ELYTE  R6 500

• This new edition

maximises distance for average golfers through adjustability and lie angle.

• After researching thousands of average-golfer swings, Callaway

concluded that the proper lie angle was crucial to better contact with hybrids, hence the reason for the new emphasis on optimising it. • The adjustable hosel tweaks lie angle by up to 2 degrees. • The mid-size profile eases the transition from irons. • Top 5 in Performance, high-handicaps • 19, 22, 26, 30 degrees (seven-way adjustable hosel)
