TECH TALK: The company's lightweight carbon-fiber material is used to form the clubhead's crown and sole. The overall design is enhanced by a spin-cast-nickel rear-weight pad and a thin aluminum skid plate on the sole. A chemically milled titanium cupface helps improve face flexibility on off-center hits.
PLAYER COMMENTS:
L: "It sets up darn-near perfect. That evokes a feeling that you can take a rip at it without fear."
M: "This thing is a freakin' rocket. Toe strikes sounded like center strikes. It sits square, and it's exactly what I want to hear."
HOT: Callaway's new carbon-fiber formula establishes the foundation for a more precisely shaped and weighted driver that gives new meaning to the expression "doing more with less."
NOT: We would have expected Callaway to use its material technology to explore clubhead adjustability by now.
