Bread & Butter Loco 16mm Hybrid verdict

The shape most Loco buyers should start with. It keeps the long handle and most of the drive output while widening the face enough to make off-center contact survivable.

CRBN TruFoam Genesis 3 verdict

The hybrid sits between the other two Genesis shapes on every measured axis. If you cannot decide between reach and forgiveness, this is the shape that refuses to make you choose.
