Reviewer testing: feel of impact matches the sound — light and quick off the face. The head feels very solid, stable, and just like a mini driver off of the tee. Reviewer testing: solid feel at impact and the pleasing sound which increases confidence while addressing the ball. Above-average tour-tier feel — solid, stable, mini-driver-like impact made possible by the Ti-face + carbon-crown construction.

78

Sound

Reviewer testing: when struck well, the head sounds like a fairway wood with a high-pitched tink — titanium tends to have a little extra ting to it, the combination of the rigid head and triaxial carbon crown balances it out for a nice clean whack. A clean sweep through the ball has a mini driver tone. Average tour-tier acoustic — polarising titanium tink tone, mitigated by carbon-crown construction.

82

Looks at address

Reviewer testing: just like a mini driver off of the tee at address. Triaxial carbon crown with premium finish. Larger profile than typical hybrid — semi-fairway-wood appearance. Above-average address profile — confidence-inspiring semi-mini-driver footprint with premium carbon-crown finish.
