The Callaway Apex Hybrid is an iron-style hybrid that acts more like a driving iron. It can rescue you from short grass rough and is excellent when driving from the tee. It complements the Apex CF 16 irons and even the Apex UT Utility iron and the long sleek head certainly gives that iron feel at address. The slim sleek body and low profile help lower the centre of gravity and get the ball airborne.
The Internal Standing Wave comes from Callaway's successful range of fairways and is a ridge of metal like a breaking wave facing forwards and positioned precisely to get the best performance.
The face also draws on fairway design with a Forged Face Cup design where the Carpenter 455 Steel face insert wraps around the front of the body of the club. This creates a larger sweet spot that is also faster on off-centre strikes than faces that are welded straight on to the front of the head.
The profile of the club features the high square toe that has become the default shape for better player hybrids following the popularity of the Adams originals. This design puts more weight in this area of the club to make it more forgiving. At address it sits very well with the leading edge square with the top line giving the optical illusion of the club being open.
The Apex Hybrid plays as a neutral CG club, not as an anti-left club. It is easy enough to shape the ball left and right as well as up and down. The overall flight in normal mode is a touch higher than the equivalent numbered iron from the Apex CF 16 set. The feel is very good and the Apex Hybrid gives a nice 'ting' sound at impact that feels as solid and light as the excellent Mitsubishi KuroKage Hybrid shaft that it comes with as standard.
