A wedge that brings a sense of security and confidence. ?
Callaway “MACK DADDY CB Wedge” has gained popularity as a cavity wedge that can easily and easily attack the green. The successor model “CB Wedge” is attracting attention as a model that embodies “friendly wedge” by making full use of the latest technology. Three experts scored the company’s proud work.First, women’s pros under HS40m/sMisato Nishikawaconducted a trial evaluation.
“It feels like it’s coming off both grass and sand. The thickness of the grip is a concern.”
-What is your honest impression?
“As the name suggests, it is a cavity back, and it has a much gentler performance than the tour model wedge that mainly has a muscle back. The projected area when you address it and see it from above is not so large, but the sole width is wide, The fact that it responds well to missed shots is an element that many amateur golfers who do not want to compromise on appearance or ease of use.Although it is sold individually, it has the impression of a set model.The flow with other clubs I think it’s a wedge that can be handled gently as an extension of the irons without ignoring it.”
The slogan is “Highly safe and gentle functionality that dramatically increases confidence around the green.”
―How does it compare to the previous “MACK DADDY CB wedge”?
“I didn’t see a big difference, but if I had to pick one, it would be the change in the sole shape and the difference in grip. In the previous model, the sole shape was round, but in this model, the center is shaped like a mountain. By changing to a slightly V-shaped shape, even if it is a little dull, it slides smoothly on the grass, making it difficult for mistakes to occur.Swing through the grass without getting caught. I get the impression that it has risen.”

-Did you have a good feeling of coming out of the bunker?
“Yes. It was easy to hit even in bunkers, just like the Hanamichi, thanks to the shape of the sole. Even when I opened the face and shook it as if using bounce, the head came off as I wanted on the sand. Perhaps because of the influence of looking closely at the shape of the sole before the test shot, I naturally had the image of not getting stuck in the sand, and I was able to get the impression that the ball would come out more and the head would come out of the sand. However, it is a wedge that can be used even from sand, and you can feel the gentleness more than the previous one.”
High-strength and soft 431 stainless steel is used for the head material.
―How does it compare to the tour model in use?
“Currently, I use a TaylorMade Milled Grind MG3 wedge with a muscle back shape, but I didn’t really feel much of a difference. Yes, it gives the impression that it is easy to raise from any lie.It has a thick back face, but it has higher operability than I expected, and the performance of face management and spin control can be called the same.What is the sense of security that comes from the appearance of the cavity? On the contrary, I was very impressed with the sharpness that I mightn’t imagine from the outside, and I was able to enjoy the gap.”

-What are the disadvantages?
“It’s not a flaw, but I was a little concerned regarding the thickness of the stock grip. Most grips taper from the grip end to the shaft side, but this one is a little straighter. The shape is similar to Zundo.The right hand side is also thicker, so I guess it’s a shape that aims to reduce the feeling of power in the right hand during the swing.On the contrary, I want to use my right hand, so I bought it. In that case, I might have to buy a new grip (laughs), but I was very impressed with the clear message from the manufacturer that they included elements that might be automatically swung in these details. I was
Nishikawa said, “Even though the score is average, all the items are very high level.”
―For what kind of people?
“I think the main target is people who already use the company’s irons because of the set model-like performance and the grip that shows the commitment. People who already own the company’s irons and have 2-3 wedges. Those who want to have the same model, or those who have another model from the same company and want to add one more easy model, etc. It is more natural for Callaway fans to consider purchasing irons in the flow of irons than switches from other companies. However, players who have been using cavity irons for a long time even in other companies’ models and are worried regarding making a lot of mistakes with wedges with a muscle back structure recently may find hints for improving their scores, so please consider it. please look”
