Callaway has become an industry leader for driver manufacturers worldwide, developing a range of clubs designed to meet the needs of all golfers. The Callaway Rogue ST Max driver line is just the next generation of premium-performing drivers from which golfers of all skill levels can benefit. The new Rogue ST drivers all have some of the same technology, with each iteration of the club providing more benefits specific to a set of golfers.
Low-handicap golfers look for a driver that hit certain spin numbers without causing the ball to balloon out of control in any direction. High handicappers look for a driver that allows maximum forgiveness and can cure their miss, which is a big slice for most. But, regardless of which category you fall into, the Callaway Rogue ST drivers will have a model that is perfect for your game.
Top 3 Features of the Rogue ST Line
No matter which head model you choose, all the Callaway Rogue ST Max drivers will have technology designed to benefit everyone. From construction to weights to the Jailbreak speed frame, these drivers are designed to make you a better golf ball driver.
1. High Moment of Inertia Speed Cartridge
The speed cartridge in the back of the club is designed to increase ball speed and maximize forgiveness on all drives. The cartridge can be modified to certain weights in each model, with the highest modification being a 26g weight. The weight is located low and deep in the driver's head, influencing a higher launch and allowing the weight to spread forgiveness across the entire clubface.
2. Artificial Intelligence
Callaway utilizes Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) to design two technologies: the Jailbreak Speed Frame and the Flash Face technology. The Flash Face lowers spin numbers, helping all skill-level golfers hit numbers that maximize distance and limit big misses. It also helps to spread the sweet spot, giving players increased forgiveness. The Jailbreak Speed Frame creates more horizontal and torsional face stability, meaning golf balls will come off more in line with the target line's location. This will give you the best combination of distance and forgiveness, giving you maximum speed while maintaining exceptional levels of forgiveness.
3. Titanium Unibody Construction
The unibody construction of the clubhead allows weight to be distributed in ways it has been unable to before. It allows each head to be slightly modified to fit the needs of golfers in a specific handicap range. It also allows for high launch (relative to what golfers have seen previously). Combined with the triaxial carbon crown, these drivers are the lightest, fastest, and most forgiving Callaway has developed.
Callaway Rogue ST Max Drivers
Callaway released four head models to consumers within the Rogue ST Max line. Each clubhead offers slightly different benefits to golfers, allowing a wider range of golfers to claim they play the Rogue ST Max drivers with efficiency and skill. Let's run through the models, from most beneficial to high handicappers to the clubhead intended for highly skilled, low handicap, and Tour-level players.
1. Callaway Rogue ST Max D
Are you a high-handicap player who struggles with a ball that slices way off the target line? Then this is the driver for you. A draw-biased face allows for counteracting spin that will tighten up misses that slice too far. Off-center strikes are met with high forgiveness and ball speeds that are not too penal. Golfers will see a driver performance meant to make golf fun but with limited abilities for shot shaping on the course.
Check out some of the features below:
- Draw-biased Face
- Up to 23g for tungsten speed cartridge
- Mitsubishi Tensei stock shafts
- Increased accuracy
2. Callaway Rogue ST Max
The Rogue ST Max is the choice for more levels of golfers than any other in the line. High launching, explosive ball speeds, and great forgiveness are the most appealing features of this clubhead. This driver is great for golfers with moderate and high swing speeds. Everything about the Rogue ST Max is geared towards allowing players in all skill levels to hit bombs down the middle of the fairway. So if you are stuck between models, and cannot decide, err on the side of caution and go for this model.
Check out some of the features below:
- Slight draw-biased face
- Up to 26 grams in the speed cartridge
- Highest MOI (Moment of Inertia) head
3. Rogue ST Max LS
The LS in the name stands for low spin, which better players will seek if they are trying to launch the ball further down the fairway. This driver should have the lowest ball flight and will have a neutral bias.
Check out some of the features below:
- Neutral bias to the head
- Lower ball flight
- Up to 24g head cartridge
4. Rogue ST Triple Diamond LS
Much like the previous model, this driver is meant to have a low spin and go far! However, this is not for the faint of heart. Players with elite skill hitting the center of the sweet spot will love this driver. It is workable, slightly more compact at 450cc, and has a slight fade bias.
Check out some of the features below:
- Tour preferred head shape and size
- Neutral to fade bias
Finding the Best Callaway Rogue ST Driver for You
Think about what your average drive looks like. Is it consistently ballooning into the air and falling off with a slice? If so, you need to consider one of the drivers with a draw bias to help negate that spin. Check out the Triple Diamond head if you are an elite player and like a more traditional, compact shape.
