Best of Callaway WITB (from the past)


Recommended Posts

Driver: Callaway Razr Fit 8.5 Shaft PXi 6

Woods: Callaway Steelhead III 3+5 wood with original FCM RIfle 6.5 steel shafts

Utility: Callaway Utility Prototype 21 + 24 with PXi 6.0 steel shafts

Irons: Callaway ..R.. V-Grove X Prototype Irons with DGX 100 3 - PW

Wedges: Callaway CC Jaws 52 + 58 DGS 400

Putter: Ping Anser

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I needed the Utility Prototype´s to hit the ball higher with softer landing for long Par 3´s. Only the shafts are too light and have nothing to do with the original Rifle shafts which I like.

My 3 wood is only 42 inches long and the 5 wood 41.25 for distance control.

My Irons have classic lofts, the PW starts with 48 degree loft with 4 degree steps...

The only unusual part is that all my Clubs are around 58 degree Lie angle from Driver to

Wedges!

 

I like to play Persimmon Wood´s and own a lot of sets...

 

This is with my Hogan Persimmon Driver:

I would definitely agree with those irons! So sweet! But the best Callaway is my FT IZ! Haha, sweet bag!

Recently I updated my Driver and Fairway Wood´s...

3 and 5 Wood out - 4 Wood Callaway XHot 17 degree loft in...

8.5 Cally Razr Fit out - 9.5 lofted up to 11 RBZ2 in...

Love the 4-Wood, same distance then my old 3-Wood but with a
higher trajectory and softer landing.

The RBZ2 is not longer, but with 11 degree Loft more forgiving for me.
Thru the COG more forward and low spinning head, I can hit the stock S shaft
quite well - no need for a low spinning shaft.

Not dime size like Tiger´s - but not bad at all.

Irons are pure

The Prototypes quad dot with conforming groves will maybe never leave my bag - I already bought a spare 9 Iron...

My 2016 WITB....

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Love my Diamana Blueboards in my wood's...

 

The Apex UT'S are a great improvement over the X Utility Prototype's...

 

My 48, 52 and 58 wedges are just awesome...

 

The Anser 2 TR replaced my Anser...

 

Just more enjoyment with these sticks!!!

 

Thank you for watching my WITB

There is a side story to the Diamana Blueboard shaft...

 

I was fitted for it outdoors in Februar 2012! And after 4 years I realized that it is the best shaft for me!

 

Video from 2012:

ha ha, lol - and incredibly carry my Driver now 6 yards farther...

 

I owned in 2015 for 3 days as well a R15 Driver head and a AeroBurner 3 wood with Diamana Blueboard S+ shaft = fail

 

The Driver had no feedback and the Diamana Blueboard S+ shaft has nothing to do with the original Diamana Blueboard S!

The Diamana S+ must have at least 1.5 degree more torque than the original Blueboard.

2017 WITB:

 

For motivational purpose I replaced for 2017 my Driver, 3 Wood and 5 Wood...

 

Driver> TaylorMade M2 9.5 head = first I played it with a 45.5 Diamana blueboard 83 X flex, but the club head felt too light... changed the screw to 8 gram,

now it launched higher and I had to lower the loft to 8.75 and 2 open. Felt better and sounded better! Then I tried a Diamana blueboard 73 X in 48

had to counterweight the butt with 32 gram and I love it.

 

3 Wood> Callaway XR16 3+ = I would say it is the unofficial pro version... 165cc Clubhead, 14 degree loft, 56 degree lie angle

I play it with a 43.5 Diamana blueboard 83 X. More forgiving than my Xhot2 pro 13.5!

 

2 Hybrid> First hybrid I own after 20 years! Callaway Apex 18 degree > I love the Clubhead, but I will change the shaft for a Diamana blueboard 103 X

and shim it from 0.335 to 0.370.

 

 

 

 

 

With my Apex Utility 3 and 4 I changed the weight screws from 6 to 9.5 gram.

 

For my Irons I changed the grips to Golfpride Z Cord midsize... Love them, because they are more between regular and midsize.
