Callaway 2013 Razr Fit “Xtreme” driver
Here’s our first look at the new 2013 Callaway RAZR Fit driver called the “Xtreme.” This version was recently approved by the USGA. It features two large weight ports in the rear portion of the sole (one in the toe, one in the heel) and an adjustable hosel that will allow golfers to easily change their shafts and trajectory.

Rickie Fowler’s new putter: Standard-length Odyssey Jailbird 380 in custom orange
Editor’s note: This is an excerpt from a piece our Andrew Tursky originally wrote for PGATour.com’s Equipment Report. Head over there for the full article.
…The Jailbird craze hasn’t really slowed down in 2024, either. According to Odyssey rep Joe Toulon, there are about 18-20 Jailbird putter users on the PGA TOUR.
Most recently, Akshay Bhatia won the 2024 Valero Texas Open using a broomstick-style Odyssey Jailbird 380 putter and Webb Simpson is switching into a replica of that putter at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship.
Now, Fowler, who essentially started the whole Jailbird craze, is making a significant change to his putter setup.
Fowler, who has had a couple weeks off since the 2024 RBC Heritage, started experimenting with a new, custom-orange Jailbird 380 head that’s equipped with a standard 35-inch putter build, rather than his previous 38-inch counter-balanced setup.
According to Fowler, while he still likes the look and forgiveness of his Jailbird putter head, he’s looking to re-incorporate more feel into his hands during the putting stroke.
He told GolfWRX.com on Tuesday at the Wells Fargo Championship that the 38-inch counterbalanced setup “served its purpose” by helping him to neutralize his hands during the stroke, but now it’s time to try the standard-length putter with a standard-size SuperStroke Pistol Tour grip to help with his feel and speed control.
Although Fowler was also spotted testing standard-length mallets from L.A.B. Golf and Axis1 on Tuesday, he confirmed that the custom Odyssey Jailbird 380 is the putter he’ll use this week at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship.

And this is on the internet… Callaway’s new CEO told him to use whatever you need that will let you win with… its an all black Rocketballz fairway 3 wood… taylormade made it just for him just for this event in china… He wanted a club to hit 300yds with since driver would put him in the rough, thick crap it is over there, so callaway, since they didn’t have their new fairway woods ready, told Phil to use whatever you feel will make you win.. taylormade rocketballz is it…

@Corey, @Zac-
Phil isn’t using Callaway 3wood.. He’s using a Taylormade Rocketballz 3wood… the new ones are not out yet for him to use so they told him to use whatever you feel will let you win….

I saw an interview with Phil Mickelson last night. He is using the new 3 wood and he is now hitting it over 300 yards with it.

Corey, just cause Phil can do it doesn’t mean you can. Also come over to my desk when you get a chance. We need to talk about your internet usage while at work.
