These new hybrids are longer from toe-to-heel and deeper from front-to-back than the current XR series hybrids, which combines with a deep centre of gravity to make Callaway’s Steelhead XR Hybrids even more forgiving and easier to launch – easy launch = more carry = more distance.

Likewise, the face of each Steelhead XR Hybrid is larger and incorporates next- generation ‘Hyper Speed Face Cup’ technology that allows the edges of the face to flex and release faster at impact, raising ball speed on both centre and off-centre hits to promote more distance, swing after swing.

With Callaway’s ‘Speed Step Technology’, designed with the assistance of aerospace experts, airflow has been improved to promote faster clubhead speed for more distance.

Just as the original Steelhead X-14 Irons were renowned for their extremely playable and versatile sole design, so are Steelhead XR Hybrids.

In terms of total performance, the convergence of the Steelhead XR’s advanced technologies and shaping allow it to deliver exactly what golfers want from a hybrid: massive forgiveness, easy launch, high and long flight, and exceptional versatility and playability.
