2008 Callaway Big Bertha Irons
July 17th, 2010 | Golf Ball Driver, Product Review, golf clubs
When it comes to golf, there are two names that are synonymous with power – and they belong to the same company. Callaway and Big Bertha are names that golfers trust when it comes to hitting the ball longer, and getting better results. Although they are best known for their drivers, the company also makes irons, and boy do they know how to make them. If you’re already a fan of Callaway, or if you’re looking for a solution to your short game, these clubs deserve your attention.
The clubs are all stainless steel and have some of the best grips we have ever seen. Callaway claims they are the most forgiving irons on the market and for many golfers, that is just what the doctor ordered. Like their drivers, the main selling point for the irons is that they will help you hit farther and straighter, and just like the drivers, that is exactly what they do.
The irons have what Callaway has called IBrids, meaning that they are a hybrid club that is not as oddly shaped as a traditional iron, and much easier to handle. The angles on the clubs are quite low and very deep, allowing you to get right up under that ball. For those that have difficulty with this technique, these irons are literally a godsend. The long irons are incredibly forgiving, and we also found the short and medium irons to be just as good.
Callaway also fiddled with the weight and balance of the irons to make them more stable and capable of helping you reach longer distances. It takes a little getting used to, especially if you have played golf for years. Since the balance is a little different, we highly recommend using these on the practice range first, before you actually get out there on the course. You’ll save a lot of frustration and you’ll have a better chance of breaking them in.
Even though these are technically hybrid clubs, it’s important not to let that fact interfere with your swing. Play these just like you would any other iron and you will notice a big difference. If you try to compensate for the different feel, you may be a bit disappointed in your results. These aren’t clubs you can just pick up and play with right out of the box, but once you get the feel, they are incredible.
We recommend these clubs to beginners looking to find a way to improve their scores quickly. Intermediate and advanced players can also benefit from the new weighting and the angle of the face of the clubs. These are a great move forward for the company and it will be interesting to see how the company continues to innovate in this market.
For fans of Callaway drivers, these clubs are a natural and well with the price. While it may take a few weeks to get up to full speed, you’ll be glad you put in the effort to get there.
