If you’re looking for loads of forgiveness, Callaway’s brand-new Big Bertha range could be for you. 

This range consists of a driver, fairway woods, hybrids and irons all featuring the latest in AI design offering max forgiveness and distance. 

“Big Bertha is one of the most iconic names in golf, providing game-changing performance and making the game more fun for players of all abilities – that’s the Big Bertha standard,” Callaway say.

“The new Big Bertha family is precisely engineered for players who want to launch the ball higher and play with more confidence every time they tee it up. This extremely forgiving line-up is designed to make every shot your best.”

If you struggle off the tee with a slice, then this driver is for you. If you are fighting a slice and need to help straighten out your ball flight, the lower spin and CG that is closer to the front of the club will help to mitigate that left-to-right ball flight. 

The driver features a new high strength AI XL face design with Callaway’s all new lightweight AI jailbreak system to deliver max speed and distance with a large forgiving sweet spot. The carbon crown and lightweight components also make this very lightweight and easy to swing filling you with confidence. 

Moving into the fairway woods we have, again, more forgiveness. The fairway woods are an oversized profile design with a shallow face to promote confidence at address and deliver a high, easy launch. The Jailbreak Batwing technology helps create stability and allows the face to flex for fast ball speeds. Speed also comes from the high strength AI design face and with the larger profile it’s forgiving across the whole face. Just like the driver it has a carbon crown and is lightweight and easy to swing with adjustability in the 3-wood and 5-woods.

If you struggle to get your longer irons in the air, then this hybrid will go a long way to help you. With a bigger head which helps you feel confident, the forgiveness and the offset of the club helps reduce the spin for straighter and longer ball flights. Internally you have tungsten weighting and Jailbreak Batwing technology to deliver easy launch, stability and fast speeds across the face. AI designed face cup optimises speeds across the entire face with a unique face pattern enhancing performance in each loft.

The irons are designed to be easy to hit and easy to launch with 11g of tungsten externally placed for more forgiveness and 43g internally for better launch and control. The AI designed face cup delivers fast speeds across the whole face with urethane microspheres delivering outstanding feel while maintaining exceptional ball speeds. With a redesigned shape with thicker toplines, wider soles, enhanced offset, and longer blade lengths this creates a forgiving, straighter ball flight.
