Hit the new X forged yesterday because I think it looks spectacular but wasn't thrilled with the feel. The line for 2013 looks great. Could be a big year for Callaway.

i agree with mack. I hit the new Xforged about two weeks ago. It made it down to my final 3 choices (ended up going with TItleist 712cb/mb) but the feel just was not their for me. Seemed a little clicky. Nice thing is project x shafts are stock for those irons

Been thinking of replacing my CG16s with these wedges from Callaway. They look super nice.

Wish the new x forged had a satin finish. I hate shinny chrome irons!

Tomorrow's X Hot release can't come quicker. I am dying to try those woods.
I demoed the whole xhot woods line at Golfsmith yesterday. The xhot pro 17* will be replacing my 15* 3 wood

Hit the xhot pro fairway and hybrid.. Loved them, then watched "Shank" from chasing the dream on golf channel absolutely bomb the xhot pro driver. Also hit the x forged irons and really liked them. Cally has some great stuff gore 2013.. PGA show has been fun so far

RAZR X forged ???
It's tough to read because of the crappy iPhone camera, but, yeah, it says "RAZR X" on the back of the sole.

Tried out the X-Forged, X-Hot Pro irons and both are fantastic. I did not think the X-Forged felt all too harsh or clicky, but perhaps I prefer the less than super soft forgings.
The X-Hot Pro iron has fantastic lines, transition and top line. It does however feature a noticeable amount of offset. Especially when comparing to the X-Forged, or competitors like the AP2 or RBlz Tour. It is curious though, because my initial reaction is distain for such a feature, but it does an excellent job of framing the ball. Feel is also very good for a cast cavity back. My vote still goes to the X-Forged on feel, looks and thinner sole.
The X-Hot fairway is very user friendly and the finish looks great. The ball jumps, without that feeling of those very thin faced clubs. I did not try the pro, but I think size wise that would be my preference. I would love to see new wedges too, but I guess you have to leave somethings for later.
