Callaway says the face of the X2 Hot driver is 4 percent larger than the face of the previous X Hot model, without adding any weight. The X2 Hot drivers debut the company's Hyper Speed Face technology, which creates a large sweet spot positioned where golfers are most likely to make contact with the ball. In addition, players can independently adjust the drivers' loft and lie with Callaway's Advanced Optifit Hosel. The loft can be decreased by 1 degree or increased by up to 2 degrees to help optimize the launch angle and backspin, while the lie angle also can be adjusted between Neutral and Draw. A total of eight settings are available to adjust trajectory and shot shape. The standard version contains a 460cc head, offers 9-, 10.5- and 13.5-degree lofts, and comes stock with an Aldila Tour Blue shaft. The Pro version, available in an 8.5-degree offering, is 440cc, features a lower and more neutral center of gravity, and includes a 7-gram external weight and a stock Aldila Tour Green shaft. The standard shaft for the X2 Hot driver is the Aldila Tour Blue, while the Callaway X Hot Driver comes with the Aldila Tour Green shaft. The Aldila Tour Blue shaft is somewhat softer than the Tour Green and produces a higher trajectory. Tour Green has been more popular than Tour Blue on the PGA Tour, but Bill Haas and a few other players have used Tour Blue. The loft range varies from 2 degrees up to 1 degree down from the stock loft of each driver. Lofts for X2 Hot are 9, 10.5 and 13.5 HT. For X2 Hot Pro, only one loft is available: 8.5 degree. With loft adjustment, the Pro model can be lowered to 7.5 degree or raised as high as 10.5 degree.
