Callaway launches new Mack Daddy 4 Tactical wedges

Published

6 years ago

on

Earlier this year, Callaway released its Mack Daddy 4 wedges, which were armed with Groove-In-Groove Technology and “Nip-It” grooves to provide more spin. Now, industry legend Roger Cleveland and Callaway R&D, with heavy influence from Tour pro input, have launched the brand new Mack Daddy 4 Tactical Wedge.

The Mack Daddy 4 Tactical features a limited edition Black Tour Issue Shaft and Lamkin Tactical Grip. The Mack Daddy 4 Tactical also features a sharp new Tactical PVD finish, Black PVD Face and black medallions for an aggressive look.

According to Callaway, The Mack Daddy 4 is the most rigorously tested and Tour-validated wedge that they have ever offered. The new wedge is said to provide more compact shape, straighter leading edge, tighter leading-edge radius and slightly more offset compared to their Mack Daddy 3 range. All features were included to provide maximum spin and control from tight lies.

The Mack Daddy 4 Tactical is available in both Callaway’s S and X grind options. Here is a rundown of what both grinds will provide, according to Callaway

  • S-Grind: “Medium-width sole with slight chamber at the back and moderate heel relief to keep the leading edge low through impact, promoting solid contact on open-faced shots. 10º bounce.”
  • X-Grind: “The newest grind features a narrow, high-bounce crescent sole, with the low point near the front. Excellent for moderate-to-steep attack angles and medium-to-soft course conditions. 12º bounce.”

Available lofts include  50, 52, 54, 56, 58 and 60-degree options, all of which will be available for both right and left-handed players. The Mack Daddy 4 Tactical will be in stores from the 21st of Sept. and will cost $179.99.

Callaway will be donating a portion of the proceeds for the Mack Daddy 4 Tactical to the Birdies For The Brave Foundation, a national military outreach initiative. All active, reserve, retired, and military veterans are eligible for a 15 percent discount on the new release from Callaway, which will be available here.

    I don’t care for the tactical grooves, the strategic grooves seem to work better for me.
