subject: Catch Up With Callaway By Giving Callaway X Hot Irons A Try [print this page]
Along with the new year, we welcome the Callaway X Hot Irons, which are supposed to deliver increased distance and performance for both amateur and professional golfers. Callaway's award-winning Research and Development team has incorporated a Deep Undercut Cavity Design and Speed Frame Face Technology into the irons, resulting in improved distance, feel and ball speed.
Speaking of Callaway Hot Irons, the Callaway X-24 hot irons occured to my mind. Powered by a consistently hot face that generates peak ball speeds for maximum distance with pinpoint accuracy, they work very well for me. When I hit the sweet spot they do exactly what you want them to do. Shaping shots is a newfound pleasure, and on mis-hits they are still very forgiving and well within a reasonable result.
"The X Hot Irons have been meticulously engineered - both in terms of physical characteristics and club configuration - to increase ball speed and promote overall distance optimisation," said Dr. Alan Hocknell, SVP, Research and Development, Callaway Golf. The speed frame technology is also making its debut in the Callaway X Hot irons. This technology creates more efficient energy transfer by optimising face stiffness, which helps facilitate increased ball speed and consistent distance, even if the ball isn't struck out of the club's sweet spot.
The undercut design has allowed engineers to precisely position the centre of gravity, moving the hottest part of the face lower down to the area where most golfers connect with the ball. Among the two latest hot irons TaylorMade RBZ Irons and Callaway X Hot Irons, which one will outweigh? I am expecting the result. Available to golfers on January 25, 2013, the X Hot and X Hot Pro Irons have distinctly different technologies that fuel distance and complete performance for both amateur and professional golfers.
These long, high-performing Callaway X Hot Irons apply a thin Speed Frame Face for significantly higher CT and faster ball speeds. They also introduce a modern Warbird sole plate relieved in the heel and toe for enhanced versatility from a variety of lies. The club shape allows for the distance and forgiveness of a fairway wood with the accuracy and control of an iron, providing a fast and long complement to the X Hot Irons and a great replacement for long irons.
