Found it at the Callaway site. If i get the model correct, it should be the Org XT cartbag. Looks real good. Kena poison again. Need to resist first. But you know the price? Can start saving first.

Btw,the fishy wedges are next in line for my upgrade. Still waiting for the auspicious moment to pull the plug.

X Hot is just that ... very HOT!!! Twisted Evil

Tried the X Hot Pro 3 wood which is 145cc compared to the X Hot's 160cc, and the Pro has a deeper face for lower spin. Found it to be extremely hot of the face (max COR) and the ball goes a mile off the tee. However, I would still consider it to have a shallow face (compared to the RBZ) making it relatively easy to launch off the deck as well. The 55 degree lie angle makes the club sit really well at address and results in great turf interaction through impact. The RBZ is 59 degrees which I found far too upright.

Highly recommended!

Good for you for buying both 3&5W!

I was thinking about the 5W since I tried it last Saturday at the Den.... resisted to even ask for the price

Cheers

3Deep sweet spot is higher, therefore better for tee-up?
