Callaway FT-5 Driver Review
posted in Club Reviews |
The new 460cc FT-5 Driver is the latest driver utilizing Callaway’s Fusion Technology. The larger, more robust Titanium cup face is designed to the legal limit, as defined by the USGA Characteristic Time test, resulting in increased ball speed, distance and forgiveness — even on miss-hits. This club is in the same family as the FT-i driver but it does not have the non-traditional square club head.
Callaway’s Proprietary Fusion Technology creates an unprecedented 50 grams of discretionary weight which is strategically positioned for a high Moment of Inertia and precise lateral location of the center of gravity. This provides exceptional stability on off-center hits, while enabling ball flight customization for optimal individual performance. The 25-gram weight located at the rear of the driver lowers the CG for optimal trajectory.
Some players complain about the loud noise created when hitting the ball with this club but I think this is a minor point of contention that most players can deal with especially for the performance benefits this club gives you. The only other negative we can think of is the price - $430 retail. This price may be steep for the weekend golfer, but for more serious golfers, you get what you pay for. If you are interested in buying this club, you can get it here from Golf Galaxy.
