This is my first adjustable hybrid.
Got the 19 degree and plan to play it as 18 degree.
Spec:
19 degree
Length: standard 40.5 inch
Shaft: Speeder 95 HB in X-stiff
The 95 gram shaft is not that heavy when you take into account my next club - 4 hybrid - has a 130g C-taper steel shaft.
Did a session on a SkyTrak launch monitor.
I've compared it to my existing 19 degree hybrid:
JPX EZ
19 degree
Length: standard (40.25 inch at the time)
Shaft: KBS Hybrid steel, 110g X-stiff
I used a Callaway Hex Chrome ball.
Until this week, I have not hit a ball since last August, so I'm out of practise a bit.
I discarded all my rubbish shots to not skew the results too much.
Results - these are the averages:
CLK:
Launch: 15.4 degree
Back spin: 3277 rpm
Side spin: -744 rpm (draw)
Carry: 209.6 yards
Total: 223.4 yards
EZ:
Launch: 15.5 degree
Back spin: 4024 rpm
Side spin: -666 rpm (draw)
Carry: 197.8 yards
Total: 210.0 yards
Spin is much lower than the EZ - very similar to when I tested it at 19 degree.
I find the ball goes further on a real course than SkyTrak .
I reckon it will go 230 yards on the course which is pretty much what I wanted.
Very pleased with it so far.
