Callaway has another big hit on their hands with this driver! It is the bestselling driver this year so far. It is an absolute dream to hit.
Not only does it perform, but the Boeing involvement has certainly made an impact both on sales and performance of this club. Callaway worked with the aerodynamics experts at Boeing to redefine what’s possible with ball speed in a deeper face. To make it faster, Callaway put in the distance technology from their completely re-engineered face and a lighter Speed Step Crown, and Boeing helped in creating the most aerodynamic head shape ever produced at Callaway. Combining lower spin and a more neutral CG bias into a 450cc head, the results were far better than expected.
This is a remarkably fast and forgiving driver for players who already get a lot of distance off the tee. This thing is fast like you wouldn’t believe, with a high speed head and lower drag in the crown that, as you can guess, is going to add some serious ball speed. It’s forgiving with more MOI, a Speed Step Crown, and a Center of Gravity that’s lower and deeper.
Callaway’s next generation R*MOTO face is also lighter and thinner for more speed all across the face. And, of course, you can choose from a great selection of shaft options to fit your swing speed.
I suggest that using Callaway’s new Chrome Soft balls with this driver, especially for higher handicappers, will bring you a large smile and more distance to your game. $399.99 www.callawaygolf.com
