Description: Sweet Spot Golf offers women’s golf equipment and their current Pink Line features drivers, hybrids and putters. The Sweet Spot Golf H-3 hybrid features a triangular club shape that promotes a center of gravity back (CGB) resulting in a high moment of inertia (MOI) and more stable club face upon impact.

The Tear-drop head design, inspired by bicycle racing helmets, promotes less drag aerodynamically resulting in faster club head speed. The H-3 hybrid features the Precision Positioning System for target alignment. This unique alignment system is unique to Sweet Spot and is incorporated into all of their clubs providing a consistent look across driver, hybrid and putter. The H-3 Hybrid comes in three models: H-3 (19 degrees), H-4 (22 degrees) and H-5 (25 degrees). The hybrid features a Custom Pink Shaft by Matrix or a Black Platinum Pro-Tour shaft by Alpha Golf. With any purchase of a product from the company’s Pink Line, Sweet Spot Golf will make a donation to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. The line has been endorsed by the Women’s National Golf Schools.

Review: We reviewed the H-3 hybrid with 19 degrees of loft and 39″ length. The first thing that you notice about the club is the alignment marks on the crown of the head. These marks make alignment of the club a snap and combined with the hot pink color frame the ball at address offering a high degree of confidence that you are aligned correctly.

We knew the focus of the company was the look of these clubs. Their corporate tagline says it all: “GO AHEAD. BE DIFFERENT”. With the unique alignment aid and pink color, it would be easy to categorize these clubs as gimmicky and dismiss the possibility that they could also perform. We were pleasantly surprised when we tested this hybrid out on the range and on the course. Our group of testers included a girls’ high school golf team. They instantly liked the look. It only took a few swings to quickly realized there are more to the clubs than their appearance. The low profile head design and rear weighting makes the H-3 hybrid easy to hit and get the ball airborne. They offer a forgiving head design that has a solid feel to it. They were equally easy to hit off the tee and fairway and we found the club’s length to be longer than many hybrids we have tested. We give the H-3 Hybrid high marks for it unique look in the hybrid category and its good all around performance that should not be overlooked. Additionally, you are supporting a worthy cause when you buy these clubs. The Pink Line also includes a 13 degree driver and putter that features both a milled and poly insert.
