It seems like every second email these days has to do with a review of the new Callaway Big Bertha Fusion FT-3 driver. And why not? The FT-3 has won two Majors on the PGA this year and has been one of the most talked about drivers of the summer.
Driver Reviews
TaylorMade R7 Quad Driver Review
It has been a while since a club has got as much hype as this one. The TaylorMade R7 Quad takes customization to an entirely different level by allowing the player to change the weight distribution in the clubhead.
Ping Rapture Driver Review
The Ping Rapture driver is probably the most technologically advanced driver that the company has ever produced. Ping has pulled out all the stops here… a composite/titanium head, a “Web Crown” design, robotic plasma welds… all in an effort to make the best driver on the market.

Adams Ovation Driver Review
Adams is a company who pride themselves on their technical approach to golf club design. Their Tight Lies fairway wood was one of the single best selling golf clubs in history and they continue to push forward with new developments.
Cleveland Launcher 460 Comp Driver Review
The “comp” craze in golf has really hit a fever pitch. Comp this, comp that… when will it end? More and more companies have been adding a comp driver to their line up and the Launcher 460 Comp is Cleveland’s entry into the comp frenzy. Before we get to the Launcher… let’s take a moment and review what exactly this whole comp thing is all about.
Callaway RAZR Hawk Driver Review
The Club:
Today I tested out a Callaway RAZR Hawk Tour Driver 9.5 degrees with a stiff RIP Alpha shaft (60 grams). I should mention, I currently play a Callaway FT-3, that I can’t seem to get rid of (and for good reason). Yes, I know it has an odd sound – but it’s one of the most consistent and reliable clubs I have in my bag. If you didn’t know already, the Callaway RAZR Hawk features a forged composite technology that Callaway custom-built with Lamborghini. This new material allowed Callaway to move around weight to produce what they say is a club that’s uncompromising in every way… (until next year’s model I suppose). A little about me, I’m 5 foot 10, swing around 105MPH with a very smooth transition and tempo. I play a consistent 5-10 yard draw, my miss, is getting quick and snapping it.
Cleveland Launcher XL 270 Draw Quick Review
Hey everyone, thanks for stopping by. Although we’re still trying to get rid of our snow here in Canada, I was itching to get my swing on this weekend, so I hit up our local Golf Town to test out some clubs. Yes, I was hitting into a screen, but what can you do! High on my list of clubs to test was the Cleveland XL 270, and after testing it out today, I was pretty impressed. Here are my thoughts:
The Club:
This was my first experience with the Miyazaki stiff shaft – this custom-built C. Kua shaft for this Cleveland series is only 39g, with a flex code 6424. At only 270 grams, this club is extremely light, and it feels great in the hands even before swinging. I was hitting the 10.5 degree draw model, which sat noticeable closed at address.
Titleist 983K And 983E Driver Review
The majority of drivers on the market today are designed for the mid to high handicap that needs forgiveness and help keeping the ball straight. Companies make their drivers really big to help with forgiveness and design them to come through the impact zone closed to prevent slices.
Callaway Big Bertha Fusion FT-5 Driver Review
The Callaway Fusion FT-5 has really flown under the radar so far. The compliment to the FT-i has been overshadowed by it’s square cousin but customers and readers are starting to realize that it’s the better of the two clubs. Callaway has taken their popular Fusion FT-3 and made it even better.
