speed at impact. At
the same time, Callaway combines hyperbolic
shaping of the clubface with precision thickness
control to create a larger sweet spot.
Not everything is new with the RAZR Fit,
however, and Callaway has also employed
some tried and true technologies in this driver,
which has already found its way into the bags of
touring pros such as Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els
and Alvaro Quiros. Such as the forged com-
posite material it uses in the RAZR Fit crown,
to optimize Center of Gravity and improve MOI
(Moment of Inertia) for better forgiveness.
“Callaway is not just entering the adjustability
race with the introduction of RAZR fit,” says Dr.
Alan Hocknell, senior vice president of Research
and Development at the California clubmaker.
“We are taking the pole position, and the adjust-
able features combined with our proprietary
technologies allow golfers to play a more mean-
ingful role than ever before in their journey to
optimized performance.”
The RAZR Fit driver comes standard with
a 45.5-inch Aldila RIP’d NV shaft and a Golf
Pride New Decade multi-compound grip. l

Callaway’s RAZR Fit
Brings Adjustability
Callaway RAZR
Fit driver
BY JOHN STEINBREDER
The big news behind this month’s introduction of Callaway Golf’s RAZR Fit driver is that
it marks the first time the equipment maker
has offered one with movable weights and an
adjustable hosel.
Let’s begin with the OptiFit adjustability
system employed in the hosel, so golfers can
set their face angles at address three ways:
open, square and closed. Then, there are the two
movable weights in the clubhead, one weighing
12 grams and the other two, that can be used to
manipulate Center of Gravity and help promote
either a neutral or draw ball flight.
In addition, the RAZR Fit driver incorporates
what company engineers describe as “an aerodynamic shaping innovation” called Streamlined
Surface Technology that is designed to improve
air flow and reduce the energy loss during a
swing due to drag. Which helps to increase
that all-important, distance-enhancing swing
