Callaway Diablo Hybrid
Callaway Big Bertha Diablo hybrid
The Callaway Big Bertha Diablo as well as late entries Diablo Edge and Edge Tour Hybrid lines are standards for high performance at a manageable price.
The new Diablo Edge and Edge Tour offer very thin crowns allowing for a good low placement of CG (center of gravity) in line with where most better players tend to strike the club face. This provides more launch capability and reduces twisting on shots that are struck slightly off center.
The standard Edge model is slightly offset to combat a slice, problematic with most amateurs, while the Edge Tour version is set up with much less of an offset and is almost neutral.
Variable thickness is found in the club face on both models which allows for better transfer of energy to the ball during impact.
Overall both of these Diablo entries have great feel and the tour model sets up almost as if your are putting a long iron down behind the ball. It seems to be one solid piece of equipment that is sure to be popular with a wide variety of mid to low handicappers as well as professionals.
The Diablo Edge is offered in 21, 24, 27, and 30 degree lofts while the Edge Tour in 18, 21, and 24. Surprisingly, the retail price point for both models is respectably around $160 which seems fair considering the design technology each contain.
