Is there any shot in golf more daunting than a lengthy approach shot into a green? Like from 200 yards out or even longer? Many of us naturally turn to a bulky fairway wood or low-lofted long iron, and often fail. The odds of most golfers hitting the green from those distances with those clubs, well, frankly suck. True, there are some great hybrids in 2023 that will greatly improve your chances of sticking it on the dance floor. But the farther out you are, the less likely a hybrid can get the job done. So Callaway came up with a solution.

The Paradym Super Hybrid sits alongside the standard Paradym hybrid, but is built for driver-like power. The company actually took the same blueprint and materials for its Paradym driver and downsized it into this hybrid. This includes an all-titanium, A.I.-designed clubface that yields power and distance. The titanium body is also oversized and sports a triaxial carbon crown. Plus triple MIM weighting promotes extreme forgiveness and a piercing trajectory. Up to 91 grams of tungsten and steel speed cartridges in each clubhead help precisely position the center of gravity for a more penetrating launch. All of this adds up to noticeably longer shots with nice accuracy – all from a smaller hybrid clubhead that looks pretty easy to hit at address.
Callaway boldly markets this as a club made for golfers who want the power of a fairway wood and the versatility of a hybrid – claiming it’s designed specifically to be easier to hit than a fairway wood and give you the confidence to take on the most demanding shots. That also includes tee shots down a narrow fairway.

It’s offered in base lofts of 16, 18, 21, 24 and 27 degrees – the clubheads get smaller as the loft increases – but those are also adjustable from the lightweight OptiFit 3 hosel, helping you dial in the ball flight and launch that you want to see. The deep blue color we now associate with the Paradym range happens to look outstanding as you’re standing over the ball. Plus there’s a slightly squared-off look to the toe we find attractive.
