It\u2019s a bit lighter than my old driver (most people like this) and also had a bigger head. The biggest thing I noticed was the increased forgiveness which would help a lot of \u201cweekend\u201d golfers. For me, my ball flight was definitely straighter and it did actually go a bit further which I\u2019ll take all day long.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If that\u2019s enough info for you then great.

That\u2019s a plus because if you\u2019ve ever used a Callaway driver before, you\u2019ll feel right at home with this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my opinion, it\u2019s an awesome looking driver. It\u2019s got a bigger head than before (so it can have a bigger sweet spot) and it\u2019s a bit lighter than the older Callaways. I prefer a bit of a heavier driver like the XR 16 but it really wasn\u2019t that big of a deal and a lot of people like the lighter ones anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Callaway, the new Rogue has 16% more forgiveness than before, and if that\u2019s the case, a lot of your \u201caverage\u201d golfers could benefit from this club. Is it actually true though? Let\u2019s talk about that\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Did It Perform?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You could have all the best features, make it feel super comfortable, and have it sound unreal, but if the performance isn\u2019t there it\u2019s a complete waste\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s not the case with this club (for me) because the first thing I noticed was my ball flight was a lot straighter than before. My driver has always gone left to right (not the worst thing if you know how to play it) and for whatever reason, it straightened out quite a bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just by having my ball stay straight, my distance also improved which is another bonus. It wasn\u2019t a huge amount or anything like that, but it definitely helped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just by having those 2 things, I think this club is worth picking up.

I know that sounds like most people, but it really helped me, and I think it could help you as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How about a low handicap? Even though it doesn\u2019t have all the adjustments in the world like the M3, I think it could still benefit the scratch golfer as well (a lot of LPGA players are using the Rogue).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>It\u2019s a great looking club that also sounds and feels solid at impact.<\/li><li>It has more forgiveness than before.<\/li><li>It\u2019ll also produce more clubhead speed.<\/li><li>It comes with a wider sweet spot which will add distance.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A bit lighter than I was used to.<\/li><li>It doesn\u2019t come with any sliding weights (most people shouldn\u2019t even worry about this).<\/li><li>It\u2019s pretty expensive.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re a Callaway fan, I think you\u2019d love this driver and would love the new technology that\u2019s inside it. The price is on the higher end, but if you golf a lot, I\u2019d say it\u2019s definitely worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, if you\u2019re a mid to high handicap player, I think you\u2019d see great results switching to this. My drives straighten out a bit (it\u2019s not going to fix a slice or hook, but it\u2019ll help) and my distance improved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a class=\"aawp-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B078J43NHD?tag=gweek_end-20&amp;linkCode=ogi&amp;th=1&amp;psc=1\" title=\"Check the current price on Amazon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" data-aawp-product-id=\"B078J43NHD\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Callaway Golf 2018 Men s Rogue Driver Right Hand Synergy 50G Shaft Regular Flex 10.5 degrees\"><strong>Check the current price on Amazon<\/strong><\/a>.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let me know your thoughts and any questions you have.
