Callaway Forged Chrome Wedges

Designed by the world-famous clubmaker Roger Cleveland and forged by Callaway, the Forged Wedges harness Cleveland’s design expertise and Tour player feedback.


Phil Mickelson and Ernie Ells play Callaway golf clubs.

Forged from soft 1020 carbon steel. Get soft feel with a precision-milled face and grooves that channel away water and debris. On top of that, you get great shot-to-shot consistency.

Traditional Tour size and shape exposes more face area to the ball through contact, giving you great confidence around the green.

The Tour-inspired sole grind is ground down to lower the leading edge, especially when the face is open for your delicate flop shots or high lobs. The trailing edge is beveled so the club sits square when open.

Sergio Garcia uses a belly putter at PGA Championship

In a press conference at the PGA Championship, Sergio Garcia says he will use the same belly putter he used in the British Open. Sergio Garcia has been know for many years as one of the best ball strikers on the PGA Tour though he putting has let him down, especially on Sundays of Majors. For the first three rounds Sergio used the belly putter to exceptional precision as he tool a big lead into Sunday. Though like many other major tournaments before them Sergio fell short on Sunday at the British Open.

Sergio at the British Open used the Rossa Corzina belly putter from Taylor Made. I haven't found the putter available yet for consumers.

Though now at Southern Hills, Sergio Garcia has another chance to will a major and see if the belly putter helps him have ice in his veins the next 10 foot put to win.

No major champion in golf has ever used the belly putter so Sergio stands to be the first if he wins.
