My Review 

I've always liked the look of the FT-i series of drivers, I had a chance to buy an FT-iQ I-Mix driver (11*) with a permanently mounted UST Proforce HMOI shaft. The pros are:

1. very hot face,very good distance, good distance with an off-center hit.

2. Very straight, generally a slice turns into a fade but a slice is not impossible.

3. A very good feel on the sweet spot, not really very bad for a miss-hit off the sweet spot.

The cons are:

1. The sound, I realize this is a personal preference but I like a big sound from the driver, the Ft-iQ has a good but muted sound.

About me 

I'm 69, a male and have a swing speed of about 96 MPH, I generally shoot in the high 80's to low 90's. The Callaway FT-iQ I-Mix would seem to suit someone with hook / slice problem. The driven ball wants to go straight.

Would you recommend this to a friend? 

Yes
