Another innovative design feature with Fusion Technology is the ability to optimize the center of gravity location in the club head. Because Callaway is capable of properly positioning the center of gravity, there is also the opportunity for longer distance. In addition, the club head can be optimized for a draw, neutral or fade bias to offset golfer shot tendencies.

The development and creation of Callaway FT drivers such as is quite complex. A carbon composite club head creation process begins with fine strands of black carbon fiber, woven together. Each strand is extremely thin, approximately one tenth the size of a human hair. These fibers are combined with epoxy resin and a carbon pre-preg is formed. When many of the pre-preg composites are put together into a driver body shaped tool, the process continues. Each piece is added to the tool in a different direction, allowing more strength to be created as the fibers harden. As the hardening is taking place, weights are put into the internal areas for maximum center of gravity and balance. With the sole and the crown tools being put together and heated in an oven, the materials bind together to form a tough shell.
