Callaway Big Bertha Drivers: 1990-1999

In 1991, Callaway launched the Original Big Bertha Driver — a revelation in the golf equipment world. With its innovative design and large clubhead, it helped golfers hit farther and straighter. Simply put, it was the beginning of a legacy.

Fast forward to 1995, and Callaway introduced not one but two iterations: the Great Big Bertha and the Big Bertha WarBird drivers. The Great Big Bertha focused on forgiveness, while the WarBird was all about soaring distances.

In 1997, the Biggest Big Bertha Driver was born. While the head was still fairly small when compared to the modern drivers of today, this club looked huge alongside the competition on the shelves in the pro shop.

The turn of the century saw the arrival of the Great Big Bertha Hawk Eye Driver. Sleek, elegant, and efficiently designed, its unique tungsten gravity screw helped golfers achieve higher launch angles and more distance.

Callaway Big Bertha Drivers: 2000-2009

The sequel to a classic, the Great Big Bertha II, was introduced in 2002. The latest iteration brought improved technology, feel, and performance — it was a hit with both pros and amateur golfers alike.

2004 brought the Big Bertha Titanium Driver, a blend of strength and elegance in a lightweight head design. Its titanium construction was like a symphony of power and grace, helping golfers achieve longer and straighter drives.

In 2005, Callaway introduced the Big Bertha Titanium 454 and Fusion FT-3 Drivers. The 454 was all about size and power, while the Fusion FT-3 was a technological marvel, blending different materials for optimal performance.

The Big Bertha 460 Driver arrived in 2006, and it was all about maximizing size and forgiveness. With its 460cc clubhead, it served golfers of every skill level.

Callaway Big Bertha Drivers: 2010-2019

After an eight-year hiatus, 2014 was a banner year for Big Bertha, with four new drivers: the Big Bertha Driver, Big Bertha Alpha, Alpha 815, and V Series.

Each had its unique charm, from the Alpha’s adjustability to the lightweight design of the V Series. Ultimately, this meant there was a driver for every golfer.

2015 saw the return of the Great Big Bertha, along with the Bertha Mini 1.5 and Alpha 816. The Great Big Bertha fused classic design elements with modern club technology, while the Mini 1.5 was the compact, lively sibling. Finally, the Alpha 816 showed technical upgrades over the 815 released the previous year.

2017 was truly epic with the Great Big Bertha Epic, Epic Star, and Epic SZ Drivers. With the introduction of carbon fiber to the sole of the heads, these drivers had lighter and stiffer crowns for improved stability and performance off the tee.

Callaway Big Bertha Drivers: 2020-Present

The Big Bertha B21 Driver arrived in 2020, and it was all about helping golfers fight the dreaded slice. With its unique design, it was like a golf therapist, helping players overcome their challenges and enjoy the game more.

And here we are in 2023 with the latest Great Big Bertha Driver. It’s like a wise elder, carrying the legacy of the past while embracing the future. It’s a symbol of Callaway’s commitment to innovation, performance, and the love of the game.

PROS

+ Very lightweight
+ High launching
+ Fast and forgiving

CONS

– High price tag

“This Big Bertha Driver recipe is one that we’ve refined now, and that was a different way to approach how to kill a slice. In this version, we’ve reduced spin for the player that swings down and across the ball, with a little bit lower and more forward CG positioning.”

Brian Williams, VP of Callaway R&D

Final Thoughts

From the original icon in 1991 to the latest marvel in 2023, the Callaway Big Bertha Drivers have been a constant companion to golfers around the world.

They’ve evolved, innovated, and inspired, each one offering something unique.

Today, they’re not just golf clubs — they’re an important part of golf history.
