A massive 50 grams of discretionary weight has been created using a carbon fiber body and a larger CT/VFT Titanium cup face.
- Big Bertha 460 Driver - The Big Bertha 460 Driver is 460cc's of titanium innovation that makes hitting golf's toughest club a little easier. The Big Bertha 460 Driver is designed close to the legal dimensional limit set by the United States Golf Association and the R&A.
