Callaway Hyper X driver

[MikeH]

Afternoon all

We have just uploaded the video review for Callaway's new Hyper X driver. It won't be in store till early 2008 but it seems like it could be a very hot product when it lands. The GM testers certainly liked it on first hit

Thanks Mike, I'll check that out when I get home.

I read an American report on this driver a wee while ago. The reviewer said the club was so long it represented another significant step up in driver technology.

Is it as good as that?

I enjoyed the video, as I always do. Sounds fantastic! such an improvemenent on the FT-3 I have and some of the others I've heard in action.
A beast! and a welcome return to form for my favourite "wood" company.
Can't wait......

Good footage. Club sounds great. I have the ft-i, it does sound a bit dead, even when you nail it. Goes straight though, which means I would use it even if it made a farting noise at impact.

I was pleasantly surprised at the recommended price of the Hyper X, £219!! Right in at the thick of things competing with TM, Ping, Cobra et al!

Yeh, like I said, sounds rubbish, goes miles!

Looks interesting. No doubt I will have a bash when it comes out. Though if i change the FT-i so soon I will get shot by her indoors!
