Shame on them for making clubs that will appeal to the largest audience.
I guarantee you that the lie angles will be flatter and the face angles will be more open on the Pro model which does not offer high loft versions.
The OEMs think that everybody who plays high loft fairway woods needs upright lie angles and closed faces because they're all slicers. A pox on their houses. I'm really beginning to hate them. Slower swing speed players who don't cast over the top have to find fully customized equipment to be fit properly.
Shame on them for not making clubs for skilled seniors and women who don't slice.
Or maybe they realize that the segment who needs these are so small that it isn't profitable to make them. Casting molds for heads is extremely expensive, they cannot hit every segment. As a lefty I understand and respect that
I play a pretty heavy draw and haven't had any issues gaming a Callaway wood for the last few years.
in fact, there are a bunch of offerings this year that sit neutral and open from Callaway.
That's certainly true. Just not in high loft fairway woods (over 18º).
You're a thoughtful human being. As a senior who doesn't slice, I don't respect them at all. The term "grumpy old man" was coined for a reason!
My Titleist PTs are also still in my bag for a reason. No closed faces. No upright lies. There's nothing modern that works as well for me.
That would be good, then, C.
I'm just saying, they make the "pro" version of a line without the slice compensation and can't throw in one extra wood loftier than 18º. Would it kill them? I'll bet that their Champions Tour and LPGA endorsees get that stuff and we never see it. If you can make it, offer it and charge extra for the low profitability.
First thing I noticed was the ridges. Was about to reread the initial post to make sure I didn't miss the thinking behind the design but it appears you answered my question!Seems like the goal of the outer portions having better ridging is designed for a more versatile head in terms of turf interaction.
Centered on the sole presents itself a lot more along the lines of the R Moto tech, where they use internal ribs to strengthen the stiffness in certain areas without the added bloat of full material use. Whether it acts as a gliding tool along the turf is I suppose something of an added bonus.

In stores 1/29
Any idea if they will be taking pre-orders? Doesn't seem to be available on the website.
Im sure there has been, but not really by me. Just different FW woods to me in the idea that they look feel and sound different.
I think that will be a comparison many do with this one though, as its a natural draw of clubs.
JB,
I've been using the standard x2hot 4W since it came out and love it. Is there much difference between that offering and this one, or it is too close to call?

Can't speak for this one, but to me the jump from the X2Hot to the XR was pretty big in terms of distance and forgiveness, especially off the deck.
