Hybrids and rescues are essential clubs for many golfers to bridge long distances precisely and replace long irons. The Black Week offers focus on models with the latest A.I. technologies and special weightings that promise maximum forgiveness and higher ball speeds.
The discounted rackets, which are currently available, combine technological excellence. The common denominators are artificial intelligence (A.I.) to optimize the key surface structure and the strategic use of high-density tungsten/tungsten to precisely position the center of gravity.
Rescues and hybrids in a black week deal
Many of the current offerings are aimed at helping golfers with moderate to slower swing speeds start the ball high and minimize slice tendencies.
- Callaway Big Bertha series (including REVA): These rackets are designed with a large, confidence-inspiring head shape. Through an improved offset design and the internal positioning of precision tungsten, the slice is effectively limited and a straight, high ball flight is promoted. Die REVA models are specifically tailored to the swing characteristics of female golfers.
- TaylorMade Qi10 series: The series, consisting of the versatile Qi10 and Qi10 Max, uses a large carbon crown to allocate mass, which lowers the center of gravity and increases forgiveness. The Max version is specifically designed for maximum launch and fault tolerance due to extreme circumference weighting. The proven Twist Face technology also corrects toe or heel lapses.
- Cobra Air-X Hybrid: This model uses a super-lightweight construction that enables higher racquet head speeds with the same effort. Heel weighting and an offset hosel specifically counteract a slice and promote rectilinear trajectories.
- PXG 0311 XF GEN5 hybrid: Thanks to a large, square hitting surface and a geometric sole with rails, this model promises remarkable flexibility and excellent dispersion, making it a mid-spin option with high confidence.
Speed and versatility — The power options
For players who play on maximum ball speed and value fairway or rough versatility, some models offer special power transmission technologies:
- Callaway Paradym X Hybrid: This model features the revolutionary Tungsten Speed Cartridge and jailbreak with batwing technology to reduce spin and increase ball speed. The new cutwave sole also optimizes interaction with the lawn, particularly in rough conditions.
- Cobra Darkspeed Hybrid: It uses the PWRSHELL design and swinging PWR-BRIDGE technology to maximize flexibility in the hitting surface and sole for high ball speed and a strong launch.
- Srixon ZX MK II Hybrid: This hybrid uses the Rebound frame technology, which bundles more energy with its Dual Flex Zones and transfers it efficiently to the ball, resulting in increased shooting distance. The Cannon Sole also helps to optimize the start of the ball.
Special models for speed and target group
Two series stand out due to their unique choice of materials or specific target group orientation:
- Callaway Great Big Bertha hybrid: An ultralight construction made of titanium hitting surface and body is used here. This lightweight titanium construction saves up to 100 g of weight, which is redistributed by tungsten to optimize speed and forgiveness.
- TaylorMade SIM2 MAX Rescue (including women's model): Building on tour-proven performance, this Rescue with its V Steel design offers a neutral orientation and a high ball start with medium spin. The Twist Face made of forged C300 steel guarantees explosive ball speeds and corrects misses.
