#Razr x hot driver review drivers#
It is slightly louder than the RAZR drivers because of the use of titanium vs. The sound is a very pleasant metallic sound. the desire for the X-Hot to go left in the “straight” setting. I did change it to the “open” setting which did bring the launch down a little and it also seemed to create a middle ball flight vs. I didn’t have any issues elevating this driver. It tends to rise quickly and go fairly high. You can just feel the ball explode off the face. (It was wind and hill assisted, but it still counts)
#Razr x hot driver review Patch#
I am happy to say that I did earn my X Hot bomb patch with this driver. The ball speeds are some of the fastest I have found in any driver. Callaway created their fastest face for this driver and it shows. The speed frame face is the real “tech” behind this driver.

It comes in either the standard or pro models. It is an all titanium head with Callaway’s Opti-fit hosel.

Overall, it’s not hard to see why this club made Golf’s Digest’s Hot List Gold for 2013.While the X Hot is the less technical model in the Callaway driver line-up, it still offers many great features. I’m always good with having some alignment help on top of a club that needs to hit the fairway! On the flip side, I do like the gray finish and racing stripe on top along with the alignment mark. I’m really surprised at how quickly the bottom of the head looked old and worn with a few swings hitting it off the deck on soft turf. The paint job on the bottom of the club is just not made to last. If I have a knock on the driver, it’s a knock I have on quite a few current drivers, fairyway woods and hybrids. The more I’ve trusted it and released it through impact, I’ve hit it out there distance-wise with any driver I’ve tried. As I got used to the different feel, I started to trust this driver which meant I was able to hit it where I was looking and my misses tended to be very findable. This ‘Speed Frame Face’ is hot– the ball really jumps off of it which gives it good distance from off-center hits. Additionally, the X Hot is weighted with a slight draw bias. To be fair, the driver did take a few rounds for me to get used to primarily because it has a lighter head than I’ve been using (a D3 swing weight at 460cc’s compared to D4), along with a Project X stiff shaft, at 46 inches (which is touch longer than I have been using). For this review, I tested the 9.5 degree head with it adjusted to the open setting to have a touch less loft but play with it square at address.

One quick screw on the bottom of the head with a standard club wrench will make the setup of the driver up open or closed and with a degree less or more loft. It’s also got one simple add-on: an adjustable head. However, after trying the Callaway X Hot Driver, I have to say, Callaway is back in the driver business! This is an all-titanium head that feels and sounds the way I expected a Callaway driver to feel and play. Moreover, the other models seemed lackluster as well which led to nearly a decade of me not playing Callaway drivers. The RAZR Fit Xtreme is the longest adjustable driver on the market, claims Callaway.Compared to the previous model the lighter crown combines with the new speed frame face to lower the centre of. The fact is, I was disappointed with the performance and just couldn’t get used to the swing weight, sound or feel of the composite drivers. Or is it? I have to admit, after using Callaway drivers for years, I had found that I was just not very happy with many of their models.
