Fusion FT-3 vs. new X460 driver

FYI for any Callaway driver fans: I had a chance to play 9 in Orlando with the Fusion FT-3 (which is my regular driver) and the new X460 driver both in the bag. I thought the FT-3 would be more forgiving, and the X460 would be longer.

I was half-right. The FT-3 is a bit more forgiving, though the X460 hung with it. But on my best swings with both, the FT-3 was noticeably longer. On holes where I hit two drives, the FT-3 was longer every time. On the last hole, I made two very good driver swings trying to hit a draw on a dogleg left par-4. The X460 turned over exactly like I wanted it to and rolled out to 285 yards, middle of the fairway. I re-teed with the FT-3, tried to make the same swing ... and hit a tight draw that almost carried past where my first drive landed, rolling out to 315 yards. [Epilogue: I hit a 56-degree X-Tour wedge to 8 feet, then missed the birdie putt with the new Tri-Ball SRT putter. Grr. ]

I was pretty surprised by the distance difference. The X460 sure isn't short, but the FT-3 is even longer than I thought (for my swing).

The specs: FT-3 9-degree neutral with Aldila NVS 55-S, X460 9-degree with Fujikura stiff shaft.

One other impression: The face area on the X460 is considerable bigger than the FT-3. The FT-3 has a deep face that is not very wide, and there's a lot of volume used to make room for the internal weights. The X460 has a deep face that is much wider, and the club in general looks bigger at address than the FT-3.
