Golf Review: Callaway FT-5 Driver- 6/24/07

Comments: This driver is supposed to be a ‘non-square’ equivalent of their new high MOI club, the Callaway FT-i with a bit more workability as the FT-i.


Pros: Nice look and doesn’t stray too much from the appearance of the FT-3 and targeted to the lower handicapped player looking for forgiveness on off-center hits.


Cons: Ballooning hits, the version I tried had the draw bias to it and the balls definitely went left…. far out left with low trajectory for me on a 10.5 degree club. Also had a slightly less aluminum bat sound to it than the Callaway FT-I, but still a wooden bat sound to it once hit. Not too pleasant.


Overall: For the price I would have thought this club to be more forgiving for what it is. Not as long or forgiving as the Sumo, Burner or HiBore XL drivers. Somewhat situated in the over hyped category as the Taylor Made Superquad and Nike Sumo2.


Score: 2.5 out of 5
