In our forums, our members have been discussing the number of different brands currently in their bag. WRXer ‘tangojay’ kicks off the thread with his setup:

“Driver: Cobra F-8 (just switched from Callaway XR-16). 3 & 5 woods: Callaway XR-16. 4 Hybrid: Cleveland Mashie. 5-SW : PING G-700. Lob Wedge: Cleveland CG-15. Putter: Byron Experimental. Ball: Kirkland 3-Piece. Bag: Bag-Boy”

And our members have been sharing the different brands that have made it into their bag in our forums.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

dbdors: “5, Callaway, TM, Tour Edge, Cleveland and Titleist (SC). But putters vary between the SC, Evnroll or PXG.”
laztjc4: “Up to 6. Mizuno driver, Cobra 3wood, Callaway hybrid and lob wedge, Hogan irons, Ping gap and sand wedge, Titleist SC putter.”
ChipNRun: “It’s a battle between Callaway and Tour Edge (see FWs for how tight it is). My putter is mostly Ping for the past 15 years, be it an early Ping Pal, a 2011 version of the B60 or my Sigma G Tyne. Only break was a two-year jaunt with a Slotline SL-583F. Cobra has held down the hybrid slots for several years. And I must confess, the Cobra FlyZ Driver and 3-4W felt awfully good then I tried them.”
shortgame85: “I started with an all Callaway setup. Then Titleist, then mixed. Today, I carry mostly Ping, two Callaway fairway woods, Titleist wedge and putter.”
belephant: “6. PING driver, Titleist hybrids, Mizuno irons, Callaway wedges, Bettinardi putter, Bridgestone ball.”
AUTIGER07: “It’s 3 or 4 depending on the putter I go with. 3 – Titleist / Mizuno / Nike. If I go with the Black Lab that day, it’s 4.”
AllSkillz15: “8. Driver- Callaway Epic Flash. 5 Wood- Cobra F9. 4 hybrid- Ping G410. 5 hybrid- Taylormade M4. 5i-PW- Mizuno HMB. 52*- Titleist SM7. 60*- Taylormade HT BF. 64*- Cleveland RTX-4. Putter- Directed Force 2.1. Bag- Sun Mountain.”

Spotted: Chris Kirk’s Callaway Opus wedges

Gear junkies have been waiting patiently for Callaway to release new wedges. We may have gotten a sneak peek at what’s coming after seeing something new in Chris Kirk’s bag at the 2024 Charles Schwab Challenge. Spotted were a few different wedges, but the Callaway Opus caught our eye.

The term opus can mean, “any artistic work, especially one on a large scale. With iconic wedge designer Roger Cleveland now working with Terra Forza golf, could this have been his last creation for Callaway?

We don’t have any official word from Callaway on these wedges, but the main focal point seems to be the extra mass in the center of the club. This added material could be used to adjust the center of gravity on the wedge in order for it to launch and spin a specific way. It can also be used to enhance the feel and sound of the club with more material behind the impact location.

The shaping of the head looks to be a little more on the rounded side compared to the current Jaws Raw wedges. The topline on the wedge looks to be fairly thin and the leading edge is pretty straight with just a little bit of a radius to it. The color looks to be an antique brown and it will be interesting to see if that is a plating on the club or some kind of oilcan finish that will wear away and rust.
