Impressive Callaway RAZR Fit Driver

The Callaway RAZR Fit Driver combines Forged Composite and OptiFit Technology to make Callaway's first adjustable driver.
The RAZR Fit's Forged Composite crown contains over 7,000,000 turbostratic carbon fibres designed to reinforce 30% of the clubhead. The crown material is lighter and stronger than titanium, and thanks to a new Streamlined Surface Technology, it reduces energy loss from drag by 27% compared to the original RAZR Hawk Driver.
The Callaway RAZR Fit Driver is Callaway's first driver to feature adjustability. The OptiFit Hosel adjusts the face angle of the driver to Open, Square or Closed while the 12g and 2g weights shift the centre of gravity promoting either draw or neutral biased ball flights.
VFT and Hyperbolic Face Technologies combine to create a larger sweet spot on the Callaway RAZR Fit Driver resulting in higher ball speeds across the face. A chemical milling process selectively removes excess material for precision thickness control, meaning weight can be redistributed to the perimeter of the club for higher MOI.
We were among the first to test the Callaway RAZR Fit Driver and we were very impressed as the sound and feel are excellent. The 455 cc head has a lovely shape and Callaway say it is 27% more aerodynamic than the RAZR Hawk driver which equates to an additional 1.3 miles per hour extra clubhead speed. Now that may not sound like much, but it's probably worth about half a club less into the green. The lighter forged composite crown helps the increase the club's MOI and unlike the Diablo Octane driver, the carbon pattern is hidden from view.
Callaway has been using adjustable weights in their drivers since 1999, but they were pre-fitted, so the RAZR Fit driver is the first model where you have been able to adjust them yourself or with the help of a fitter. Combine the moveable weights with the new adjustable hosel and you do have a much more flexible and accurate custom fitting process than before.
This uses a sleeve on the hosel to offer 3 options for the face angle are clear and easy to understand and adjust. When you set the face to open it changes the angle by 2.5 degrees and decreases the loft by 1 degree. Set the face to close and you shut the face by 1.5 degrees and add a degree of loft, which will make the club easier to hit. One nice feature is that the shaft is not rotated when you adjust the face angle and therefore it keeps the grip in the same position for every setting.
