What we say...

The Callaway Fusion FT-i looks tidy sat behind the ball, with its square back pointing towards the perfect takeaway path.

Callaway has worked for years with carbon-body drivers: older models sounded dead and dull, but the company has now learned how to tune the heads so they sound powerful and pleasing, and the FT-i is no exception.

This isn’t quite the longest driver in this test, but with an average of 298 yards when hit by our pro it’s certainly no slouch. We sldo appreciate the RRP of £399 is a lot, but in the real world you’re more likely to find the FT-i at around £349 – and many players will feel it’s worth it to hit more fairways.

The Callaway Fusion FT-i Driver has a 460cc complete Inertial Design square head, with Opti-Fit weighting system.

  • 5 out of 5 What a shot saver!

    By billysandy

    Have had the driver for about 3 months, and have only been playing for a little longer than that. The beauty of this driver is that it's very suitable for a mid to high handicapper much like myself. Even when i am driving worse than usual, i can reduce my swing to half a backswing, and i only lose 30 yards out of the 240 i usually hit. This driver has been the gem of my bag and will be for the next few years. I highly recommend this club, and the only drawback is the price. 5*

    By Rhys Edwards

    When this first came out I thought it looked like a shovel. That was until I gave one a blast at my local range, completely cured my slice and added 30 yards to my drives compared to my old Titleist 983! The quoted price of £399 is rubbish too! I've seen them going for about £275 on the internet. If that still sounds a bit steep, have a look at some ex-demo's or second-handers in pro shops and big stores; I'm pretty sure you could find a used one in good condition for around £150 if you're lucky. The performance is just so much better than anything else on the market today, and it's well worth that extra bit of cash in my opinion. Get one!!!!!

    By kjaved

    Fantastic driver that does all the work: just take aim and shoot. It goes long and mostly down ther middle if you keep it smooth. Has reduced my score just need to work on the short irons now!

  • 5 out of 5 Hit 'em Straight

    By lwhooper

    Since using the FT-i for the past month I've rediced my average score from 98 to 90, all due to the distance and accuracy of the driver. That can't be bad. And you can get it for nearly half the price quoted.

    By jeff griffiths

    Square Pah! A gimmick I thought until I hit it, once - a fluke, twice -early days 6 rounds later I was a convert, you will be too. Oh yea and the sound is awesome

  • 5 out of 5 Perfection

    By philiplewis23

    I used to have the callaway fusion FT-3 that was a great driver. But i got this for half price in america at $500. It goes straight where ever you hit it. Best driver ever hit.

  • 5 out of 5 brilliant club

    By stephenharrop

    Does exactly what it says. Longer straighter drives even when you hit off centre. I've added a lot more consistency and loads of yards. Highly recomend you try one.

  • 5 out of 5 PLEASE try this club.

    By broomehead

    All I can say is try this club. You just smile every time you pull this Driver from the bag.

  • 5 out of 5 Better than I thought it would be!

    By steve pitch

    I thought 'square' was all going to be hype. But had to try one anyway. I hit about 30 balls with one that a pro picked out for me, and had to buy it there and then. I have a tendency to hit a slight slice and found myself hitting the fairway 75% of the time. You can still hit a bad shot with any club but this one really does help to keep it straight when you strike away from the center (as the tape showed I had). Expensive, but makes a great sound and will annoy my friends by keeping me out of the usual trouble on the right!

  • 5 out of 5 Strong performer

    By nettscore

    I have tried this club in a couple of configurations and it is simple the most forgiving driver i have ever hit. Even tried the 11 degree regular which i think is going to be a huge seller for people that struggle with a driver. The Speeder shaft is a good shaft and fit well with the head to give a balanced feel. I also new exactly where the clubhead was at all times. I went for 9degree stiff personally but there will be a configuration to suit all. I predict this will be the biggest selling club this year. You can now get this for 299. Grab a bargain and enjoy the short suff for a change!!!

  • 2 out of 5 What a waste of time!

    By Adam Hughes

    The FT-i i tried at a recent demo day was no different from any other r7,g5 or HiBore except its about £100 more expensive and looks like a lego brick!
