Is the hybrid becoming redundant with the resurgence of the sevenwood on tour? [Music] Now, it could well be, but some people just don’t like sevenwoods, and that’s absolutely fine. They fly higher. They sometimes fly a little bit leer. So, let’s have a look at what these two bad boys do against each other. Now, I’ve got both of these clubs in a regular shaft, and they’re the stock regular shaft with each club. This is the Ping G440. It’s got 23° of loft and it’s on standard. We can adjust this up and down and flat. And this is the Callaway Elite Hybrid. Similar in loft, we got it at 22° instead of 23. We’ve got two different features on this head. We’ve got two weights, one in the toe, one in the heel. At the minute, I’ve got 13 g in the heel and 3 g in the toe. And then we’ve got a new adapter on the hybrid as well. So, the adapter on the hybrid will let us change the loft and the lie angle in a few different ways that I think is just a little bit more complex or a little bit more beneficial than the ping if you need it. We can go upright and flat, more loft and less loft. So, we can move in four different directions. And then if someone hits hybrids to the left, we can stick that weight in the toe and also change the flight that way. But toe to toe off the rack. This is the Elite Hybrid. And I just want to get a few shots with each to see if one goes higher, one goes lower, one goes left, one goes right. Maybe if one’s a little bit easier off the face, harder off the face. Just to get a feel for what you might get from these off the rack. Oh, that will do nicely. So, I do generally find hybrids much easier to draw. And I’d love to give this a whirl with the weight in the toe and the and the lie angle flatter, but as it is, this is what I’ve got. Oo, little bit of extra turn. I’m using a Callaway triple diamond golf ball for both of these cuz we don’t have any ping balls and that is feeling quite easy to get through the ball. I can’t argue with the forgiveness of that head and that face technology that we get from Callaway, but Ping are notorious for being more helpful, more forgiving for a wide spectrum of golfers. And the first thing I see behind the ball is that this Ping hybrid does sit just a little bit more closed than the Callaway. Some might like that, some might not. That was very, very nice. Whoa. Okay. So, we do have one degree more loft on this. We can go flatter. We can go lower lofted. But as it is on its standard spec, what have we got? I have to say that does feel slightly easier than the Callaway to get it airborne. Maybe the Callaway has just got that little bit more manipulation. For a slightly lower handicapper, I probably prefer this ping in the hands of a higher handicapper that needs a bit more help off the face because that is super easy and it does feel very very sevenwoody in ease. And the reason I’ve got this club in is because someone traded it in. So someone traded it in. So I thought I might as well give it a little blast on here. So, with the Callaway, I’ve got 108 peak heights. With the Ping, I have 120. So, I’ve got more height on that Ping. Angle of descent is 44 and a half with the Callaway, 48.2 with the Ping. So, the Ping’s coming in steeper from a higher peak height. And I’ve got 705 draw spin on the Callaway, and 500 with the Ping. Probably a little bit easier to move that right to left with that bigger weight in the heel that can be moved to the toe. And we got 218 on the Ping and 221 on the Callaway. Don’t forget this is 23° and this is 22°. So I’m not surprised. There is just a subtle difference there. Big difference in height and then spin as well. So the Callaway is definitely spinning lower which could be better off the TE. It’s coming slower off the face actually. I’ve got a bit more pop off the face on the Ping G440 with more height, more spin, more landing angle. And I would link those characteristics to be a bit more like a sevenwood in that Ping hybrid with the Callaway. If you need a slightly lower flight, something that’s better in the wind, maybe that was going to be the trick between the two. We’re getting similar yardages, but just getting that little bit lower flight, lower spin that will cut through the air just that little bit better. And if you hit the ball really low and you want to get a little bit help getting the ball in the air, the G440 is a decent stick for that. But let me know if you’ve tried one of these clubs and jump in the comments after you’ve smashed the like button.
