GBB11

Great Big Bertha 11 Titanium Driver

Launched in January 2003, the much loved titanium driver has been reborn with a host of updated technology.

High COR technology, COR is a measure of how much energy is passed to your ball on impact,
clearly giving you the maximum potential distance.
However the limits have been set by the USPGA on this factor and Callaway are ensuring you will get the most form this club and still be within the law.

The head volume is now 380cc and combined with a large hitting area, makes this club forgiven and hot over a larger area of the face, the largest of any conforming USPGA driver in Callaway’s history.
So even if you hit the ball off the heel of the club you will still get as good result.

The loft can be bought  9,10,11,12

The 2 technologies S2H2 and Tru Bore give you better feel and performance because they move weight away from the hostel area and distribute it more evenly over the club face.
Consistent themes through user reviews about Callaway is the criticism of the shafts, with many substituting in a different make to get the kind of results they want.

User reviews
1.One of the best drivers around. It holds its own against the newer ones.
As a golfer I am always looking for more distance and less shot dispersion so I try different drivers. However after trying many drivers I still find myself going back to the GBB. The only thing is that the stock shaft is terrible as most OEM shafts that the major manufacturers put in.
Once you change the shaft it performs much better

2. With the OEM shaft, I am always hitting blocks with hard, or fast tempo swings. The shaft itself is not bad, it’s just not a good shaft for the GBB Driver, as it tends to lag too much.
It has been a dependable driver that has stood the test of time well, although it doesn't have the pop off the face that the BBB or VFT series do. Now that I've taken the OEM shaft out, I'm looking forward to good ball striking.

3. This club is the great deceiver. When I first got it I was hitting it long and reasonably straight, but after about a week I couldn't hit one straight at all. I got used to playing with a big draw which, on off days, was a hook or serious block.

Now I've lost all confidence off the tee and can't wait to change driver. It will be nice to hit from the fairway for a change. I'm switching to the Taylor Made 200 with stiff rifle shaft.

4. I noticed two things about the GBB that differed from the older warbird, what happens when you mis-hit it and how your swing speed affects the ball movement. I wish I could say I immediately started hitting 300 yard drives right down the middle like so many other golfers here (its funny I never see that many good golfers on the courses I play), but did notice that the larger club head made it easier to obtain clean contact with the ball and I dramatically reduced my squib shots that would shoot off about 50 yards left or right of the tee box. That being said, I was still hitting some fairly big slices and hooks on the range. I guess it just is not a miracle club that takes 10 strokes off your game after all.

The swing speed seemed to make the most difference to me. When I used my normal swing I battled my slices and hooks, but when I really slowed down my backswing I started getting a lot more consistent results
