I have a Ladies Callaway X460 Driver. I was told it was 14*. I went on the Callaway site and found that Callaway doesn't have an X460 Ladies 14* driver. Its either 10*, 11* or 15*. Since its not marked on the club head I was curious as to how you can tell?

Someone found the answer for me. I do have the 15* model. Thanks to Matt from the LG forum.

It helps if you look at the number on the bottom of the club. If it's between 7.5 and 15, that's probably the loft.

The paragraph I typed wasn't really that long was it? If you look to the middle of it you can reference where I said something to the effect that "The loft is not marked on the club head." You should really be able to see it. You quoted it in your post. If you need further help, let me know and I'll walk you through it.:D

Just to further clarify. The ladies Callaway X460 Drivers are in 10, 11, and 15 degree lofts. 10 and 11 are marked but the 15* does not state that it is 15*. Instead if you find on the sole "High Trajectory", then that is the 15* version. The link you supplied looks like the mens X460 in 10*, which is the one I myself use.

It's probably the 15 degree minus 1 degree of tolerance = 14 degree.
It would need to be measured on a gage to know for sure.
