 So, when is a hybrid? Not a hybrid. Is it when it's a highwood? And when is a fairway wood? Not a fairway wood. Is it when it's a highwood? Yep, it is of course the Cleveland highwood and it's very much the review that you've all been asking for and put me onto this club and we're going to find out what makes it so special. Right, so the first question I asked myself is what is so special about this club and what makes it so different, well quite simply, it is a hybrid of hybrids and fairways and it is a shorter shaft. That shaft being the length of a standard hybrid with a head the size of a fairway wood. That coupled with 18 degrees of loft, it's suggesting it's a three highwood and it's certainly not a three fairway wood and it's closer to a three hybrid in terms of distance. It feels very good, let me tell you already, it performs exceptionally well in a number of different situations. So it's very much a positive start out there on the fairways but I've come back inside full golf chester and what I want to see from this is what I might actually get in terms of data. So what I'm really interested in for this club in particular is the carry distance and spin and descents. They're probably the three things I'm looking because what I want to know is where does this possibly fit into your bag setup? It's 18 degrees but what does it really do? In terms of performance comparable to maybe an 18 degree five wood, for example. Time to find out, I think. OK, so the first thing for me is what I want to see is what this thing does with just a sort of an easy swing. So we're not going after this, we're just, we've got a green setup, we're playing a nice part three at a dead manner which is, I think it's a couple of hundred yards from T to green. So an easy one to start proceedings. OK, so slightly down that left hand side, it's an OK-ish start and interesting enough we're kind of like, well we're top end of that sort of 180 creeping into perhaps 190. So the second shot because I really do think this is a very playable club and also very versatile. I just want to add a little bit more to it and see if we can perhaps just change the shape a little as well. That's a much better strike, a much higher ball flight and a lot longer, I would say. We're still down that left hand side, turn that one over a bit but the carry difference changes significantly, that's 207 carry, so straight away we've got some significant sort of versatility in this thing in terms of how far the ball can actually travel so I love that first of all. I'm going to finish off with my last shot which is sort of, if I'm playing from the T I want a bit of distance and I'm sort of going after this thing I'm swinging the ball quite well, the club quite well. How far can we get with this thing? Absolutely. Mull of that is the technical term I think. That's gone a long, long way. That's carried very much that back end of the green and topping out as I thought, well a little bit longer than I thought to be quite honest from what I've been seeing out on the course. So there is clearly a lot of versatility in this club in terms of how it can be played which can not often be said about your typical three-word. So I suppose the question is, what is it that gives me the confidence to perhaps try those three different shots and I think first of all it's going to be mentioned quite a lot during this video. It's the control again that this shorter length shaft gives. So that combination, shorter shaft, bigger head but it says 18 degrees but it seems to present more loft visually than 18 degrees. Crown sits really nice at a dress and it just for me visually just gives me a whole lot of confidence like I said from how close I am to the ball perspective, length of shaft, I just feel I've got plenty of control over that clubhead. Really, really sort of impressed with how this thing has performed inside. I don't know whether you're catching the sound or not, that's a really high ball again. I mean really decent strike there. It's performed incredibly well. I don't know whether you're catching the sound or it's what I was saying. It's a good balance. It's a good balance between this thing feels like it's firing on out there. You've got plenty of responsiveness into the ends. It is again ticking all the boxes inside here at four golf. There's not a lot more I can tell you to be quite honest with you. The kind of carry distances I think it's a case of going back out to the course. Now one thing you've got to get right is no matter how good the product is in terms of performance, for me first of all you've got to get people in. You've got to get people trying it. So shelf appeal and how this thing looks for me is really, really important. Especially for Cleveland because Cleveland I always think is slightly up against it. They've got to get that club in people's hands and when they do from what I see and what I read from comments most of you are really, really impressed with it. It's also got to be right in terms of price point. So this product is 209 in terms of the UK. That's the kind of price point, £200. That's what I'm seeing it for. In terms of how it looks, I think it looks really, really good. I think they've done an exceptional job. Again that muted mat crown looks absolutely superb. But then I think from the underneath perspective again where it sits what you see on the shelf really good colouring. Not too over the top, nice and subtle. Again, them rails are really important that you can see. Slightly raised rails on the bottom there which we'll talk about next. So if you are new to the channel then please consider subscribing. I am very much the average golfer. If you're a long time viewer of the channel then well thanks for watching. Back to me inside just for a second or two. Just wanted to show you this dry ball that you offer a number of shots. Like I said, trying a variety of different shot types. What you'll see is it's that as we've shown in those first three strikes I hit inside very much can control a difference from sort of that top endo 180 but then the kind of one that you go after is I think it's 212 or something but again the spin drops off considerably when you try and hit that knuckle ball. Interesting, good peak height, good descent angle, you can see the launch angle. It's basically reiterating the points that we found in here and it seems like on the course as well. Get back out on the course for evaluation time and I think this is where you truly learn how a club performs and I've got to say like it does everything so so well. Maybe the surprise for me and the thing you need to be careful of is just to make sure that what you're expecting in terms of distance when you see a three high wood don't be confused like I said is it being a fair way wood in terms of distance because it's nothing like that. Clearly that's sure to shaft plays a big part in that but for me that was the key take away point in terms of what I found in terms of distance. Yeah in dry ball data but more importantly in reality out here on the golf course but like I said if you were a club that everyone, not everyone a lot of golfers struggle with hitting a ball from a lie on the fairway with a three wood. This makes it a damn sight easier. Also if you're struggling off the tee this would be a nice go to club to help you out to get a bit of confidence back. Again does it really well. It's really just reiterated the points we continually make on this channel about that shorter shaft really. I think that's the big again take away point it's just having greater control and the thing zips off it at times it almost feels illegal the way it's trampolining out there it's fast ball speeds it's so so good as you can tell really really maybe even almost a tad surprise just how good it is and I'll tell you how good it is just straight in my bag and the reason it's going to do that it's going to fill a void that I've been trying to fill for a long long time and that's a club that I really like at the sort of 210 yardage always have struggled with a lot of different hybrids but for me this kind of thing fits the bill goes in at 210 and oddly enough it's shorter than my 18 degree five wood so like I said loft is only one small part of the equation there's lots of things to consider and funnily enough you've seen it from inside in terms of dry ball days you've seen it performing outside here thank you for giving me the heads up in terms of all the people who told me that I should have a look at this thing I really do owe you one because I love it anyway thanks for watching give me your comments down below get me your feedback and I will see you all soon thanks for watching this has been the average golfer from hollywell golf bye for now
