Video Review: Callaway X Hot Driver

In this video TG Equipment Editor Joel Tadman reviews X Hot while on our 2013 drivers test.

The testers returned mixed reviews on the matt grey finish. Joel enjoyed both the compact look of the Tour version and the feeling of compression he was getting at impact while Kit was really impressed with the penetrating flight outdoors; his dispersion was also just four yards.

Chris and Graeme struggled to get the distance other drivers were achieving while a feeling of toe up combined with the draw bias didn’t add confidence.

Pros: A retro look will stir memories; the draw bias makes this the adjustable driver for all abilities.
Cons: Distance was down compared with the Razr Fit Xtreme while a lack of forgiveness for some meant a wider dispersion.
