CALLAWAY FORGED VINTAGE £95

DESIGN

Callaway has produced one of the most classic looking wedges around so regardless of how they play, they're sure to attract plenty of interest. The head is fairly small and may put off those after a forgiving strike.

TECH TALK

Forged from 1020 carbon steel for a soft feel, the heads are compact to offer versatility from all lies. The extra feel should really help with judging distances.

GM VERDICT

For low handicappers, this is an attractive looking, solid performing club - as with any top wedge, control was its best performance feature. Anyone after a bit of spin control should definitely give this a try.
