Darkspeed

Why we like it

We get that making a hybrid with a trampoline face is desirable, but all that ball speed without the ability to launch the ball isn’t much use. The ideal hybrid needs its internal weight to be low to boost that launch angle. Darkspeed uses an ingenious internal bridge-like weight bar low and close to the face to make it easier to launch shots high. At the same time, this structure allows the thin face to wrap around the leading edge for maximum ball speed.

Darkspeed

  • A thin, high-strength steel face insert wraps under the leading edge to create a flexible region lower on the face where most impacts occur.
  • The One Length version (7-iron length) is also available.
  • 17, 19, 21, 24, 28 degrees (with a fixed hosel)

Reviewer profile

“The perfect matte black, it’s quiet and dangerous looking. The ball won’t know what hit it. More bass than baritone.”
