WYNTK
If Callaway’s latest Big Bertha had a theme song it might be “Make Every Shot Your Best with Our Easiest to Hit Clubs” followed by a catchy tune entitled “We Kept the Price the Same.” Far and away the largest golf equipment company Topgolf Callaway Brands (NYSE: MODG) is taking advantage of their technology and pricing leadership specifically with the update of the iconic Big Bertha name.

The driver has a forward center of gravity low in head for an easy launch and reduced side spin which will help those of us with a slice and additional weight has been added to the heel to promote a draw flight pattern. Big Bertha Fairway Woods were also designed for straighter ball flight plus added ball speed for more distance.

The hybrids of the family have a larger head, ideal for those who prefer hitting fairway woods rather than long irons. Tungsten weighting promotes a high launch and there slightly more head offset to mitigate a tendency to slice. Big Bertha irons have the expected stronger lofts, but placement of the tungsten weighting still promotes a high ball flight a characteristic average golfers will appreciate.
