CALLAWAY X HOT AND X HOT PRO

What Callaway says:

Callaway Golf’s new X Hot drivers are configured for blistering ball speed and distance gains. Already adopted by some of the longest-hitting players on the worldwide tours, the new line of X Hot drivers is a result of Callaway R&D designing clubs for the best players in the world and using optimised design progression and adjustability to make them accessible and high-performing for all players.

Distance gains of 12 metres with the X Hot driver have been achieved with a host of design and engineering advancements that make these drivers fast, hot and more lightweight than their predecessors. Callaway employed its powerfully fast Speed Frame Face Technology that increases ball speed, saves weight and optimises stiffness and stress distribution across the clubface for more efficient energy transfer. The new face technology promotes more – and more consistent – distance, even on off-centre impacts. The OptiFit Hosel, which adjusts the face angle in open, square or closed positions to improve accuracy and trajectory, allows golfers to dial in their preferred look at address.

Who plays it: Branden Grace (pictured), David Horsey, Alexander Noren.
