yeah there is no technology at play here. I mean I can tell just by looking at these somewhat limited pics in which i see mostly grass. No new tech, I will stick with ______ (insert Other OEM here)
[/quote]

So just because you can't "see" something means it doesn't exist? Or because you can't see tech based on pictures? Based on a lot of the comments I've read on here from guys who are pretty "in the know" there is certainly some technology involved here, it may not be as flashy as some other OEMs. Personally, I'd much rather have a club that has new tech involved that I can't see as it would provide an element of a cleaner look.

I think that one might have gone whizzing over your head.

This was such obvious sarcasm by Kymar.

Got it. The three posts following mine all pointed this out. My bad fellas. Maybe the gun to the dome should've been my first guess.

The 3 wood looks the best.

[jonn443]

the new xhot line of irons look very similiar to the x-22s and x-22 pros, no?

LOL no worries hayzooos, your reaction to my post was the same as my reaction to the post that inspired my sarcasm. I take Harry and Chad at their word that this is game changing stuff. If this turns out to be a rebadged Diablo Ft Razr Bertha (or whatever) then we can crush them for it. But, I am confident these are gonna be great and can't wait to hear about the tech, and hit the damn things! I can honestly say i haven't been this excited by a Callaway club or line of clubs ever. So I guess at least part one of their goal is Mission accomplished. Hopefully for them in just a few short years they will have their own coalition of hate screaming "it's all marketing!" while they sell and sell and sell. Competition is good. Especially for the Ho's.

[spurcell42]

Those fairway woods are sweeeeeeeeeeeeet.

[Yosef]

Fairway looks awesome, can't wait to try it out!

[Michael79]

any possible price mentioning on these??

[My2Dogs]

Ok so has anyone deciphered the code and found the release date?

Also anyone know the price point?

Cannot wait for these to come out!

[/quote]nope and I had x22's

[KYMAR]

I agree. i see very little resemblance to the 22's in these irons at all. The X badge, and that's about it.

[jonn443]

must be thinking of a different line... my bad

It's 1-25-2013 (the numbers are in his post)

[Konklifer]

I'm not a Cally guy but if I was...

[tickyboy]

Wonder when Callaway will offer good stock shafts, not those junk made for noodles. Like the looks of the fairway for sure... need a Callaway match for my ft tour...

The 2013 shafts aren't "made for". They are the real deal, just as in the Razr FIT Extreme thread and I'm the promotional videos of the Extreme. Callaway is definitely on the UP with the real legit shafts.

[boxerjoe2011]

gosh, can we get some address positions? All those photos and not one at address.

Let's just say they are in line with other price points. RFE is higher than XHot. And the numbers are familiar.

I hope they do!

[SENS75]

Nice looking, but what are these supposed to compete with? If it's a workable iron with some forgiveness (like AP2's or mp59's) they'll have their work cut out. That's tough competition.

Both of the above irons are forged, i think these would fall more in line with Ping i and g series or Cleveland CG and CG tours.

[JOHN GOLIA]

The Rep stopped by work today. Saw the X Hot Pro fairway and Iron.
X-Hot Driver, Fairway and iron. Utility Prototype iron. And the new putters.
Being it was busy at work I only got to look at them for a moment.
He begged me to hit the X-Hot Fairway. Dang!!!!
I like the matted gray finish. The X -Pro iron looked pretty good too.
The Utility Prototype iron looks AWESOME!!!!!
I did put my order in for a 13.5 X-Hot Fairway.
Ship dates are first week in Jan.
AND...... after he left the Adams Rep shows up with the new clubs.
Even with the graphics they looked good.

Thanks Smackygolf and Zunes. So the 3 wood should be around $250 or so, not bad with a real deal shaft. Cannot wait. I wish it was closer to the first week of Jan but better than the other OEM's release dates. Glad Cally is beating them to the punch, especially when the sticks prove how good they are. The other OEM's will have a lot of catching up to do.

[Crabbie60]

These look great. Is Callaway coming out with a Tour Players blade/cavity back as well?

[Edgewood]

I cant tell if the woods of driver has an alighment aid (arrow, half circle, etc...) any help?

[randywildman]

Like the look of the irons.
