The drivers have similar head construction with one major difference: the Edge driver has a lower center of gravity and a higher launch. You’ll get a 5 hybrid (replacing a 5 iron) with all three sets (12, 14, and 16), and an additional 4 hybrid (replacing a 4 iron) with the 16 piece set. It is worth noting at this point that the set is more suited to average and faster swing speeds and we would recommend another set if you are a slow swinger. For serious golfers, the only real solution to pain-in-the-rear 3-5 irons may be to practice more and get better at using them. Most of the same characteristics that make this great for beginners can also benefit higher-handicap players.

Callaway Strata Review (2023 Update) • Honest Golfers

I bought a strata set as a 75 year old absolute beginner and I am happy to say that after 6 months of play my game has improved steadily,the irons seem pretty consistent and as a slow swinger I sometimes struggle with length. The extra sweet spot allows you to hit the ball a little off-center without severely impacting the overall distance and direction of the shot. This point might come across a little contradictory after saying the bag has everything you need to play golf but hear me out. As mentioned above, the set comes with a hybrid which in itself is a much more forgiving club than a long iron. Everything a beginning golfer needs, but also good for players who have been playing for a while and still need game improvement clubs.You also get a good stand bag, which is really helpful, and virtually the same clubs come in this set as the Strata. It contains pockets galore — five regular pickets plus a cooler pocket, and its rain hood protects your clubs from any possible weather issues. Also, the items are well-crafted enough that it would take a long time even for inexperienced players to wear them out. The driver has a large but light head, while the hybrid version has a head similar to a wood or driver.

Without a wedge more lofted than a pitching wedge, this can be difficult to accomplish and also prevents you from learning the basic techniques of pitching and chipping. The target consumer for these clubs will just be learning how to make solid contact with the ball so that working the ball right-to-left or left-to-right is neither the concern of the golfer nor the club. However, you might get to a point where you’d like to use a sand wedge for example but the set only comes with a pitching wedge.We have mentioned this feature enough, but it is the main thing other than quality that separates these 2 sets of clubs. With an option for stiff shafts and a little bit better build quality, that one will be a better option for you. Woods: Driver has a 460cc club head with a larger sweet spot and graphite shaft for more distance off the tee. They cost more than most other complete sets out there, but if you want a little higher quality club these are at the top of the list.

This “complete” set includes all the aforementioned clubs as well as a sand wedge, an additional hybrid club, and 4 head covers. The irons also feature a hollow design which give you a higher MOI and more forgiveness not to mention a little more explosiveness at contact. The Irons still have steel shafts in the woman’s set so if you are a slow swinger, you may want to go with a different set. This will be a great benefit for women golfers who are really trying to work on getting their driver and iron distance up as the clubs are balanced enough to impart good swing mechanics and heavy enough to give you that extra distance you may be looking for.No headcover is provided for the hybrid in this set but you do get two matching ones for the driver and 3 wood. However, this set still provides the same benefits as the men’s Strata set with maximum forgiveness and great quality. If you’re a player who struggles to hit your irons, you might be considering taking them out of the bag and investing in some hybrid irons.
