Callaway Golf, known for producing some long drivers, has taken special notice of long drivers this year and has codeveloped a new driver. The 2014 newest Callaway X Hot Driver reviews has been played by me.
While testing the X Hot driver, I made a point to do two things. I wanted to swing the driver as I do normally using my normal swing speed and tempo, and then again as though I was trying my best to mimic a professional long driver. Typically, the harder or faster I swing a driver, the more backspin I generate, which actually shortens my overall distance.
I have to be honest, I was a little intimidated. Knowing I had an adjustable hosel helped a little, but the added length and low loft made me feel as though I had to swing a little harder to make the club work for me. I wished the head had a small alignment dot or something, so I could assure myself of a setup that placed the ball directly in front of the sweet spot.
This Callaway X2 Hot Driver, on the other hand, showed little to no difference in trajectory when I swung really hard. And, I took a few real pops at it, expsecting either to balloon the ball or drive it into the ground, and the results were so long and consistent, I actually felt like a long drive competitor for a moment.
I didn't have a Trackman on the course, but I did hit a handful of tee shots, and my solid shots with the Callaway X Hot Hybrid were easily 10 to 15 yards longer than my good ones with my standard Mizuno JPX825 Driver, that is, when I swung with some extra oomph. When I missed the sweet spot, I lost out on some distance and control, but that was excusable in my book.
The results were astonishingly better than when I swung excessively hard with my normal driver, both in terms of distance and, surprisingly, accuracy.
