    But the logo on their wedges is NOT a shamrock. It’s a four-leaf clover. An entire marketing campaign about the Irish and St Patrick’s Day, based on the wrong symbol! Looks like Callaway has been made aware of this mistake – last night they changed the name of the clubs to Lucky Clover instead of Shamrock!

    Gimmicks to sell bad products wow.. You should have made a forged version and it might would have worked. I have played Callaway wedges from the beginning, the X models are legendary!! But the MD3’s are the worse wedges ever. For the first time ever I bought a different brand wedges this year..I hope you fired who ever decided not to do forged this year.

    Similar feedback from my playing partner. Loves the shape but hates the clicky feel and jumpy face. Forged Cally wedges have always felt great. Not this model though.

New Level launches new 480-DB irons, blending performance and forgiveness

Published

on

New Level has been making some really good golf equipment since the company started up in 2018. Offering irons that are more geared towards the better player, precision has been a fundamental philosophy for New Level in creating irons and wedges.

The 480 line of irons has been the flagship of the brand, and the newest member of that team is the 480-DB iron that is now open to pre-orders. A new cavity design is what the whole 480 line is about, and the 480-DB takes advantage of that with added ball speed and a larger sweet spot.

For players who require their irons to offer the best feel, rest assured the DB is a fully forged (from 1020 carbon steel) one-piece golf club. No multi-piece, hollow design with this iron.

While the 480-DB is the next generation of the popular 902-OS, New Level didn’t follow the current trend in golf by chasing distance with the new iron. They actually weakened the lofts on the 480-DB with the spec sheet showing a 33-degree 7-iron and 45-degree pitching wedge. These lofts allow the DB to have less offset while still offering consistent distance off the face.

A traditional design was also at the forefront of the new irons to make sure that golfers with an eye for detail can look down at them with confidence that they will perform under any condition.

 

A weight low in the back cavity will allow their master club builders to dial in the perfect weight for the golfer, no matter the length or shaft being used. New Level believes that the new 480-DB is one of the most forgiving one-piece forged irons on the market today. A pre-worn leading edge on the sole should get through the turf quickly and with reduced digging for better turf interaction.

You can pre-order the New Level 480-DB right now on the New Level website.
