What we say...

Callaway’s Big Bertha range is one of the most iconic in golf and you would expect anything carrying the name to be pretty special.
You won’t be disappointed by the new Callaway Big Bertha Golf Irons, which combine the easy-to-hit i-Brid technology in the long irons with easy to hit mid and short irons.

The Callaway i-Brids blend the control and accuracy of irons with the forgiveness, distance and versatility of hybrids, while the mid and short irons are designed for the ultimate in forgiveness with increased offset. They are sure to be a top choice for anyone looking for a game improvemnet set in 2008.

  • i-Brids – Clubs that blend the control and accuracy of irons with the forgiveness, distance and versatility of hybrids. The low, deep centre of gravity (CG) helps get the ball in the air quickly and easily, and the extremely wide sole helps improve turf interaction.
  • Super Game-Improvement Mid and Short Irons – Designed for the ultimate in forgiveness with increased offset, a large effective hitting and a constant width sole that helps improve turf interaction.
  • Fully Integrated Set Design – Seamless performance progression throughout the set provides consistent distance separation with optimal trajectories.
  • Modified Tru-Bore – An advanced version of the original Tru-Bore design, the polycarbonate tip plug at the end of the shaft dampens vibration for enhanced feel and performance.

2009 Review

Our guys also struggled a little with distance here but were otherwise impressed. Longer irons are available in either a super game improvement style, or an even chunkier i-brid Callaway design. The guys also found decent control with the 8-iron.

    Very nice clubs. All of my playing friends love them. They feel perfectly weighted. the I brid's have helped my longer iron game. Highly recommended.
