There’s a new player in town when it comes to golf clubs – the Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Ti 340 Mini Driver. This club falls between a driver and a 3-wood, offering golfers a compromise between distance potential and control. For amateur golfers looking to find the fairway off the tee, the mini driver may be a game-changer.
Golfers who struggle with wild misses off the tee often opt for a 3-wood as a secondary option. The shorter shaft makes it easier to control but sacrifices forgiveness with its smaller head size. The Paradym Ai Smoke Ti 340 Mini Driver offers a middle ground with its 340cc head, providing forgiveness while still allowing for greater distance potential than a 3-wood.
The design of the mini driver has evolved over the years, with Callaway leading the charge with their X Hot 3Deep model. Tour players have started to incorporate the mini driver into their setups, using it as a tee-only club for more accuracy off the tee. At the amateur level, the shorter shaft and larger head size of the 340 Mini Driver make it easier to swing and hit straighter compared to a traditional 3-wood.
The Paradym Ai Smoke Ti 340 Mini Driver features a titanium Ai Smart Face with tiny micro deflections to improve ball speed on mishits. The weight setup is customizable, with a 12-gram back weight for higher launch and spin, and a 4-gram front weight for lower launch and spin. Golfers can adjust the weights to tailor the club’s performance to their preferences.
The 340 Mini Driver comes in two lofts (11.5 and 13.5 degrees) and can be custom-ordered through Fairway Jockey with a variety of different shaft options. With a focus on control, forgiveness, and distance potential, the Paradym Ai Smoke Ti 340 Mini Driver is a versatile option for golfers looking to find the fairway with confidence. Whether on the Tour or at the amateur level, the mini driver is becoming a popular choice for golfers of all skill levels.
