Equipment Review: G.R.I.P. Hyper Steel Hybrid

My Test:
The first thing you notice with the Hyper Steel is the two weight ports located near the toe and heel of the hybrid. As I currently play the R7 425, which utilizes similar technology, I was ecstatic to try out the movable weights in a hybrid. The adjustable weights in the hybrid allows players to adjust the club based whether they hit a hook, slice, fade, or draw. Because of my frequent battles with a hook, I adjusted the club with ease to help neutralize my hook. At the range, I found the club very easy to hit as well as to get up in the air. The hybrid did take off a little too high making it difficult to control, but did perform better than my usual iron. The only other difficulty I found was that distance control sometimes became difficult. The G.R.I.P. would definitely be a good club for the middle to high handicapper who struggles with getting the ball high in the air, or struggles landing long irons on the green.
Technology:
Again, the most noticeable feature about the G.R.I.P. hybrid is the movable screws. The screw kit includes a small tool for removal and installation, a 6 gram brass screw, and a 3 gram aluminum screw. The stock hybrid comes with a Hyper Steel, uniflex shaft with a mid-to-low kickpoint. The stock setup also includes a soft, twp-piece grip. G.R.I.P.'s product line in the Hyper Steel series is:
* 2H - 2 Iron Replacement

*3H - 3 Iron Replacement
*4H - 4 Iron Replacement
*5H - 5 Iron Replacement
How to Get it:
The Hyper Steel hybrids may be found at G.R.I.P.'s website: http://www.gogrip.com/ . The first hybrid is $69.95 and each additional hybrid costs $49.95. In conclusion, I found the hybrid very easy to hit, but sometimes to easy and forgiving for the better player. A high handicap or player who struggles with long irons will find this product very helpful. The Hyper Steel receives a Golf Heaven rating of 3 out of 5 stars for its ease of use.
