Description The new Diablo Edge Hybrids have been specifically designed to provide golfers with a more forgiving, distance enhancing alternative to long irons. And with standard and Tour models, there are options for all player types.
Summary: I bought this club (10.5deg) for the reason it had a open clubface to tone down my draw. I bought the X Flex. Well i soon snapped the shaft (factory shaft was too lite and too much torque). I installed a penley sfs 90 gram x flex 265cpm. 44 1/2 in, D6.
WOW!!! 13-14deg launch, 3000 spin and the longest drives ever. This club hit in the sweet spot is crazy looong!. I am swinging 100-105 max, but a solid smash factor, with this length
I can hit draws and fades easy.
This driver is very good for the money and has distance = to the ping g15, just a bit less forgiving 'but not much'. I would recommend a heavy shaft / 44 1/2-45inch set up to get max control for the x flex players. The heavy shaft is 'laser beam' straight and more control. I am actually getting more distance because i am confident to 'go all out'.
This Driver set up with a good shaft is Awesome!. Now i am splitting fairways, drawing doglegs, and powerfading where needed. I am shooting birdies once again because i have given myself many chances at a good second shot to the green.
Hope this helps.

Summary: Over the last year, I have had a hard time with drivers. Whether it was cracked faces (Ping i15), seperating face (Callaway FT Tour), Or just not for me (R11, Cobra S9-1 Pro D). Well, it might be honeymoon phase, but I love this driver! The first time I hit it was on the first hole at the course, and it delivered nicely, slight draw, and great ball flight. It only got better from there..I couldn't swing this thing to hard, I have never seen a driver you can just go all out and it does what you picture before the shot. I hit the ball pretty far, and I was NOT dissapointed in the disatance of this driver. And most importantly, it is accurate. I have it paired with the Habanero X flex stock shaft. I actually ordered a pulled Project X shaft from an Octane driver to put in it when I ordered this driver just because going by the shaft specs and reviews, I thought I would have to reshaft it immediately. I was wrong, and now I have an extra shaft. The torque on this shaft is high, and my swing speed hovers around 115, so it doesn't make sense that it would work at all for me, but..It just shows that specs mean nothing, and you have to hit 22,000 combinations to find the right one. I think I have finally done that. I would recommend it very much.
Customer Service: No idea, i took the FT Tour back to the shop I bought it at and they gave me credit.

Model Reviewed: Callaway Tour Edge Driver 10.5 degree regular flex
Summary: I bought a Callaway Tour Edge driver from Callaway Preowned in like-new condition for a great price. I decided to try it because it has a 1 degree open face and I was hoping it would help me to avoid my hook. After several months using this driver, I'm very happy with it. I've been able to hit it very straight, and as far as distance, it's been about as long as any driver I've had. The sound at impact is very solid -- not a tinny hollow sound like some big head drivers. For me, the Callaway Tour Edge driver is working well and I'm likely to have this in my bag for a while.
Customer Service: In the past, I've had some experience with Callaway Preowned customer service and they have been very good.

Summary: Bought this to replace my Mizuno MX-series driver, which was accurate but nothing special. First swing with the Diablo Edge Tour, wow! Launched a drive 245 yards, easily 20 yards longer than the Mizuno. Mine has the Aldila Habanero R flex shaft and it fits my swing perfectly. Great sound at impact, great solid feel. Just a great product from Callaway.

Model Reviewed: Callaway Diablo Edge Tour 8.5* Stiff
Summary: Let me preface by saying I am a 6 handicap who has ALWAYS fought off hitting the driver way too high with too much spin. This club has me cured....I was fit a Callaway Demo Day which feautured the Tour Van on site. This driver is your key to a more penetrating ball flight. The combination of the heavier head with the Aldila Habanero shaft drops bombs! I was always able to hit it 270-275 but never got any roll, my drives are now flying 280-285 and getting another 10-15 yards of roll from there. I cant say it enough, if you need help getting your ball flight down, check this out! It may not be for everyone due to the slightly open face and smaller head but if you can put a consistent pass at the ball, this club will reward you BIG TIME!
Customer Service: If you ever get a chance to experience the Callaway Tour Van do it, great fitting system and the club is built for you right on site!
