Callaway has introduced a new line of tour-validated wedges, Opus and Opus Platinum, featuring Spin Gen Face technology for ultimate control in the short game. This technology combines three key elements on the face to provide spin and control: a tighter pitch with more grooves, an offset groove-in-groove design for spin, and an aggressive face blast for bite on partial shots.
In addition to Spin Gen Face technology, the wedges feature a higher toe peak, leading edge radius, and easier hosel transitions for enhanced performance. Various sole shapes are available to cater to different swing patterns, including S grind, W grind, C grind, and T grind shapes, ensuring maximum spin control for all types of lies.
Opus wedges are offered in brushed chrome, black shadow, or raw finish (for custom orders only), with stock shaft options including True Temper Dynamic Gold MID 115g and UST Recoil DART HDC shaft 65g paired with Golf Pride Tour Velvet +2 Grey grips. Opus Platinum wedges incorporate metal injection molding and tungsten for precision construction and launch control, with a lower flight for more control and spin into greens.
Tungsten has been integrated into the topline of Opus Platinum wedges to enhance flight control, while the Spin Gen Face Technology ensures Tour-level spin and shaping. These wedges have already gained popularity on Tour, with major victories from players like Xander Schauffele, Yuka Saso, Akshay Bhatia, Chris Kirk, and Ruoning Yin. Many players are utilizing Opus wedges at the 152nd Open Championship, including Nicolai and Rasmus Højgaard and Tom McKibbin.
Opus wedges are priced at £179 per club, while Opus Platinum Wedges are priced at £229 per club and will be available for retail purchase on September 6. The cutting-edge technology and performance of these wedges make them a significant advancement in short game control, appealing to both professional golfers and amateur players looking to improve their game.
