First I’ll identify what these factors are, and then I’ll tell you whether or not they perform as advertised.įorged Composite- Revolutionary material in the crown that’s lighter and stronger than titanium. There are a lot of factors that come together to deliver the performance Callaway is shooting for with this driver. I feel that the RAZR X Black driver brings the looks, feel and sound that I look for in a driver together very nicely. I’ll get into the specifics of this face later but basically what they’ve done is expanded the sweet spot to increase ball speeds across the titanium face. In my testing I hit shots all over the face of this driver and you can certainly feel when you aren’t hitting the sweet spot but with the Speed Frame Face Technology in this driver it wasn’t real often that I didn’t hit that sweet spot unless I was doing it intentionally. To say it feels very solid is probably the best way for me to describe it. Not harsh and annoying yet not overly soft either. The sound of the driver goes hand in hand with its feel. I find myself completely addicted to the sound of a well struck drive with the RAZR X Black driver. If you’ve hit a Forged Composite driver from Callaway you can likely understand the sound I’m trying to describe. Not overly muted, yet not loud and tingy by any means either.
#2012 CALLAWAY RAZR X BLACK DRIVER REVIEW DRIVERS#
The only other place you’ll hear anything similar is from the other Forged Composite drivers from Callaway. Sound wise this driver is unique from most every other driver on the market. The red (fading to black) Motore F8 shaft completes what is definitely one of the better looking drivers you’ll see in 2012 in my opinion. I love the lines both around the face of the driver all the way through the entire club head. While the Streamlined Surface Technology serves more of a purpose than just the looks it really helped achieve a very nice shape for the driver. The black PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) Finish visible on the sole of the driver is equally cool to look at, this with a Callaway badge makes up the sole and really just completes a super unique look. I love the Forged Composite visible on the crown along with just a subtle red graphic that does not distract you at all, in fact I think it ties together a great look on the crown of the RAZR X Black. Callaway uses the word ‘mean’ to describe the look and while I agree with them I think I’d use the word “awesome” myself. Designed for golfers who want the ultimate in speed and accuracy off the tee, the RAZR X Black driver also incorporates a Black PVD Finish for a look that’s just flat-out, head turning cool. The new driver features Forged Composite material in the crown and Distance Trajectory Weighting that promotes premium conditions for maximum distance in a high launch, low spinning ball flight. With the RAZR X Black Driver, Callaway has crafted a club that looks just as mean as it behaves.
#2012 CALLAWAY RAZR X BLACK DRIVER REVIEW FULL#
THP received this driver well ahead of the release date to put it through the paces with a full review. One of the new models in 2012 is the RAZR X Black driver. Still using the forged composite material that is lighter and stronger than titanium Callaway took what they learned from last year’s RAZR Hawk and Diablo Octane drivers and improved the design. They didn’t set out to reinvent the technology in 2012 because they didn’t need to. In 2011 we witnessed Callaway completely change the game with the introduction of their forged composite drivers. You can’t talk golf equipment and drivers in general without Callaway Golf being one of the first couple of company names to roll off your tongue. The drivers that we’ve been able to discuss and test here in the past 18 months or so have been so good that it seems nearly impossible to settle on just one for your game. Equipment junkies like me and thousands of other THP members have been spoiled a bit lately. Of all that equipment nothing attracts varying opinions and debate more than the driver. Stop by the forum any given day and you’ll see countless conversations going on revolving around the equipment we use to play the game that we all love with a passion. We love talking golf equipment here at The Hackers Paradise.
