I picked this club up after buying a brand new Callaway C4. I tried and tried to add some consistency to the C4 but never found it. I then went to the smaller headed Steel Head Plus and really started to hit it well. I always wanted to go back to the C4 because of the pleasing looks and the bigger head, but the Steel Head kept calling my name. It is VERY consistant, and pleasingly long. The closed face is perfect for those who struggle to keep the slice in tact. Along with the strong grip and closed face, my slices are few and far between. All I can say is that the small headed driver is the driver for me. See ya later C4.

I have to say I enjoyed this driver a whole lot. I have always had difficulty with big headed drivers. I agree with some of the past reviews which state that this driver helps to hone one's swing. In fact, I used to not be able to hit the driver at all but the Steelhead Plus really "trained" my driver swing. However, I am going to relunctantly retire it because it really does suffer a bit in the distance department when compared to the titanium drivers. My cousin, who uses a R7, consistently outdrives me by 30 yards. Just to experiment, I went to the driving range with my cousin and asked him to hit with the Steelhead Plus and it turned out that his distance was similar to mine. In summary, great great driver for control but I am going to replace it with a "smallish" Taylormade 360XD.

Never used it

I just picked up a Steelhead Plus after hitting a S2H2 for years. I have the steel shaft and i havent ever hit a club as far as this one. I am consistantly 300 plus. I think these guys on their reviews may have a problem with their swing. this club is easy to work fades and draws with. i am very impressed with this club and hope to shoot in the 70's with the new addition to my bag. I guess I am old school, but when you have name brand quality clubs in your bag and you can't hit them, it is no the club.

Customer Service

From past experience, Callaway has excellent customer service.

I've had some el-cheapo huge headed graphite shafted drivers and never felt comfortable with the way the felt so light (probably why I never spent much on a driver). Saw the Steelhead on Callawaygolfpreowned.com for a bargain ($39) and snapped it up with high hopes. I'm much more comfortable with the heavier head and shaft - lightweight steel is still much heavier than graphite and feels better in my hands. The extra swingweight added by the longer shaft (+1") helps to keep my swing smooth and we all know how much that helps when it comes to playing good shots. Not sure how much I like the "TINK" sound at impact, but sound is hardly a factor a golf club should be judged on (C4 anybody?). Feel is very solid off the face, not soft like some of the 'trampoline faced' drivers I've tried. Put a good swing on this one and watch it go.

Great driver. I like the smaller head and substantial weight. The heavier head allows me to know exactly where the club is throughout my swing. I thought the days of hitting 300 were over, however this year I am averaging 275 yds per drive, with many over 300. The ball flight is perfect for my game. As others have mentioned, this club produces a great sound at impact. I love the look of the club and visually sets up very nice over the ball. I think this club is for a specific type of golfer and swing. I do not like the large head drivers, I feel like I am swinging Gallaghers sledge hammer which throws off my tempo. This club is perfect for me.

Decent driver, fairly accurate, fairly long, and produces a nice ball flight (low, penetrating, with a good rise). Not the best club I've hit, but pretty darn good. As opposed to titanium heads, has more control for working the ball (you need a pretty high swing speed to do so) I have read many reviews on many drivers and have come to the following conclusion after hitting most of them: It's usually not the club, it's the swing. This has never been more true than with the Steelhead Plus. If you can't hit this driver, you need to accept the fact the you probably need lessons because there are flaws in your swing. Most people are using HUGE titanium drivers (which I like to refer to as "cheater" clubs) because they have a large target area which corrects mis-hits. If you have a good swing, you should be able to hit this as far as the aforementioned "cheater clubs" with better accuracy and more control. Sorry to vent on about this, but it really gets to me when people blame the club for poor results. And although there may be exceptions, it is not so with this club.

I bought this driver with the Uniflex steel shaft after getting the 3 wood and absolutely loving it. I have been testing it extensively over the past few months against the Taylor Made 200 Steel 10.5* with the rifle steel shaft. It was a very tough choice, but I've decided to keep the Callaway in the bag. There's no question that the Taylor Made 200 is more forgiving and more accurate. If you're a long bomber but need to hit more fairways, then it's your club. It goes high but straight. I need the distance, however. I hit a high ball already, with drives that average around 210, with the odd 240 yard shot when I catch it right. The Steelhead + is a lot longer (by at least 20 yards on average, and 40 yards when you hit it absolutely perfectly), and delivers a much more penetrating trajectory which I really need. It's not the most forgiving club, however. The head is small and heavy by today's standards, so I've found that I need a smooth and easy swing in order to make good contact. Not a bad thing, really. The uniflex steel shaft feels great, and the sound from the clubface is beautiful when you hit it just right. I can tell from the sound how well I've hit the ball - the more subdued the "tink", the better the shot. I used to hit a slice quite often, but rarely do with this club - most of my shots are now straight pulls left and long, with the mistakes going further left. It's a shot pattern I can work with.

From past experience I can tell you the Callaway's customer service is second to none.

I have mixed feelings with the club. If you want a club that will REALLY let you know if you screwed up in the least, then this driver is for you. Not forgiving in the least. That does help your game, though. Also, I have found this club to be fairly long, but nothing phenomenal. The club looks great at setup and gives an awesome sound and feel when hit properly--otherwise feel is like a sledge hammer. Speaking of which, this is not the lightest club (which I like). You can shape shots with it, as long as you hit it EXACTLY how it needs to be hit--I mentioned the lack of forgiveness. Overall a pretty good club. It will definitely make you a better, more pure hitter (or drive you insane). This club would be good for anyone looking to get a quality club at half the price of most "top-of-the-line" drivers. If you have the money to spend on something else, then don't get this club. There are better drivers out there.

I'm 15 years old and I saw this club laying in a friends bag, so I asked if I could buy it for 65 bucks. First time i hit it, the wind resistence is better than a 400cc driver, and i can get a faster club speed. But im not getting the distance I can usually get with my Taylor Made 360. Good club for a beginner to an intermidiate golfer.

I am a 13 year old playing for about a year. At first I had some problem hitting this club, but then after going to the range a couple of times I got used to it. I recommend this club to everybody.
