MacGregor MACTEC NVG2 UT Hybrid Utility Woods
Hybrids benefit from Cup Face technology in a big way. They're designed with smaller heads for expanded functionality, and Cup Face 360? makes the entire face the sweet spot. The proprietary plasma welding is completely off the face, enabling maximum rebound properties over a larger hitting area.
The patented Tri-Plane sole reduces turf drag at ball impact for more solid contact from all kinds of turf conditions. MacGregor's engineers worked overtime to maximize sole plate aerodynamics, so those 170-yard shots look less and less imposing, even to the casual golfer. One swing with the NVG2 Hybrid will change the way you think about golf.
Cup Face 360?
No face welds - the entire face is the sweet spot. Every shot feels like dead center.
It may only be a few millimeters on the face, but hitting the ball off-center instead of direct-center usually means chipping instead of putting. With Cup Face 360? technology, the entire face becomes a sweet spot. With no welds anywhere on the face, this technology pushes the boundary to the maximum possible surface area - 30% more, in fact. Hybrids are designed to be easy to hit; MACTEC Cup Face 360? makes every shot feels like it was hit dead center.
450 Maraging Steel
Variable face thickness. Incredible distance.
Cup Face 360? technology requires a metal with two principal attributes. First, it has to be strong enough to withstand the variable thickness design that enables high-rebound properties. Of the many choices of alloys, maraging steels offer the best combination of strength and elongation (elasticity). Secondly, the metal also has to be soft enough to provide a high level of feel, for more shot control. Within the maraging steel family, 450 has an ideally low carbon content, so it provides accuracy along with explosive distance.
Quadra Tungsten Weighting
Higher MOI. Less twisting. Greater accuracy.
Over-rotation of the clubhead through impact closes the face, pulling the ball low and left of target. Under-rotation (the bane of high handicappers) leaves the face open, pushing the ball high and right of the target. To keep the face square as it traverses the hitting zone, the NVG2 hybrid utility wood has been designed with precision tungsten weights. Two 10 gram weights in the sole, toward the heel and toe, lower the CG and stabilize the head. Two additional 1.5 gram weights are located in the extreme heel and toe, pushing the MOI even higher. The result is a square, stable clubface that launches the ball high, long and straight.
Deep Face Construction
Bigger vertical sweet spot. More solid shots.
A fairway wood and a fluffy lie can be an explosive combination, one that all too often ends up a blow-up hole. This won't happen with the NVG2 hybrid utility wood. The deep face construction creates more vertical surface area, and thus a larger vertical sweet spot. You can swing with the confidence of knowing you won't get under the ball and keep the explosion on the clubface, not the scorecard.
Innovative Sole Plate
Reduced turf drag. Easier, higher shots.
Imagination, inspiration and innovation have never been more evident than in the sole design of MacGregor's NVG2 hybrid utility woods. The exclusive Tri-Plane sole, long a patented design asset of MacGregor's Tour-tested Bobby Grace putters, has been adapted for use in the NVG2 hybrid utility woods. A slightly angled heel and toe produces a defined foundation at the center of the sole to promote clubhead stability at address. The Tri-Plane sole reduces turf drag at ball impact for more solid contact from all kinds of turf conditions. MacGregor's engineers worked overtime to maximize sole plate aerodynamics, so those 170-yard shots look less and less imposing, even to the casual golfer.
