HX Red

Summary:
This was my favorite ball, but now they quit making them. Same thing happened with the Revolution Tour. Anyway, this ball is great off the driver, and it is also pretty good off wedges. A great ball if you can still find any.

Model Reviewed:
Callaway HX Red

Summary:
I have played the Callaway HX Tour and the Titleist Pro V1's for quite a while. I got a sleve of the HX Blue at a company outting and liked the feel around the green, but thought it felt "mushy" off the tee. A friend of mine suggested I try the Red. I did and I am sold. I actually think this ball "bites" on the green better than the HX Tour and seems to "jump" off the driver.

Like anything, its a preference thing, for me, this ball meets my game requirements and is now my ball of choice.

Callaway HX Red

Summary:
Very nice overall golf ball. The Reds jump off the driver and carry very well. They also spin well enough off of a full swing short iron to back up a little bit on a green. They don't spin quite as well as the HX Blue, but then again, they aren't supposed to. The only thing that I have a gripe with is that they are a little "clicky" off the club for my liking...but hey, some people like that. Overall, I'm going to keep playing Callaway's for a while. They are a high quality golf ball. I'm going to try the HX Tour next...should be a slight upgrade on the Red.

Model Reviewed:
HX Red

Summary:
I would say that this is my favorite ball, but it's just a bit lacking to the HX Tour distance-wise. Despite that, it's cheaper price, similar feel, and otherwise fantastic performance make this a ball I'd rather put into play without fear of losing an overly expensive ball.

The HX/HEX aerodynamics may simply be hyped (if it was that great I don't think the USGA would want to approve it), but it certainly has a very true, boring ball flight in the wind. On a more cosmetic and aesthetic level, the hexagons look very sleek and make a visually appealing ball on the greens and off the tee. I'm also much more comfortable now using the Callaway chevron to line up putts (with the apex pointing toward the target), be it with the HX Tour or HX Red.

Callaway has put out some fantastic golf balls this year that everyone should definitely try. If PGA Tour players weren't wrapped up in equipment contracts, I think we'd see a real threat to Titleist's crown as the #1 ball.
