Pinemeadow Command BK Hybrids

(as alternative to the TaylorMade® Dual TP Hybrids)

Golf Club Review: Pinemeadow Command BK Hybrids

Manufacturer: Pinemeadow Golf

Model: Pinemeadow Command BK Hybrids

Compares to: TaylorMade® Rescue Dual TP

Manufacturer's Description Details: The Command Hybrids have a new look with the same great features that have made them our most popular hybrids to-date. Our exclusive black pearl finish gives these clubs a sleek, stylish look. They come equipped with two rear 6g weights designed to lower the center-of-gravity, increase the MOI (moment-of-inertia) and allow for shot shaping.

The adjustable weight-port technology gives you the ability to shift the weight of the club head to promote different shot types. Whether you prefer a draw, fade or straight ball flight expect to see longer shots, increased launch and improved accuracy. Use the hybrids directly off the tee, straight out of the rough or on tight lies right off the fairway.

Our Review: These Hybrids are a follow-up to the recently launched black Pinemeadow Command BK Irons. The shining black color gives these Hybrids a unique look, again very elegant and sophisticated just like the irons we tested earlier. Actually, it's not just 'black' but 'black pearl', which reminds me of a recent popular movie starring Johnny Depp - pure coincidence I'm sure...

Anyways, a small drawback of the black-pearl color is that the number on the clubhead is a bit difficult to see, so you have to look closely before you pull one out of your bag.

The test clubs came with the standard hybrid graphite shaft and standard grip, a high quality combination that will suit most golfers. The graphite shaft is an excellent match for the club, and you should never change it to a steel shaft just to save a few bucks. Overall the quality of the club is superb as expected from Pinemeadow Golf.

One of the outstanding features of the Pinemeadow Command BK Hybrids is their ability to customise the weight distribution in the clubhead. The club comes with two weight plugs of 2 grams and 6 grams each. If you tend to slice just put the 6 gram weight into the heel and the 2 grams into the toe, and you are able to compensate. We played around with the weights, and it really works!

The Hybrids come in four different lofts and are able to replace all your long irons. They are easy to hit, even off a (short) tee. The club head is quite heavy, which allows the easy use of these Hybrids in the rough. The heavy weight also allows for some good distance, all very well appreciated characteristics.

Overall these Hybrids are a great choice in case you're struggling with your longer irons, and/or if you tend to slice your ball with your irons. The Pinemeadow Command BK Hybrids deliver excellent playability and, given the superb graphite hybrid shaft, great value.
 
Likes: Adjustable for different swing patterns, especially slicers.

Dislikes: Numbers on the club are a bit difficult to read. Not available for Lefties.

I have their 3, 4, 5 hybrids with graphite shaft. I love the 4 and 5 hybrids but not so crazy about the 3 hybrid, but maybe it is just my problem.
