Callaway FT-5 Driver


$499.00 Released February, 2007

Product Shot 1 The Pros:OptiFit Weighting System gives golfers the choice of 3 center of gravity locations depending on their ball flight tendency (draw, fade, neutral). Titanium cup face with variable wall thickness increases the size of the sweet spot and limits distance loss on off-center hits. Fusion Technology strategically positions 50 grams of weight around the perimeter to produce a high MOI and a more stable clubhead at impact.

The Cons:Loud unpleasant sound at impact. Hard to find as it is an aged driver no longer being manufactured by Callaway.

The FT-5 Driver is the latest evolution in clubead design and innovative technology from Callaway. Callaway utilizes Fusion Technology and Optiweight fitting system to give golfers increased customization to match their specific swing.

Fusion Technology creates 50 grams of discretionary weight in the clubead. There is a 25 gram weight located at the back of the clubhead designed to lower the center-of-gravity for optimal trajectory. The driver is similar to the Callaway FT-i Driver except it has a more traditional round head shape and wider clubface. 

Features:

  • The carbon composite body is lighter than titanium, improving stability and distance.
  • The CT/VFT Titanium Cup Face is Callaway's largest, hottest face for increased ball speed on shots hit all over the face
  • The 460cc head design is incorporated with a longer, wider and hotter face for more confidence at address, a higher MOI and increased ball speed for longer, straighter drives.
  • Modified VFT (Variable Face Thickness) technology is used in the FT5 to give a more robust face for increased ball speed on shots hit all over the face.
