The Callaway Opus Platinum Chromerepresentsa significant advancement in wedge technology, combining innovations such as metal injection molding (MiM) and the incorporation of tungsten to deliver superior flight control.
Technologies:
MiM Construction for Precise Feel.
- Engineered by metal injection molding (MiM), using a proprietary blend of metals to fine-tune performance and feel.
Tungsten in the Upper for a Lower, More Controlled Flight
- The incorporation of tungsten in the top line of the wedge allows for a higher center of gravity, resulting in a lower, more controlled ball flight.
Spin Gen Face Technology for Pro-Level Effect
- Combines three key elements in the wedge face:
- Tighter groove pattern that increases the number of grooves on the face, improving contact and spin.
- Offset groove in groove (present in lofts from 54° to 60°) that generates more spin when opening the clubface.
- Aggressive face finish for added grip and spin on partial hits.
These elements work together to deliver a level of spin and control comparable to that of professional players.
Tour Validated Design
- Features a shape that has been tested and validated on Tour, with a higher toe peak, a radius on the leading edge and smoother cap transitions.
High Quality Finishes and Components
- Stunning ultra-premium Platinum Chrome finish.
- Features high quality components, including the True Temper Dynamic Gold MID shaft with Gunmetal finish (115g), and a premium MCC grip in Golf Pride gray/black.
In short, the Callaway Opus Platinum Blue wedge fuses advanced technologies and refined design to provide golfers with exceptional control and feel in their short game.
Guide to choose your Wedge
If you have a sharp or flat attack with the ball, live in a place with a lot of rain or the fairways where you play are very hard, the wegde is the perfect choice for your game.
Most sets of irons usually include a wedge, usually the pitch but many players want to expand their range of wedges and choose their own club. Para so you should consider the following features when making your decision
- WEDGE LOFT
- Pitch (PW): generally included in iron sets, it is the next highest loft club after the 9-iron. It usually has a loft between 46º and 50º and is used in long shots at green.
- Approach (AW): with a lighter loft between 50º-55º, they cover the existing needs between a pitch and the wedge sand.
- Arena (WA): usually used in bunker play due to their high rebound, they reach 100 yards and have a loft between 54º and 58º.
- Lob Wedge (LW): they throw the ball very high in short distances and are usually between 56º and 60º lofts although they can exceed 64º.
- REBOUND ANGLE
Here we refer to the curved part on the sole of the wedge that will allow the head to bounce out of the sand without getting caught.
The highest bounce we can find is 18º and we can conclude that the higher the bounce angle, the higher the shots.- Low bounce: perfect for shots from tight positions and thick grass conditions. The lower the bounce of the wegde, the easier it will be to shoot high and the softer the landing. They are perfect for low lofts with the pitch and are used for longer approach shots.
- Standard bounce: ideal for almost all conditions and players as they are very versatile wedges with a slightly higher angle of attack than most.
- High bounce: designed for play off the turf and sand, with a wider flange and a higher bounce angle that prevents cavation.
Para golfers with high angles are perfect for this type of wedges.
- FINISHES
In general, the wegde finish is purely aesthetic rather than functional although in the case of finishes such as matte, they do not help to reduce light reflection on the club and those with natural finishes are designed primarily to prevent corrosion.
