Where it wins
- Feel84
- Distance82
- Sound82
Watch
Rated highest for feel and distance; its softest dimension is workability.
You're a mid HCP (5-22) at 85-115mph who wants a top-6 2023 hybrid for both distance AND forgiveness with a deep-body high-launch profile — comfortable trading some accuracy for the dual-strength combo.
You want elite shot-to-shot accuracy (the lab ranked it 18th there), you want shape-shifting workability, or you want hosel adjustability (the standard spec has a fixed hosel).
Pros
- Independent robot testing 2023: ranks 8th overall — top 6 for both distance and forgiveness
- Reviewer GCQuad testing: 147.8mph average ball speed, 3805rpm spin (Pro V1x) — strong fitting numbers
- Incredibly solid from the grip to the head — premium feel impression for a GI hybrid
- Extensive 5-loft ladder (17°, 19°, 21°, 24°, 28°) + ONE-Length option (3H/4H/5H) — broad fitting options
Cons
- Independent robot testing: 18th for accuracy — dispersion lags the field
- High-launch / deep-body profile not for shape-shifters
- Now 2 years old — superseded by the next-generation line
- Standard 5-loft model has fixed hosel — limited fitting tuning
By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongIndependent robot testing 2023: ranks 8th overall, top 6 for forgiveness — strong combination with distance. Reviewer testing: extremely forgiving across the face, taking pressure off ball striking while also producing fast ball speeds. Manufacturer: PWR-BRIDGE suspended weight design allows unrestricted flexibility of the face and sole. Above-average forgiveness — top 6 in 2023 lab forgiveness with PWR-BRIDGE + H.O.T Face tech.
Distance
ExcellentReviewer GCQuad testing: produced fast ball speeds (147.8mph on average) and consistent spin rates with an average of 3805 rpm (with Pro V1x). Independent robot testing 2023: top 6 for distance. Manufacturer: H.O.T Face design + PWRSHELL insert for face flex / speed. Top-tier distance — top 6 in 2023 distance testing with 147.8mph fitting ball speed.
Workability
SolidIndependent robot testing: accuracy is a glaring weakness, placing 18th for accuracy. Manufacturer: high launch design + deep body biases launch over shape control. Reviewer testing: performed well from a variety of lies but no shape-shifting language. Average workability — high-launch all-around profile not engineered for shape-shifting, lab accuracy lagged the field.
Feel
ExcellentReviewer testing: the head felt solid and stable on every reasonable strike — incredibly solid from the grip to the head, a sensation that carries over once you start hitting golf balls. You could sense when you caught one super thin or way out on the toe, but otherwise every hit felt good. Above-average tour-tier feel — solid and stable across the face with clear gross-miss feedback.
Sound
ExcellentReviewer testing: the metallic impact is a solid staccato crack, medium in volume, with centered contact being brighter than slight misses. Even with the taller face, the head doesn't sound thin, and even on shots that need forgiveness from the toe or heel section of the hitting area, the sound remains strong, providing confidence. Above-average acoustic — solid metallic crack with confident volume on mishits, no thin sound from the taller face.
Looks at address
StrongManufacturer: deep body design paired with a high bounce leading edge. Reviewer testing: taller face. Standard line dark crown with subtle branding. Average address profile — deeper body with taller face inspires confidence but trades the tour-clean look.
