If your on the look out for a new lob wedge then you HAVE to demo the Callaway X tour with the Mack Daddy grooves. (Make sure it's got MD writen on the hosel). I know that Callaway doesn't spring to mind straight away when thinking of wedges. They're probably way down the list behind Vokeys, Cleveland, Mizzys, Tm's & maybe even Ping's but just give it a try & you won't be disappointed.
I got one for Christmas of my son as a replacement for my 56 & 60 degree Vokey spin milled's. To be honest I was expecting to sacrifise some spin in favor of a little feel and aslo completeing the full Callaway bag, but after 3 rounds I have found that the feel is better (imo) and the spin has definatly increased for everybody to see. My regular playing partner asked if I was playing my chip/pitch shots any differently to normal because he couldn't believe the amount of spin I was producing. I have played some awesome lob and pitch shots this week and actually don't mind short siding myself because I get to use my Mack Daddy.
I'm not a Callaway rep although I wouldn't mind if they had a vacancee in my area but if your thinking of a new lob wedge then give it a try and you will be suprised and may even put one in your bag.
