Callaway X2 Hot Driver

After last years X-hot driver being the most successful driver in the Callaway line up, I was a little unsure of what they were going to produce or change to add to the already great performance of the X-Hot. However the X-Hot wasn’t without fault. The main issues I had with the X-Hot were it wasn’t that appealing to look at, the 460cc head and grey crown could be excused for looking a little dull in comparison to the other flashy looking drivers it was competing against. The Callaway X-Hot performed well against the other drivers for 2013 and certainly within our shop was by far the most popular selling driver of 2013. So how does the new kid on the block compare?

  1. How to Adjust Callaway XR Driver. In the hosel, the ‘S’ indicates that the stated loft is set on the natural setting. The ‘-1’ will subtract one degree from the stated loft. In the same manner, ‘+2’ and ‘+3’ will add 2 and 3 degrees to the stated loft. In the cog, the draw setting will be designated as ‘D’.
  2. Callaway manufactures a large assortment of golf club heads that can be purchased as a complete set or as individuals, depending on your specific needs. You can choose between drivers, fairway woods, hybrids, irons, putters, sets, and wedges, and as you shop, be sure to take your lead hand into account since golf clubs are specifically tailored.
  3. The Callaway X2 Hot driver is designed to be even longer and more forgiving off the tee than its X Hot predecessor. Thanks to the new head shape and construction, the sweet spot is located where you’re more likely to hit it while ball speed and distance are maintained if you don’t. This 460 cc driver has a larger titanium face than the X.

The new Callaway X2 Hot Driver model still comes with a 460cc head and yes it’s still grey but its side burns have been increased in thickness in the form of some sleek looking graphics on the perimeter of the crown and the head shape has been changed very slightly to the more traditional pear shape again adding to the better aesthetics that I think the X-Hot didn’t have. The Callaway X2 Hot driver has had a little face lift and the new hyper speed face has been made a little (4%) bigger giving you an extra 1.5MPH. This combined with the 10% bigger sweet spot means the guys who miss the centre more than they hit it have a fighting chance of retaining some distance with off centre hits.

Apart from the slightly larger hitting area, the Callaway X2 Hot driver has the new OptiFit hosel that allows the golfer to adjust the loft from -1 degree to + 2 degrees and it also gives the golfer the ability to change the lie from either Standard or Draw setting. The driver will be available in 3 loft options 9, 10.5 and 13.5 and from there the golfer can adjust if required via the hosel setting. With the type of golfer this driver is punted at there is the standard draw bias in the head which as you increase the loft, the bias will also increase, the draw bias is not as much as last years X-Hot but remember you can change the setting to draw on the Opti-Fit hosel giving you more draw bias if needed.

For the shaft geeks the Callaway X2 Hot driver comes with the Aldila Tour blue 55 in all three flexes (light, reg & Stiff). The regular tour blue weighs 58 grams in reg & stiff and is a mid torque and has a mid-low kick point. The tour blue has a slightly softer tip than the Tour Green and is for the player who needs a little bit of a higher launch but still wants to moderate their spin. Whereas the Aldila Tour Green weights 67 grams in stiff, a stiffer tip, lower torque and has a mid-high kick point which would suit the golfer who hits it hard or someone who needs to knock down the spin a little more and would suit the X2 Hot Pro customer for sure. There are obviously the custom options to pick from too which I am still waiting on but I’m sure it will be the usual suspects on offer.

The Callaway X2 Hot pro version I have not yet tried but when I do I will write a full review on its own. The basics of the big brother of the Callaway X2 Hot driver is that the X2 Hot Pro head size will be the slightly smaller 440CC head with a neutral bias in the head and will be a lower spinning driver, offering the player market a lower, more workable & penetrating ball flight that many require.

After hitting the Callaway X2 Hot driver I was mightily impressed. Although the shaft I was using during testing was not suited to me, the dispersion was still good and there was certainly no great loss in ball speed with off centre hits. This driver will not make the X-Hot owners feel inferior and wishing they had held on 6 months because what they have is still really a good product and it is not far behind on performance. However, the Callaway X2 Hot is better: it’s better looking, better feeling, better ball speeds (just) and is more forgiving so my advice is to seriously consider this driver and test it out for yourselves. I think you will really enjoy and be impressed with the Callaway X2-Hot driver for 2014.

The Callaway X Hot driver lived up to its name with higher ball speeds for all golfers. How exactly did they do it? Element manager download. Well, Callaway combined two of their best technologies: a Speed Frame Face and the innovative Forged Cup Face design. These features save weight, optimize stress distribution across the face. These features help produce more energy transfer to the ball, higher ball speeds across the entire face, and more consistent distance.

The X Hot also uses Callaway’s Opti-Fit Hosel System. This allows for an easy of interchanging shafts from head to head throughout the Callaway lineup if necessary (RAZR Fit, X Hot Pro, and RAZR Fit Xtreme) rather than requiring a unique shaft adapter. The Opti-Fit adapter allows for three different face settings, square, open, and close. When the driver is in the square (S) position it has a square face angle, an open (O) position will open the face angle 2.5 degrees while the effective loft will decrease 1 degree. Finally, with the club in a closed (C) position the face will close 1.5 degrees while the effective loft will increase 1 degree. Confusing? Essentially, a 9.5° driver set in the (C) closed position have a loft of 10.5° and if it’s set in the (O) open position it will have a loft of 8.5.

This driver was one of the best in 2013 creating a buzz around distance and forgiveness for all golfers, even on mis-hits.

Callaway took everything about XHot and made it better in the X2 Hot driver. They took the Speed Frame Face and made it into a Hyper Speed Face for even faster ball speeds. This innovation increased the sweet spot by 10% which gives you more ball speed across the entire face, especially on those off-center hits. The average golfer misses the center of the face 65% of the time, so you need all the help you can get. One of the biggest implementations is the addition of the Advanced Adjustable Hosel seen in the OptiForce line from 2013. This hosel feature takes shot shaping to another level. The X2Hot also features the new Aldila Tour Blue shaft as a stock option. This shaft is typically associated with an upcharge, but Callaway is offering it as their go-to shaft with this driver.This shaft delivers excellent feel and control and is a perfect complement to optimize launch conditions.

After testing both of these clubs out on the course, I can say that they are both hot drivers worthy of purchase. Their ease of use is outstanding, while shots off the toe and heel have more punch than other drivers on the market. The additions of a Pro model for both lines make these clubs’ success the ability to put it play no matter what your handicap; a 30 handicap all the way down to scratch and pro players alike.

It’s easy to see why Callaway is successful in the driver category. Their continued improvement in technology is making other manufacturers take notice. Not to mention their clubs look good, a traditional, deep face design that appeals to many golfers.

And the Winner Is…

The X2 Hot.

Are you looking for more adjust-ability and shot shaping? Do you struggle with too much fade or draw?

  • I would recommend checking out the X2 Hot due to its advanced hosel settings. This is the best reason for the X Hot owner to pick up the X2 Hot, it will help you influence shot-shape trajectory as where the XHot could only influence height.
