Callaway Talks: Roger Cleveland on MD3 Wedges

Callaway Golf has seen a lot of success with their wedge offerings the past couple of years. The Mack Daddy 2, designed by Roger Cleveland, is a great wedge that provides great feel, spin and control. They’ve recently also introduced the PM (Phil Mickelson) Grind, one of the most extreme wedge designs in golf.

For 2015, Callaway Golf introduces the Mack Daddy (MD) 3 wedges which build on the success of the Mack Daddy 2. The MD3 features different grinds and groove patterns for specific turf conditions. This provides the versatility and selection you need to get up and down from anywhere. The C-GRIND is designed for firmer conditions and versatility around the green. The heel and toe relief allow for a number of shots, especially opening up the face and keeping the leading edge low. The S-GRIND is Callaway’s most versatile option. It’s great for a wide range of conditions (normal, soft or firm), shot types, and swings (moderate to sweeping attack angles). Finally, the W-GRIND features a slightly wider sole. It’s perfect for softer conditions or you come in with a steep angle to the ball. And it’s extremely playable out of all types of bunkers.

The MD3 Milled line has Progressive Groove Optimization – a 3 groove package precision milled into the face of these wedges that optimizes spin as you go up in loft. It creates a smoother spin transition from your irons to wedges. The 30V grooves in the Pitching and Gap Wedges are built for shots that require a steep angle into the ball. The 20V grooves in the sand wedges are designed for full shots and bunker shots. The wider 5V grooves in the lob wedges for better control for shots out of the rough and around the green.

Legendary Callaway wedge designer Roger Cleveland took Tour input and blended that with advanced CAD design. The result is a balanced wedge with a high toe profile and a semi-straight leading edge. The weight ports in the back of the wedge gave us the freedom to reposition the weight for better shot-making, especially out of deep rough. In the latest episode of Callaway Talks, hear from Roger Cleveland and Harry Arnett about the Mack Daddy 3 wedge.
