The Speedline hybrid fw seeks to merge the advantages of both hybrids and fairway metals. It is a steel clubhead with a high-performance Graphalloy graphite shaft with a rubber Adams grip. The clubhead takes the Boxer technology and melds it with the typical pear-shaped fairway club. The loft is that of a fairway metal, the shaft length is that of a hybrid. The clubhead has the aerodynamic heel and toe cut-out shapes pioneered by the Speedline driver. The face is rather large. The performance is that it is pretty easy to hit out of grassy lies, but looks a bit bulky out of tight lies. Gets the ball up with good distance. In addition to the draw internal weighting (and maybe a slight hook in the alignment) the grip is slightly smaller in diameter to promote a hook release. It is a good club among many other good clubs in this market niche. If you can obtain it at a great price, then it is a good deal for you. I have switched back to my prior fairway metal (Steelhead III) because I felt it was more beneficial off shoddier lies.
