When a driver has the word Hot in it, it better live up to its name. Hearing the word hot makes me think distance, pure distance, and ball speed coming directly off the clubface. The Callaway X Hot does offer quite a bit of this speed, and some forgiveness as.

- Jan 13, 2014 The X2 Hot Pro driver (bottom photo) has a taller face than the X2 Hot driver, giving it a more robust appearance at address. When compared to the X2 Hot Pro, the X2 Hot driver has more draw bias to minimize the slice tendency of average golfers and is designed to help golfers launch the ball higher.
Callaway’s new X2 Hot and X2 Hot Pro drivers are all about ball speed. Both drivers are highlighted by Callaway’s Hyper Speed Face made of 455 Carpenter steel.
In 2013, Callaway used 455 Carpenter steel in the face of its X Hot fairway woods. The clubs were so successful at retail that Callaway decided to use the material in the faces of all its X2 Hot metalwoods (drivers, fairway woods and hybrids) for 2014.
Both drivers include Callaway’s OptiFit adjustable hosel. Not only does this mean that golfers easily can change shafts, OptiFit also provides independent loft and lie adjustment as well as shot-shape adjustment (neutral or draw). There are eight settings.
The loft range varies from 2 degrees up to 1 degree down from the stock loft of each driver. Lofts for X2 Hot are 9, 10.5 and 13.5 HT. For X2 Hot Pro, only one loft is available: 8.5 degree. With loft adjustment, the Pro model can be lowered to 7.5 degree or raised as high as 10.5 degree.
A 7-gram nonadjustable external weight screw can be found in the back of the X2 Hot Pro.

The standard shaft for the X2 Hot driver is the Aldila Tour Blue, while the X2 Hot Pro driver comes with the Aldila Tour Green shaft. The Aldila Tour Blue shaft is somewhat softer than the Tour Green and produces a higher trajectory. Tour Green has been more popular than Tour Blue on the PGA Tour, but Bill Haas and a few other players have used Tour Blue.
