To be frank, the Callaway X Series Jaws Chrome Wedges offer you the short game that you have been looking for. Maximum Spin and the ability to create shots that you didn't think were possible.
Despite the nod to Peter Benchley's classical shark tale, the teeth of these wedgeshave been blunted somewhat, though they do promise to offer some bite on the greens. Inspired by its Tour Authentic X-Prototype irons, the wedges have a fairly standard Tour wedge head shape, only the back of the head features an x-shaped muscleback spreading the weight to the top and the bottom of the clubhead.
Chrome finish is preferred by better players even though the overall look might be a little over-complicated for those used to more streamlined wedges. But you don't see the weighting system at address, so no harm done.
The purest way to experience playing the Old Course, however, requires a leap of faiththe Daily Ballot. The Daily Ballot is one of the great traditions in golf, and about half of all available starting times are awarded via the ballot.
The C Grind makes it extremely versatile from most lies and especially good from bunkers and heavy rough. The lower leading edge makes it relatively easy to nip the ball off tighter lies. Heavy, yet well balanced head feel and soft carbon face offers bags of feel on full and half-shots when using Tour standard ball. Checks up on crisply-struck shots with effortless backspin.
At last, the X Series Jaws Wedges produce maximum spin and versatility for the short game results you've always dreamed of. Plus, the forged carbon steel provides Tour-level feel. Each wedge is available in either the Soft Milky Chrome or Dark Vintage finish. Also choose from steel or graphite shafts to match your irons.
