Callaway introduces Mack Daddy 3 Milled Wedges C
allaway has announced the launch of its new Mack Daddy 3 Milled Wedges offering grinds and groove packages for every condition, every swing and every golf shot.
Craſted and shaped by Callaway’s Master Wedge Designer, Roger
Cleveland, the new MD3 Milled Wedges offer a choice of three different grinds (S-Grind, W-Grind and C-Grind) and a Progressive Groove Optimisation system which employs three different groove patterns to increase spin as loſt increases, setting a new benchmark in versatility and performance. Available in either Satin Chrome or a new Matte Black finish, all MD3
Wedges have been engineered with milled Mack Daddy grooves and laser micro grooves for the ultimate in control. Commenting on the new wedges, Roger Cleveland said: “By increasing
each groove’s wall angle and therefore the aggressiveness, as you move higher in loſt we can now give players better control and the ability to stop the golf balls more efficiently. “Typically, a player will create their most spin with around a 50° wedge
and their spin will then drop off as they go higher in loſt. However, thanks to Progressive Groove Optimisation, our MD3 Wedges generate greater spin as the loſt increases, giving maximum control when and where the golfer needs it.” Three unique sole grinds are offered to match perfectly to swing styles
and typical conditions a golfer may encounter: Normal conditions: The S-Grind is our most versatile, all-purpose grind
and shows its utility across a variety of conditions and swing types. Soſt conditions: The W-Grind has a slightly wider sole and is perfect for the
golfer playing in slightly soſter conditions or who has the tendency to come in steep with their swing. Great out of the sand, the W-Grind suits a variety of swings from more steep to more sweep, creating a moderate divot pattern. Firm conditions: The C-Grind is designed for firmer conditions and
versatility around the greens. The heel and toe relief of this grind allows for a number of shots, especially opening up the face and keeping the leading edge low.
