One of the most reputable names in the golf industry, Callaway Golf has maintained popularity with golf pros and amateurs alike. Callaway’s founder, Ely E. Callaway, started the company with the goal of creating high-performance clubs and balls that would enable low- and high-handicappers to improve their game and enjoy the sport more. Callaway engineers have continued to design lines of award-winning clubs and making Callaway the top company in Golf Digest’s famed annual Hot List.

The Diablo Edge line has taken top awards in the 2009, 2010, and 2011 Golf Digest Hot List. As a popular club in that line, the Callaway Diablo Edge Tour 2 Hybrid has impressed tour professionals and experienced amateurs with its superior workability, distancing-enhancing design, and higher trajectories. Reviews have praised its ease of handling, great control, and versatile use.

While new to the hybrid market, Callaway Golf has lost no time in becoming a top competitor in the hybrid field. Its line of Diablo Edge Hybrids is specifically designed to replace long irons, which can be inconsistent and difficult to control for some players.

These hybrids feature two of Callaway’s best designs: VFT Technology and vertical center of gravity optimization. Callaway clubs with VFT Technology have optimized club face thickness; the hybrids feature thin edges and thicker centers for greater powder. Callaway engineers have used 30% thinner crowns for a much lower center of gravity designed specifically for the part of the club that is most likely to make contact with the ball.

The Callaway Diablo Edge Tour 2 Hybrid has a tour-inspired design for more experienced players. While the line of Diablo Edge Hybrids features an offset hosel, the tour model has a slightly less offset design for greater workability. The unique sole is designed for versatility and accuracy throughout the course. The Callaway Diablo Edge Tour 2 Hybrid has an 18-degree loft, 58.8-degree lie, and 40.75” length.

The Golf Digest Hot List represents the industry standard of club reviews. The Callaway Diablo Edge Tour 2 Hybrid top awards in both the 2010 Hot List and 2011 Hot List represent its quality, performance, and innovation. This hybrid received exceptional performance and demand ratings and great innovation and look/feel/sound ratings.

Reviews have emphasized the club’s quality look and feel. Many players noted that they achieved increased distances, greater control, and more accurate shots with this club. Testers were able to make use of the club throughout the course, from the tee to the green.
