The material
Forget Composite: The new “Forged Composite” technology from Callaway is a result of working with the automobile company Lamborghini as they did as well with the Callway RAZR Hawk driver with great result.
The lighter club head has allowed Callaway to place material in different places in the head putting it lower and further away from the face. This helps the club gain better pool in the center with better gravity which in return helps the club move the golf ball upwards. The new material is lighter and stronger than the popular Titanium, one third of the density of the Titanium to be exact, in the attempt to reduce its weight in order to create maximum speed and greater distance.
The reduced weight in the head is not just about speed as it has a very high Moment of Inertia (MOI) and will therefore minimize the chance of the club head twisting which will increase the probability of straight hits.
Hyberbolic Face Technology: Improves impact efficiency and produces a consistent high ball speed which creates a larger “sweet spot”. What Callaway has done here is remove strategically extra material from the face of the club.
Project X Graphite Shaft: The new technology and lighter head allows for a longer shaft and the Project X Graphite Shaft is their longest shaft to date. Produced to get the most out of the Diablo Octane Driver the Project X is a high quality shaft that gives a good feel and maximum performance.
The Octane Tour Model: The Octane Tour is made for those players that have a lower handicap but can be used with good result by mid range handicappers.
It is also worth mentioning that the Diablo Octane is 1″ longer that the Callaway Diablo Edge (46″ vs. 45″). The Octane Driver comes in 9.5-, 10.5-, 11.5- and 13-degree HT lofts. The Diablo Octane Tour version (8.5 , 9.5 , 10.5 degrees), comes standard at 45.5″. The driver is available for both right and left handed as well as being available for ladies, regular, senior and stiff.
Let´s see if the 460cc Diablo Octane Driver delivers the result.
