Callaway Women's Elyte Max Fast Hybrid

Five lofts, 23 to 39 degrees, make the women's Elyte Max Fast the deepest hybrid set in the Elyte range, and the point of it is replacing irons wholesale. The men's Max Fast hybrid stops at 27 degrees. This one keeps going through 31, 35 and 39, so a golfer can run hybrids down to where a 9-iron would normally sit. Every head is a casting on an adjustable hosel, and its heel and toe weights swap, a 9 gram tungsten piece and a 3 gram aluminium one, to shift the flight between neutral and draw.

Mitsubishi's Eldio White/Green 40 in ladies flex does the shaft work. Lefties get the 4, 5 and 6-hybrid, and the 35 and 39 degree heads come right-handed only. It's a lot of adjustability for a club aimed at moderate swing speeds, and it's welcome, because the golfer building a bag of hybrids needs the gaps to be tunable.
