Callaway Great Big Bertha II Drivers Review

Callaway Great Big Bertha II


Description
All-titanium construction with an ultra-thin face delivers high ball speeds for more distance Expanded head volume (380cc) and high moment of inertia make the face hot over a larger area for more distance even on off-center hits Spin rate and launch angle are optimized over the entire face area for more consistent trajectory Conforms to USGA C.O.R. rules Features GBB System 60 graphite shafts The Pro Series GBB II Drivers have neutral weighting and open face angles that appeal to players who want more ability to shape their shots, and who generally hit a draw

Callaway Big Bertha II Driver

Summary:
Bought this GBB II drive in 9 degree with Callaway RCS stiff flex shaft. Swing? Hard to tell with this driver: I have been using my Titleist 975d for the last 7 years & the forgiveness of the Great Big Bertha II that others have described just doesn't seem to be there (for me anyway). I play a fade most of the time, and granted, it is the Indian and not the Arrow....but I made several adjustments to the swing at the driving range (3 visits) and 2 rounds, alas not much change. More carry than the 975d and ball flight is higher; I use the same swing between these two clubs but get different results. Funny thing is, if I try to hit this club like a fairway wood with a low tee and sweep the grass....it is great and stays straight to about 270-280 yards. Nice club, but it is a players club in my opinion. not for 20 handicappers like me. My friends tell me to step up and get a bigger driver. Gonna try the 460cc FT-5 model (draw) and see if there is a difference.

Callway Great big bertha II

Summary:
I've been playing golf for almost 5 years now. I started with a cheap set up clubs and have been slowly working my way up to better clubs. I decided last year to purchase a used driver aomething that was better than the Cougar X-cat walmart driver I was playing with and read some reviews and picked up this club for about $35.00 online. I have never hit a ball off the tee 240yds until this club. I strongly urge any begginer to the sport of golf to purchase this driver.

Callaway Great BB II Driver

Summary:
Bought this GBB II driver (GBB system 60 shaft) off eBay for $19.95 which is still in good condition. Took it to the range to compare with my Tour Edge Exotic (Aldila NV shaft)and my 2004 360cc BB titanium (ProLaunch Blue shaft).. Good club, but at best it's as good as my 2004 BB driver, not a WOW factor as I would have hoped, but overall it's stìll a good driver, Not as good as my favorite Tour Edge Exotic driver, most likely that I don't compare apples to apples because the shaft makes a huge difference... but for $19.95 I can't go wrong

Customer Service:
No one can beat Callaway customer service

Summary:
I have owned several drivers over the years and this one is by far the easiest to hit. The ball is always straight and long off of this driver.I would recommend this club to anyone looking to hit long straight drives.
