Callaway Elyte

92/100

Callaway’s Elyte hybrid uses heel‑toe weights (13‑gram tungsten and 3‑gram aluminium) and an OptiFit hosel for up to 13 yards of shot‑shape adjustment and two degrees of loft change【644830061061382†L129-L146】. The Ai 10X face optimises launch and dispersion, while the traditional crown and slight offset look appealing at address. Testers noted high ball speeds around 150 mph and strong carry distances from tee, fairway or rough【644830061061382†L196-L239】.

Titleist GT1

Titleist GT1

90/100

The GT1 hybrid is Titleist’s highest launching model, with front and back weight ports that raise MOI by 5 % over the TSR1 hybrid【25545836118838†L191-L253】. Swappable weights (11 g and 5 g) and an adjustable hosel enable golfers to tune centre of gravity and spin. Reviewers measured ball speeds around 146 mph and descent angles near 45°, making it ideal for slower swing speeds and high handicappers【25545836118838†L236-L253】.

Cobra King Tec

Cobra King Tec

89/100

The King Tec hybrid features a forged PWRSHELL face cup for maximum energy return and a lightweight carbon crown that saves 10 g to lower the centre of gravity【145701220946725†L220-L257】. Two 12‑gram tungsten weights can be positioned in the toe, heel or front to favour draw, fade or neutral flight. A four‑degree adjustable hosel lets you refine loft, while Cobra Connect sensors track your performance on the course.

Mizuno ST‑MAX 230

Mizuno ST‑MAX 230

88/100

Mizuno’s ST‑MAX hybrid has a large footprint and a high‑energy MAS1C steel face partnered with an expanded CORTECH Chamber positioned closer to the face to maintain ball speed on off‑centre strikes【496510106317791†L143-L152】. A low and deep weight combined with an ultra‑light waffle crown delivers a high, straight flight. The quick‑switch hosel offers 4° of loft and lie adjustment, and the Speed Bevel on the sole improves turf interaction【496510106317791†L214-L240】.

TaylorMade Qi35

TaylorMade Qi35

87/100

The Qi35 hybrid employs Twist Face and a Thru‑Slot Speed Pocket to enhance ball speed and launch while reducing mis‑hits. Its multi‑material chassis (aluminium, steel and carbon) is shaped to raise the centre of gravity for a controlled, high‑launch flight【995179668727981†L130-L154】. A three‑degree loft sleeve and TSS weight allow swing‑weight tuning, and golfers enjoyed the compact head with a forgiving draw bias【995179668727981†L165-L229】.
