RH Only
FT-i Tour 7.5* Driver
7.5* Loft Only, 0.5* Open
Opti-Fit: Draw/Neutral Only
RH Only

Higher bounce version of standard X-Forged (Less Dig, everything else the same.)

224 hosel, bronze finish

The FT-5 with a hosel looks very cool. I've seen a number of pics of it and I have to say that I was impressed. Cally has done it right with that setup. I'll bet it will be a hit.

The game of golf is played pin high!! If anything, take one more club. Far too many golfers never hit their approach shots even remote close to the green.

Maybe we should start a BSG thread , they did start this whole "Tour" thing .So even though they didnt protect themselves from ultimate failure they did have at least one really good idea between them once . |

This true....I bet they are dying that Callaway is doing this, but on Callaways end good move, they obviously see that there is niche for the stuff and they are capitalizing on it. |

I wonder if Callaway subsidizes them for being their marketing dept as to how much fools will spend? |

I doubt it, being a big company like Callaway my guess is they told them their compensation was what they were able to weasel out of their members before they launched the Tour Authenic line.....which would appear to be alot of money, judging by all the lcg heads and other ill-fit Callaway products in their BST |

you guys forget soo easily.... "its all about the CG position".... Tour rejects have much better placed CG locations which in some cases create zero spin and if you don't get one you are leaving yards on the table!
