These are my favorites so far. I like the small head to get through the thick grass around the greens. I can make more consistent ball contact with these heads. They also feel as soft, or softer, to me compared to the Mizunos, which I also like. Another thing I like is how easy it is to take a file to the soft metal and do my own special grinds for the type of shots I hit. I also like the slightly softer tip shaft. I really do think this provides a bit more touch, meaning distance control, on those delicate chips.

I almost passed these over, didnt even give them a try, the bounce on the 56 degree sw was a bit much, but have been frustrated trying to find the right wedge for the 54 to 55* slot, have a TSC clev, was trying a 54* Miz OX wedge, was running out of options so i grabbed the 52* raw Cally, and hit a few, had a much more solid feel than the OX, the OX is soft but it feels thin and too lite, anyway i thought what if i bent the Cally to 54*, it would be interesting to see what would happen, well, it turned out sweet, very good eye apeal, even better yet, works like a champ, so far its beat out my Cleveland TSC, JerryMB

Hands down the best performing and feeling wedge ever. This is coming from a strong Cleveland wedge player. Actually they are still Cleveland wedges since Roger Cleveland designed them and has them forged/marketed via Callaway. Very soft yet solid and crisp feel. Deadly accurate in both distance and direction. Sold my CG10's after comparing. Felt the CG 10's were heavy, soft but mushy.
