First driver I bought: Callaway FT-i Tour Driver. My review.

Hello All,

Thanks for checking my site out today. I would like to share my experiences with my Callaway FTi driver. This was one of the very first drivers I bought when I was first getting into the golf hobby. Since then, I have bought dozens of clubs and have gotten much much better.

What got me to buy this driver was its funny shape. It was also fairly cheap at the time so I said what the heck I might as well buy it. I actually liked this club a lot even though it looks ridiculous. I don’t know the scientific stuff behind the design but all I know is that for $200, my Callaway FT-I Tour driver really held its own even with the more expensive drivers I bought later on.

  • Large Titanium Cup Face increases driving distance, control, and ball speed.
  • Weight positioned towards the hitting corner of the club creating a high moment of inertia.
  • Slightly angled club face.
  • Carbon composite body – lighter than titanium.

Check out this club on Amazon. I believe it is on sale now for $195.

All in all, I was completely pleased with with Callaway FT-I Tour Driver. I used it for a number of years and I think that it stands pretty well amongst the more expensive drivers out there. Out of all the reviews I have made on my clubs, this one definitely wins the highest value award. While I don’t use this driver anymore, I would definitely have no problem using it again if my main drivers ever break.

Callaway X-18 Iron Set User Reviews. Is the x18 series the one to get?

April 19th, 2009 Callaway 0 Comment

I had my eye on Callaway’s x-18 irons for some time before I added them to my collection. In my opinion, the Callaway x18 series is the best value you can get in an iron set.

callaway x18 iron setThe X-series Irons by Callaway Golf have been favored by pros worldwide because of the technology behind each iron. Many of the best players in the world favor these clubs because of the performance enhancing design of each club.

Coupled with great looks and an extremely forgiving iron, these clubs are favored by many recreational players as well.

The new X-18 and x18 Pro series irons combine the same patented technologies used in prior x series Callaway Irons models. This model sports a new head shape and size, but includes all the advancements of the older models.

This model comes in 3 different versions:

Callaway X-18 Iron Set w/ uniflex steel
Callaway X-18 Irons 3-PW w/ graphite
Callaway X-18 3-PW PRO SERIES STEEL

My overall review: Are they worth the money?

Out of my literally hundred or so clubs I own, the callaway x18 with uniflex steel putting wedge is one of the few clubs that has remained in my play set over the past couple years. This club is dead on everytime (partly due to my accuracy). I like this iron so much that it has sort of developed a personality in my head. You know what I mean – that club that feels like a mere extension to your arm after using it so long.

Best place to buy it

I suggest you buy your callaway clubs from Amazon. Yes, you can probably find a used club for cheaper online somewhere, but you have no idea what you are getting. I usually buy all my sets new from amazon for this reason.
