Good Assistant Callaway FT-iZ Driver

Dec. 7, 2010 - PRLog -- A golfer would be foolish though to reject every new golf club that comes along, and definitely shouldn’t pass up the possibility of carrying the ball an extra couple of yards just for the sake of being a traditionalist – as if hitting a TaylorMade R9, Nike SQ DYMO, Callaway FT-i or Big Bertha, for instance, makes you a traditionalist. The question remains though: is the new flagship of Callaway’s range of drivers, the FT-iZ Driver, worth your attention? Does it offer more than a quick, but well disguised, restyling job? Should even staunch traditionalists shelve their aversion to innovation and check it out?

It’s perhaps a little early to tell, and you certainly won’t find me making any claims based on a session at an indoor range. But if you believe what Callaway Company is saying, for example 'the FT-iZ is longer and straighter than any driver we’ve ever made’, it definitely sounds like you should be heading to your pro shop for a test drive at least.

My only reservation when I first clapped eyes on the Callaway FT-iZ was the shape of the head – the now seemingly standard ‘progressive’ shape that features a wide face tapering towards a point at the back, making it look almost triangular. With the fairly low-profile face and this tapered design, the FT-iZ creates 11% less drag than the FT-iQ (mind you, a London bus probably cuts through the air more efficiently than the FT-iQ) - another aid to greater distance.

For now, however, it’s not for me. I’m having a hard time adjusting to this new shape, and still drive it best with rounder, pear-shaped models. When you’re concerned with the look of the golf club, it seems inevitable your muscles tense up just enough to affect your tempo, resulting in a loss of consistency. Don’t bank on the same increase in distance you got when you swapped your last persimmon driver years ago, but if you’ve adapted to the progressive head shape better than I have, and are in the market for a couple of extra yards (and maybe one more fairway) then the Callaway FT-iZ Driver is sure to impress you.
