Callaway Big Bertha V-Series Fairway Woods

Published

on

Callaway’s new V-Series fairway woods are designed with “Speed Optimized Technology,” making them lighter and more aerodynamic to promote more ball speed and distance.

The fairway woods use the same Hyper Speed Face design that helped Callaway’s X2 Hot and X2 Hot Pro fairway woods receive top billing in our 2014 Gear Trials: Best Fairway Woods list, and also have a high-launch design that make thems one of Callaway’s most forgiving fairway woods. Like Callaway’s other fairway woods, they use the company’s Modern Warbird Sole Plate to improve turf interaction.

The V-Series fairway woods are available in 3, 5, 7 and 9 woods, as well as in a “Heavenwood” that has 20.5 degrees of loft and measures 43 inches. That gives it more loft than a 5 wood, but it has a longer shaft that can help golfers hit their shots farther.

The fairway woods come stock with a Mitsubishi Rayon 2nd Generation Bassara E-Series 52 shaft in light, regular and stiff-flex options and sell for $239.99 each.

    Anyone hear rumors of another Callaway line expected to come out shortly, after this line? I heard photos are already online.

    I did a range demo of the 3-wood last week and didn’t like it. I didn’t get any pop at all off the face. I also hit the SLDR and G30 3-woods and liked both of them better. The SLDR was a little tougher to control but when you dialed it in, it was excellent.
    The G30 was the best of the one’s that I tried. Easy to hit, nice adjustability. I haven’t made a purchase yet and will try a few more.
    The Callaway was the worst by far…not sure why because the X-Hot is a beast.

      I’m crushing it 250-260 off the deck and off the tee with a stock stiff shaft. Maybe the mid-kick shaft isn’t for you though.

    They’re out now. I just received my Heavenwood yesterday. I’m taking it out this weekend for a test drive.

    I totally agree. Callaway is horrible considering they have Phil. I went to the Callaway store in Las Vegas looking to buy wedges and the sales man told me I could order them. They don’t stock them… It’s a callaway only store.

      Totally agree left handed golfers not well catered for by Callaway, ping are much better for lefties. Like the look of these but I notice there are no pro versions they all have square faces, and not keen on the stock shaft, but I like the sole and the shape of the head looks good.

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

  • PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
  • driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300.  The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length.  I am playing a Ventus Red 70.   I play 70 grams in my fairways.  I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee.  When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time.  So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck.  The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
  • JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
