Today, we\u2019re going to be reviewing the Callaway Rogue fairway wood and I\u2019ll be sharing my honest thoughts after testing out this club. One of my favorite clubs to hit is a wood, so I was excited to get my hands on the Rogue (seeing as how I\u2019m a Callaway fam) and take a couple of swings. I\u2019ve tested quite a few different woods, so how did the Rogue stack up?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Long story short, I really liked the Rogue and would give it a thumbs up. I\u2019ve always been a Callaway fan, so I\u2019m already kind of used to their clubs, but I really noticed the improvement when it comes to forgiveness. It has a taller face than before, and that makes the club more forgiving on off-center hits. I liked how it felt and sounded at impact, which I can\u2019t say for a lot of clubs these days. It had some great alignment aids on it which made things a lot easier, and best of all, it was long off the fairway (for me anyway).<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If that\u2019s all the info you were looking for then great. But if you want a more detailed review of the club, be sure to watch the full review video or blog post below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first thing I noticed with the Rogue was the mid-sized shape of the head. I\u2019m not a huge fan of some of the smaller or bigger clubs out there, so this one was a perfect size. It\u2019s not too smaller where it\u2019s hard to hit and it\u2019s not too big and bulky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The next thing I liked about it was the taller face. It wasn\u2019t a lot taller, but it definitely helped add forgiveness which was a huge help for me (and probably a lot of others). It also had really helpful alignment aids which were a big plus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In terms of feel, it felt pretty much like any other Callaway in the past (which was good for me). It was solid at impact and didn\u2019t feel hollow like a lot of other clubs these days. Even off-center hits felt pretty solid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The only thing I didn\u2019t like the best was the sound of the club. Not a huge deal or anything like that, but the pitch was somewhat medium, and in my opinion, other models sounded better (doesn\u2019t take away from the performance).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Since I was already used to Callaway clubs, the transition was pretty smooth. I noticed right away that my ball speed on off-center hits was faster than before which would be great for mid to high handicaps. When I hit it pure the distance was actually longer than my previous driver (which I was pretty shocked by).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The launch angle was higher than my old fairway wood and it gave me less spin. I found that pretty helpful for reducing the dreaded hook and slice which a lot of people would find useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It had 4 shaft options to pick from, but this really shouldn\u2019t make a difference for most mid to high handicaps. It also has 8 loft settings so you can tweak it and see what works best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here\u2019s a demo video:<\/p>\n\n\nCallaway Rogue First Impressions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
