Wedges, however, probably aren't what you think of in conjunction with Callaway. But the company's lead golf club designer is a fellow named Roger Cleveland - the founder of Cleveland Golf and designer of many classic wedges, like the enduring 588 line. The X-Tour wedges are the third line of forged wedges he has designed for Callaway. Is the third time the charm?Callaway Golf built its position in the golf business on the strength of its Big Bertha woods. The company later became a force in the irons market, its Odyssey brand of putters is a top-seller, and its golf balls are gaining traction at retail.

But it was big news when Callaway released its Cleveland-designed Forged Wedges in 2002. Years in the making as tour prototypes, the wedges weren't carbon copies of Cleveland's 588 wedges as many people had expected. Instead, the simply titled Forged Wedges had rather small heads and a very rounded leading edge - both design elements that were meant to help the wedges get the ball out of nearly any lie. Roger Cleveland left his namesake company and joined Callaway Golf in 1996. He combined with Big Bertha inventor Richard C. Helmstetter on several designs, including the X-12 irons. The duo collaborated on the Big Bertha Tour Series wedges in 1997, which were cast from stainless steel and aluminum bronze, and the cult favorite X-14 Pro Series wedges in 2000.

Callaway and Roger Cleveland don't seem content to let the 588s and Vokey wedges rule the Darrell Survey. After winning over many tour pros and better amateurs last year with the forged X-Tour irons, Callaway has released the X-Tour wedges. They offer something both old and new in an attempt to offer both performance and confidence. I've played several rounds with a 58 degree X-Tour wedge, and here's what I found about how they look and how they play.
