Re: Callaway HX Hot

I found this ball about a year ago and played a great round. So I bought a case and have not been to anything else. It really flys off the tee and the fairway, but still is has enough feel for me to putt really well with it. The other thing is, it is really durable. The ball normally gets lost before I have to get rid of it because it is just too beat up. Probably not the first choice for a low handicap, but I have been really pleased with it.

Re: Callaway HX Hot

I like this ball a lot. It performs very well for my home course. It is long off the tee. I like the way it rolls of the putter face as well. It doesn't spin as much as you would like, but still a solid ball.

Re: Callaway HX Hot

This is a really good ball...the distance is great but more importantly it is an accurate ball with a good feel...pro v1s spoil anyone for most other balls around the green, but these aren't too bad...like others have said they are durable...I still play this ball every now and then...

Re: Callaway HX Hot

Good ball, lots of distance to it. Only reason I don't buy it more often is price, I like to pay $15 a dozen for balls, these are about $25 or so a dozen.

Re: Callaway HX Hot

Best ball for the price I have ever used. Love the distance and control into the greens.

Putts very well.

Great buy !

Highly recommended by this Ol Dude!

Re: Callaway HX Hot

My favourite ball so far - fairly long and straight, decent feel around and on the green. I haven't tried this year's version yet though

Re: Callaway HX Hot

I've actually found these balls to go as far or farther than the other balls I've played. Maybe I was just having a good day swinging the club...but it was longer than what I'd been seeing.

Re: Callaway HX Hot

Very long. But, I had to take it out of the bag. I couldn't get my touch down when chipping with it. Everything flew off the face and left me with 10-20 footers coming back.
