Before the X460, Callaway had a club called the Big Bertha. An interesting name for a club, but arguably no longer appropriate, as the X460 is bigger.

The "460" refers to the size of the club head, and is currently the maximum permissible size. Thus it has a six cc advantage over Bertha. Does it make a difference?

The X460 is not actually the first Calloway club to reach this maximum figure; that came with the Fusion FT-3. That club, however, is not for everyone, so the X460 has been introduced with the aim of tempting players who don't want to use the Fusion or who do but want to try an alternative. To this end, the details of the X460 contain lots of technology with impressive sounding names - CT/VFT face and Consistent Alignment Sole (is it me, or does that sound like an advertisement for an orthopedic shoe? Anyway).

One of the goals of this technology is to allow the player to line the club up properly every time they address the ball (this is the previously mentioned Consistent Alignment Sole). The body is made exclusively of titanium, and produces a different sound on impact than the FT-3 does. This could be a plus or minus point for players who have used the FT-3.

Players who have tested the X-460 have generally positive comments about it once they get used to handling it; is gets good comments for its length of shot and sound of impact (which will tell you when you have hit a good shot, or a less-than-good one). The consistent alignment sole seems to work well for some players and less well for others, so it is certainly recommended to test the club out first. On the more critical side, it is described by some users as somewhat unforgiving if you do not strike it properly; others, however, claim that it corrects their mishits which go comparatively straight.

Like most other clubs, it is recommended to try the X460 out before deciding on a purchase, but most users seem happy with the club.
