We review the new Callaway Mack Daddy Forged wedges with Roger Cleveland at the PGA Show

By GolfTEC Digital

It’s not every day when you get to talk to legendary clubmaker, Roger Cleveland.

But it’s hardly any day when the man himself – THE sole person virtually responsible for modern wedge design – takes you through his new creations as you product test just a few feet away.

That’s why we’ll call GolfTEC’s Jon Levy one lucky guy, as Cleveland graciously gave him and GolfTEC the scoop on Callaway’s new Mack Daddy Forged wedges at PGA Show Demo Day.

Take a look at the features of these wedges as highlighted by Cleveland in the video below, which include a brand new groove placement, refined leading edge and softer, enhanced feel a forging provides.
