HiPPO Hex2 Men's Driver

HiPPO Hex2 Men's Driver Review



HiPPO Hex2 Men's Driver Feature

  • Men's driver with innovative hexagonal shape for maximum distance
  • Distributes weight through the clubhead to reduce side spin and increase energy transfer
  • Employs 6 grams of additional weight at aft corners to produce high moment of inertia (MOI)
  • Aerodynamically shaped clubhead reduces drag on the backswing for higher head speed
  • Shaft offers state-of-the-art Quad Pure fibers; soft wrap "synleather" grip
Golf innovations come in many shapes and sizes, but few innovations are quite as original as the Hippo Hex2 men's driver. The driver's unique hexagonal shape not only looks cool, but it also distributes the weight optimally throughout the clubhead, thus reducing the effect of side spin and providing more energy transfer from the club face to the ball. The result is the straightest and longest driver ever designed. The Hex2 also employs Hippo's patented Integrated Technology, which marries ultra-light woven 3K carbon-fiber radius side rails to a 6-4 titanium crown and sole. Because the crown and sole are welded to the super-hard-forged beta ti face, the club enjoys the thinnest face possible, creating a swing with a powerful trampoline effect and unmatched power.

Other details include 6 grams of additional weight at the aft corners to provide an extremely high moment of inertia (MOI) and help minimize mis-hits; an aerodynamically shaped clubhead that reduces drag on the backswing and generates higher head speed at impact; Hippo's proprietary CP4 shaft, which offers state-of-the-art Quad Pure graphite fibers; and a soft wrap "synleather" grip.

About HiPPO
The HiPPO golf brand was born out of Howson Sports, a UK based sports equipment manufacturer in 1989. It has grown rapidly to become the largest European-based brand in the golf industry. The original objective was to create a unique wood head design that would provide superior performance at excellent value to the golfer. A team of UK based professionals, including PGA European Tour Director and player DJ Russell, was recruited to thoroughly test prototypes. After a considerable length of time, a wood head was found that showed significantly improved results from all other prototypes and clubs from would-be competitors at the time. From the development of the original wood, HiPPO has continued to push the boundaries of technology with product development teams based both in the UK and US headquarters working continually on new ideas. The brand is now extended across a full range of equipment from award-winning irons to golf bags and accessories, all offering unbeatable performance at exceptional value.

The HEX2 features a unique hexagonal shape that allows optimum weight distribution to reduce the effect of side spin and provide more energy transfer from club face to ball resulting in the straightest and longest driver ever designed. The aerodynamically shaped 460cc club head is designed to reduce drag on the backswing and generate higher head speed at impact.HiPPO's patented Integrated Technology marries ultra light woven 3K carbon fiber radius side rails to a 6-4 titanium crown and sole that is welded to the super hard forged Beta Ti face allowing the thinnest face possible for maximum COR and distance. Six grams of additional weight at the aft corners provide an extremely high Moment of Inertia (MOI) and help stabilize the club head on miss hits, ensuring straighter drives. The HEX2 is powered by HiPPO's CP4 proprietary shaft utilizing state of the art Quad Pure with high modulus graphite fibers.
