Liked the setup of this one and the nike 5000 sq, will not buy nike becuase of company ethics issues, so the hyper x it is. Tried many on golfsmith vector monitor, most were very similar in launch and spin.

stubbornly realized that i needed to move up to a 10.5 loft to achieve optimal launch conditions. Had the original hi-bore driver, loved it for 3 years, unfortunately for me i don't launch it the way i did when i bought it (9.5). The club is a gem and should stay with me a while. But if we find something like this, that takes away the doubt, we will hit it longer & better.Īnd even without the usual arrow decal on the crown, the set up is so clean and square, I think I prefer the spotless top of the head anyway. I believe driver technology has stagnated. I dont believe the club itself is longer than others. THAT produces the added distance & accuracy. And then I get to drive away hard without worry. What I like so much is knowing that tendency is not lurking when I set up to drive. Who would ever think callaway would make such a thing? If you tend to slice, stay away from the tour model. The main feature (the reason I bought it) is told in other reviews it is the cure for hookitis. That is a very good shaft - very true & consistent, never unpredictable. I bought he 9.5º Tour model with the Fujikura stiff 360 Fit On shaft. I found it on the callaway used website in brand new condition for $146. Callaway hasn't made anything as good since until I got my hands on this one.

My last callaway driver was the 454 model and I really missed it. I have (though) bought & sold about 5 others in this time and never felt the need to kick it out of the bag. I've used a Titleist 905r (8.5º) for a few years - that is a long time for me (considering my compulsive / impulsive nature).
