description Callaway XR Driver Overview
The Callaway XR Driver is a titanium golf club introduced in 2015 with an emphasis on clubhead speed and distance. A raised Speed Step near the front of the crown was developed with input from aerospace specialists to reduce aerodynamic drag during the swing, while the face construction was designed to preserve ball speed across a broad area. It is intended for golfers seeking a lightweight, forgiving driver rather than the extensive movable-weight systems found in some adjustable models.
