Would You Pay THAT Much For A Set Of Callaway Golf Club?

By Len McGrane

Callaway golf clubs have become the most respected in the game.

The San Diego company expects to sell one billion dollars worth of equipment in 2007, and their clubs can be found in hundreds of thousands of golf bags across the country. On pro tours, big-name tournaments and on club courses, people are using Callaway.

Great players and big hitters from Arnold Palmer to Leta Lindley use these clubs, and for this reason alone I suspect many of us will also buy them; after all the pros can’t be wrong.

This popularity stems in part from Callaway technology, built in to each club. For years their development people have refined clubs and thought of new ways to improve player scores. The company has hundreds of US patents on their clubs, and in some years has been awarded more than 100 of them. All this has resulted in state of the art clubs that give a wide range of players longer and more accurate strikes.

Take drivers, for example. At the Moment of Inertia, when a club strikes the ball, you want a high index figure, because when it’s high you get more power on the ball and some automatic correction if your strike is slightly off center. Callaway claims to have high MOI built in to its clubs.

Lesser players report these clubs are forgiving and advanced players talk about how a Callaway lets them shape their shot more easily than some other makes. So balls go faster, with less curve. Which will have your golfing buddies wondering where your skill came from.

Success with basic technique, and a confidence born from the brand name and the feel of the Callaway clubs, lets you enjoy your game more. There will be more fun on the course when your clubs are lifting your ball longer with a degree of forgiveness.

And while its true these clubs are not cheap, there are discount Callaways on the market, and more modestly priced clubs in golf warehouses

The pros will tell you that with a set of Callaways in your bag the only limits to your game will be your ability and fitness.

Many of today’s golfers you will find are in their middle ages to more elderly men. The reason for this being the cost associated with golf that is hard for anyone but the true golfers to keep wanting to pay at a young age. The golfers who are later in their years have grown up to Callaway Golf producing excellent clubs with various improvements over the years. Any golfer throughout their career who has owned a Callaway golf club will attest to the reliability of these clubs.

Let’s see how Callaway Golf came about throughout its history. In the past, Ely Callaway created the Callaway Hickory Stick USA with the knowledge that he would be using that to create the most popular golf brand today in Callaway golf. The popularity stems from its innovation and unique aspects that are put into the making of the clubs. Their quality ranges throughout their product line over the years, including the woods and now the hybrid golf clubs.

Callaway’s range of clubs include their drivers, fairway woods, irons, wedges, putters and their hybrids. The famous drivers for Callaway is the Callaway Big Bertha Driver and some of their Fairway drivers include the Big Bertha Fusion Fairway Woods, Big Bertha Titanium Fairway Woods, and Big Bertha Fairway Woods. “Big Bertha” is the common well know name among most of their clubs. This name stems from the german cannon back in the early nineteen hundreds during the period of war. It is cleverly known for its ability to shoot long distance ranges with great precision. These qualities are something any professional golfer will appreciate. The millions of dollars in Callaway big bertha clubs sold surely indicate this appreciation.

For the Hybrid clubs produced by Callaway, you will definately look into the Big Bertha Heavenwood Hybrids. A superior club that warrants the price put on it. For 2009, Callaway has introduced a few new drivers including the Callaway FT-9 Tour Driver that is made to have a better MOI and improving your game. The fusion technology it comes with also provides professional golfers with a win win situation. One thing for certain with Callaway is you will get the research behind the product, and the results will show with a smile on your face the first time you use them teeing off.
