The RAZR X Black is this season’s new hot club following in the footsteps of this years RAZR FIT driver. I am an avid Callaway driver user I have the 2011 Callaway RAZR Hawk and the Callaway Diablo Edge Tour driver as well. I had heard about the new Callaway RAZR X Black from advertisements and in golf magazines. The headcover is really nice with the addition of the slotted handle for easy removal and a nice long sock to protect the shaft.I must admit, when I was first asked to review this driver, I was very excited.
Stock it is 45.5″ so nothing too long, but maybe just a touch longer than necessary. It comes with some nice standard features like the Dual Compound Callaway grip that just has a Chevron on it so it offers a really nice feel. It might not be the most forgiving driver, but it didn’t generate much side spin. I found the forgiveness to be in line with the FT-9. Initially in the Square setting, it was hitting a tad high so I changed the face angle to Open and dropped 2* of launch and was rewarded with an even better combo. Even misfits I was getting 250yard out if this club. It offered that coveted, high launch/low spin combo I was regularly hitting 3bills with this club. I dropped my Graphite Design DI into an addition tip, suddenly this club became a bomber, the “wow” factor was found. Mine came with the stock RIP’d NV shaft which was decent. The face is of moderate height and width, nothing extreme, just middle of the road. The Fit hosel is not bulky at all in the sleek all black design.
It also doesn’t have the cupped face seam right across the top of the head. Sans alignment aid it just looks perfect to my eye. I really love how it sets up behind the ball. Going back a few generations now, the FT and RAZR series have had a composite top allowing for weight to be relocated in the head for optimized launch and spin, this was later emphasized in their X Hot Driver model.Ĭompared to the FT-9, the Fit is a little more compact looking. What they didn’t change is the composite forged feel of the head.
