Wedge guru Roger Cleveland used feedback from Callaway’s Tour players like Phil Mickelson to create the new Mack Daddy 2 wedges. They feature an aggressive “5V” groove pattern, increasing the surface area and size of the grooves by 39 per cent and creating 25 per cent more spin than Callaway’s previous X-Forged model. A laser-milled, micro-groove pattern increases surface roughness to help enhance spin control. It also pre-conditions the face to add surface roughness after the micro grooves wear off. “These new forged wedges are all about the performance of the grooves and how they manage spin, trajectory and distance,” said Cleveland. “Head shape is also vital to Mack Daddy 2. Each loft option has a beautiful ‘tear-shaped’ tour-tested appearance that is as much about function as it is about looks.”
TG Tester Reviews:
James Ridyard
I found this wedge very versatile, the result of an aggressively ground and well-designed sole that makes it easy to add or reduce bounce. There’s plenty of heel and toe relief too for opening and closing the face. Nice club.

There’s a lot going on between the grooves, and it felt quite easy to hit a low, spinny one. Solid feel, and the ball flight felt fairly consistent.
