I just bought the Callaway X Hot Driver this past week. I can't say much about it on the course. A friend of mine also just got one and he is hitting it very well. Anyone impressed with this new driver?
The X Hot is a lighter head than the Razr Fit Xtreme - so the slower your clubhead speed - the more performance boost you may see from the X Hot driver. Callaway used the thinnest casting technology it has ever used to create an 460cc all-titanium, grey coloured clubhead that is lighter, and can help golfers in terms of head speed and distance, especially those with average swing speeds.
It features the adjustable OptiFit Hosel. The hosel allows golfers to choose from an open, square or closed face angle to improve the look of the driver at address and help alignment, accuracy and trajectory. Callaway have combined the X Hot driver with the Project X Velocity shaft, as standard, with dozens of custom shafts also available.
Callaway say the X2 Hot driver is 9 yards longer than the original X Hot driver, thanks to a thinner face, larger sweet spot and improved head shape. It features the fastest, thinnest, lightest titanium face. After researching colours, Callaway decided to make the grey crown colour a little darker than before to create a more premium feel. New, white-coloured channels combine with Callaway's orange X2 Hot-accent colour on the sole of the driver to give a modern, sleek, new look.
Beyond the colours, an improved overall headshape and construction improved the mass, weight and aerodynamics of the X2 Hot driver further improving consistency and forgiveness. Three heads of 9.5, 10.5 and 13.5 degrees are available and golfers can use the Advanced Adjustable Hosel to increase the loft by 1 or 2 degrees or decrease the loft by 1 degree.
Yes, for me the Callaway X Hot 2 Driver is a great driver. Optimised for longer distance, the mid torque shaft is said to offer great feel and control whilst launching the ball higher with less spin.
