using it to design a complicated internal titanium rib system. I don;t spend any more on clubs than I can afford and just because I don’t get the latest in so-called technology doesn’t put me at a disadvantage! Callaway has once again opted to use Artificial Intelligence at the forefront of it's product design. - Sophisticated internal titanium rib system that fine-tunes the head to produce a deeper, highly satisfying sound. , you can fix it through Callaway Customs. And to say “we’re going with a lower MOI because to go higher in MOI means we have to use a head shape that generates more drag that will slow down your clubhead speed?? Bought a Mavrik 10.5 for my son – it feels like a soft forging off the face with a pleasing, muted sound. AI was the reason, according to Callaway, that Flash produced more peak (dead nuts center contact) ball speed than other drivers (higher COR), while still staying under the USGA CT limit – most of the time, anyway. seller for 2020. Ping as the winning standard to dispersion. Accessibility is an ongoing effort for GlobalGolf. That said, I’m appreciate less flash. The company believes it will be the best fit 60%-70% of golfers. Effectively it’s about hitting the target line and then having the ball fall in the desired direction over the final 3rd of its flight. You do lose a bit of fitting flexibility, but simplicity brings advantages. The 3 wood has less potential for drag through the air because it’s so much smaller than the driver head. With Mavrik’s Cyclone Aero Shape, more so than TaylorMade and Cobra, Callaway flattened the crown a bit and raised the skirt sections of the driver, while keeping the trailing edge high. The feel of all the hits is good. Thank you Tom, always the voice of reason. So, before we dig into the fixes, let’s take a brief moment to list the problems. Maybe you work for Callaway or are connected somehow(shill?). To put a number on it, the company says, despite the lower MOI, its new face design improves downrange dispersion by 13%. Considering this is a website based on equipment and the gains and improvements that new models will provide along with the talk about all the tech and engineering I think it’s an interesting call about taking lessons. From a guy who knows what he’s talking about, everyone should read your books on club head design. Sure $500 is a lot of money and the years of 10 meter gains might be gone but that’s why we come to look at the website to see what is new and hopefully improved.

That’s because what controls clubhead speed is the length, shaft weight, total weight, headweight and for some, the additional effect of the bending feel of the shaft on your release/timing as well as how the grip size relaxes your hands/wrists to achieve a more free release, not the shape or size of the head. Callaway says the total MOI of the Mavrik driver is in the 7000 range. Created Next Level Distance MAVRIK Sub Zero is a low spinning driver with high MOI which offers two interchangeable weights to fine-tune trajectory. Get notified when we get it!

Hocknell says that “more elaborate on the outside often means more elaborate on the inside.” Within the context of Mavrik, the lack of a track to facilitate the movement of weight around the perimeter likely simplified the task of building sound dampening structures within the driver, but regardless, the feeling inside Callaway is that Mavrik offers a much more satisfying experience at impact.

The White joins the Black and Silver in the Rogue 130 lineup. The first is that companies that produce drivers with high top-to-bottom MOI (Ixx) will almost certainly dispute any suggestion of a lack of spin robustness. With more computing horsepower at its disposal and a better understanding of how to leverage it, Callaway’s use of AI has evolved from a research tool to a design tool. Specifically, high MOI shapes are typically less aerodynamically efficient (many golfers swing them slower), and boosting inertia usually mandates higher centers of gravity. Even with supercomputers, it still boils down to materials and geometry. I play about 120 rounds a season and 15 tournaments. Scoring the same on my home course of 12 holes where I work says more than spending all this money on newer technology and not having anything to show for it on the scorecard! .

Of the three models, Mavrik (no suffix) is the only one that features a true Cyclone Aero shape. Betcha my $500 improvement in technique beats anybody else’s $500 improvement in equipment. You have to teach it, and even when you reach the point where the machine understands the task at hand, if you don’t tell it exactly what you want, you’re unlikely to get exactly what you need. Peak speed is nice, but we all miss the sweet spot more often than not. Hit one if you can, it&aposs a game changer.

Retail availability begins on January 23rd, 2020. It’s your basic strength to weight ratio story, but the key bits are that SS20 allowed Callaway to reduce the weight of the face by 6-grams (that’s a significant amount in driver design), while also making the face itself more resilient. The only difference is that Small Batch shafts are manufactured to tighter tolerances. If I achieved the 5-8 yards of additional distance, based on buying a new driver every year, I should be hitting it over 300 yards now based on the cumulative year over year gain. Don't see the club you want? Last time around, Callaway didn’t ask the right questions, or perhaps, more accurately, it didn’t ask enough questions. The resiliency bit is particularly important as it makes Mavrik faces significantly less prone to CT creep. This isn't 30 minutes on the range with range balls or looking out of the Pro-Shop window. It’s available in the aftermarket, one was in play at the Sony last week (Aldila hopes it will get more tour play), and there’s no reason why it couldn’t find its way into other OEM lineups.

If you’ve bought a new driver within the last 4 years, save your money. Callaway sees them as yet another compromise. No Cleveland Browns fans in the house? While face geometry (bulge and roll, in particular) also plays a role in producing consistent results, MOI is typically a good indicator of how a driver will perform when you miss the sweet spot. Putting the heavier 12g weight at the front will drop the spin so if you are a 100mph plus swing speed player than that is where the Sub Zero starts to become at option. You can try the product on your time, when & where you want. There’s also less of it, which contributes to the lower price point relative to other Rogue 130 offerings. “If you don’t ask the right questions, you don’t get the right answers,” says Dr. Alan Hocknell, Callaway’s VP of R&D. Reading Tom’s reply I was always lead to believe there is more aerodynamic inefficiency at the hozel than anywhere else. I’m a 5 handicap, obviously not a bomber with my swing speed being under 100 but this club produces an amazing, low spin ball flight and rolls like mad when it lands. This driver really pops the ball off the face. By any reasonable comparison, the Callaway Mavrik is a low MOI driver. The head is constantly rotating, and rotating a LOT during the backswing and downswing. The result, just like his test of the Mav vs the Epic, showed that it’s marketing sauce addled sheep that are deluded. The Mavrik sounds great and I don’t have to look at the “sunset” default orange. Want to test out two different brands, or two different configurations? ?” Puhlease. As the center of gravity moves away from the face – as is the case with high MOI designs – spin robustness (spin consistency) drops off. Project X maintains that its OEM offerings are identical to the namesake Small Batch versions sold through premium fitters. Unlike the standard Mavrik, Max offers a more conventional take on forgiveness.

Through the AI-driven placement of internal sound ribs, Callaway says it was able to resolve the sound issues. A couple of 10ths of a mile per hour may not sound like much, but it’s infinitely more than zero. 2019 was a good year for Callaway drivers. “When you don’t have [sliding] weights and have three models,” says Alan Hocknell, “you can design for a variety of issues, CG, MOI; prioritizing speed, and targeting heads for different golfers.”. In addition, if there were any complaints about last year’s Epic drivers, it was the sound of the driver which were resolved in the Mavrik series by using it’s Acoustic AI. The Sub Zero is positioned for the better player, or at an absolute minimum, the higher swing speed player. Not only does Mavrik boost off-center ball speeds over Epic Flash, but it also improves them to the degree that Callaway doesn’t need to rely on MOI to maintain ball speed.
