Have you ever heard the saying that there are no pictures on a scorecard? Most golfers have. Anyway there is an infinite number of ways that you can make a good score. It doesn't really matter how it is done, a good score is a good score and vice versa.There are times when you hit it like a complete donkey and struggle to hit a barn door with a shovel, but somehow you still make a good score. Well, the square drivers are like the bad round that turned out good.
If you can get past the looks and weirdness they do what they say on the tin - Hit the ball long and straight. What would you rather prefer? A driver that is just gorgeous to look at that sticks you in the garbage more often than not, or an ugly driver that splits the fairway and sets you up with your favourite iron to the green?
When you do hit the FT-i, it does make a stranger sound. It isn't like the all titanium drivers that make the sweet ping sound. It is a bit more of a clunky sound. It will take me a bit to get used to that. The only thing that I am disappointed in was that it would take up to two months to get the specs that I am looking for. Well, what can I say I am very fussy when it comes to my golf clubs and wasn't exactly looking for off the rack specs, so I really only have myself to blame.
One thing I did like about the FT-i was the ball flight. I had the same trajectory pretty much every time. I have a GBBII Pro Series and sometimes it will come out a bit low or a bit hight, but with the FT-i, no matter where I hit it on the club face, there always seemed to be the consistency of ball flight.
The Callaway FT-i is better looking than the Nike Sumo2 (although still takes a bit to get used to) and just hits the ball long and straight. Anyone that doesn't have one of these in their bag has to question how much they want to improve. Take my advice, get your head round the looks and get one of these in your bag. Would you rather take your opponent's money, or let them take your's? I know what I decided. Stick the Callaway FT-i in you bag NOW!
