Callaway Big Bertha V Series driver unveiled

Callaway has launched what it is calling its ‘Fastest Bertha Yet’, the new Callaway Big Bertha V Series driver, which is built from lightweight materials and with better aerodynamics to help you increase your ball speeds for more distance

The new Callaway Big Bertha V Series driver, which is also joined by a Callaway V Series fairway wood, features a lightweight design at just 290g.

This lighter club helps you create more clubhead speed, which in turn creates more ball speed to increases your distance.

The new driver, which will sit alongside the Big Bertha and Big Bertha Alpha, also has a new aerodynamic shaping that lowers drag through the entire swing to give you faster swing speeds, which again will boost your distance potential.

A Forged Composite material in the classic looking crown is also lighter, leading to maximum clubhead speed, while the Hyper Speed Face returns to deliver fast ball speeds across the face.

Like previous generations, Callaway’s adjustable OptiFit hosel from lets you choose from a combination of eight different loft and lie angles to find your optimised trajectory and shot shape.

The £299 Callaway Big Bertha V Series driver will come in 9°, 10.5° and 13.5° options, with the ultra lightweight (42g) Mitsubishi Bassara shaft fitted as standard.

The driver will be available to buy from Friday September 12.
