Distance chambers added to give better players more yards

Callaway introduce Alpha 816 DBD driver and fairways

The new Alpha 816 DBD (Double Black Diamond) driver offers extreme distance for expert players.

Choose a neutral or draw ball flight then set the Gravity Core up or down for maximum speed.

Features & Benefits

Extreme distance from dual distance chambers

If you’re looking for a neutral or draw ball flight to work the ball with more control, pick the left or right chamber.

It offers a combination of extreme distance and shot-shaping control for the best players.

Ball Speed From Next Gen R*MOTO Technology 

The R*MOTO Technology provides the structure for a thinner face, leading to high ball speeds on centre hits and off-centre hits too.

A deeper face, traditional shape and a low centre of gravity

A deeper face, a traditional shape and a low centre of gravity to reduce spin while still offering forgiveness and workability.

The shape of the crown, the open face angle, and the matte black finish with no distractions should suit better players’ eyes when they’re standing over the ball.

OptiFit Adjustability 

You can tune the driver to the settings you want with the 8-way adjustability. You can add loft, take loft off or adjust the lie angle to fit your swing.

The Big Bertha Alpha 816 fairway woods are also made with better players in mind.
