The longer shaft tends to reduce the accuracy of the club. The Callaway XR Driver also comes with the Project X LZ shaft, which produces maximum shaft load during the downswing that helps to create greater energy transfer to the ball. With OptiFit Adjustability, the hosel of the club now has an adjustable dial that can be configured to 8 different loft and lie configurations (+2 degree/-1 degree) to allow players to find the perfect launch for their ball flight.
This R-Moto Face Technology not only allows Callaway to move the center of gravity 17% lower in the club, which creates a higher moment of inertia (MOI), but also allows for increased ball speeds. By reducing 10% of the face weight and making it much thinner, the R-Moto Face Technology allows more energy to efficiently transfer across the entire club face. With an aerodynamic clubhead shape and Speed Step Crown, the Callaway XR Driver is designed to increase clubhead speed by reducing the drag of the club during the downswing. By combining the latest in aerodynamics, Speed Step Crown, R-Moto Face Technology, Maximum Shaft Load, and OptiFit Adjustability the Callaway XR Driver incorporates the very best in technology and design. The Callaway XR Driver is a phenomenal club that is lightweight, forgiving, and designed to provide a high amount of ball speed, making it the perfect combination for players. The Callaway XR Driver is also paired with a very lightweight vision of the Project X LZ shaft that comes in three flexes, Light, Regular, and Stiff.Ĭallaway XR Driver Detailed Review Design and Technology
The Callaway XR Driver comes in a variety of lofts, including the 9.5 degree, 10.5 degree, 12 degree, and 13.5 degree. When players find their correct launch configuration, they create more speed and distance on drives. With OptiFit Adjustability, player can now choose from 8 different loft and lie configurations to find the perfect launch angle for their ball. Ball speeds are also maximized through the R-Moto Face Technology that helps to transfer the energy of the club across the entire club face. The Callaway XR Driver has a Speed Step Crown that helps to reduce the drag during the downswing, which in turn increases the club head speed. The Callaway XR Driver is a great mid-level priced club that is perfect for the high to mid handicap player looking to swing faster, generate more ball speed, and hit longer drives. There is no doubt about the XR driver has beaten all expectations, as evidence by receiving the highest rating of Gold in the 2015 Golf Digest Hot list. Combining cutting-edge technology, aerodynamic head, thinner face, and maximizing the shaft load, Callaway has delivered a club that will give forgiveness and distance to golfers for years to come. Collaborating with Boeing, Callaway has designed one of the most aerodynamic head shapes on the market today.
This accelerates speeds at impact to give you longer, straighter tee shots.Callaway’s XR driver is truly where forgiveness meets fast. The Streamlined Surface Technology is designed to provide 17% drag reduction compared to the Diablo Octane driver. The driver also features Speed Frame Face Technology that expands the sweet spot and produces faster ball speeds for greater distance. The RAZR X Black Driver from Callaway is constructed from Forged Composite material, which is lighter and stronger than titanium for precise thickness control and an optimized CG.
