TECH TALK A heat-treating process allows Callaway to make the RAZR X’s face 18 per cent thinner than the face of the Diablo Edge. This improves ball speed and allows weight to be redistributed to the perimeter of the sole for better stability on off-centre hits. The face design of the standard model helps average golfers get thin shots up in the air more easily.
PLAYER COMMENTS
L “The Tour model has a nice compact head and no variation in feel: Even my poor strikes felt great.”
M “This thing is more forgiving than your grandmother.” … “I hit it all over the face and didn’t notice any substantial difference in distance or ball flight.”
HOT We are pleased to see a truly inventive hybrid shape. The heavily bevelled back sole on the Tour model makes it easy to move the club through
thick rough.
NOT Callaway flattened the lie angles based on “tour-player feedback”. Unfortunately, we’re not tour players.
