Callaway Big Bertha V-Series Fairway Woods
Callaway’s new V-Series fairway woods are designed with “Speed Optimized Technology,” making them lighter and more aerodynamic to promote more ball speed and distance.
The fairway woods use the same Hyper Speed Face design that helped Callaway’s X2 Hot and X2 Hot Pro fairway woods receive top billing in our 2014 Gear Trials: Best Fairway Woods list, and also have a high-launch design that make thems one of Callaway’s most forgiving fairway woods. Like Callaway’s other fairway woods, they use the company’s Modern Warbird Sole Plate to improve turf interaction.
A Callaway Big Bertha V-Series 5 Wood at address.
The V-Series fairway woods are available in 3, 5, 7 and 9 woods, as well as in a “Heavenwood” that has 20.5 degrees of loft and measures 43 inches. That gives it more loft than a 5 wood, but it has a longer shaft that can help golfers hit their shots farther.
The fairway woods come stock with a Mitsubishi Rayon 2nd Generation Bassara E-Series 52 shaft in light, regular and stiff-flex options and sell for $239.99 each.

Coolest thing for sale in the GolfWRX Classifieds (5/13/24): Full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs
At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals that all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.
It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.
Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, there is a listing for a full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs.
From the seller: (@CaymanS): “During the year of recovery from leg surgery that never quite healed, I was bored. One thing led to another, and I ended up gradually building/acquiring the individual pieces to complete a set of “Tiger Slam” clubs. They are what Tiger played to win 4 consecutive majors, which nobody has ever done. This is not an exact replica of course, but something close that fit me to play a few times per year and experience what Tiger did. But my bad leg, 4 shoulder tears, and age prevents me from the ball-striking needed to enjoy these to their fullest. They may not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially since the driver and fairway shafts are regular flex and most players good enough to play these will need to change them, but it’s not a perfect world. I am not a historian on this stuff, but my research indicates these are the same models Tiger used, with slightly different specs to fit me.
Full set $1,600, or…
…a donation for a Pro Kids fundraiser, or…
Driver: $70
Fairway: $250
Irons: $1,100
Wedges: $100
Putter: $350″

Anyone hear rumors of another Callaway line expected to come out shortly, after this line? I heard photos are already online.

I did a range demo of the 3-wood last week and didn’t like it. I didn’t get any pop at all off the face. I also hit the SLDR and G30 3-woods and liked both of them better. The SLDR was a little tougher to control but when you dialed it in, it was excellent.
The G30 was the best of the one’s that I tried. Easy to hit, nice adjustability. I haven’t made a purchase yet and will try a few more.
The Callaway was the worst by far…not sure why because the X-Hot is a beast.

I’m crushing it 250-260 off the deck and off the tee with a stock stiff shaft. Maybe the mid-kick shaft isn’t for you though.

They’re out now. I just received my Heavenwood yesterday. I’m taking it out this weekend for a test drive.

I totally agree. Callaway is horrible considering they have Phil. I went to the Callaway store in Las Vegas looking to buy wedges and the sales man told me I could order them. They don’t stock them… It’s a callaway only store.

Totally agree left handed golfers not well catered for by Callaway, ping are much better for lefties. Like the look of these but I notice there are no pro versions they all have square faces, and not keen on the stock shaft, but I like the sole and the shape of the head looks good.
