The Members Bag is the quintessential stand bag with heavy upgrades to give it a more premium look and feel. The velvety four-way divider and the quilted synthetic leather detailing have me feeling some type of way.

TaylorMade MG4 Wedges

The new TaylorMade MG4 wedges are in the same position as any band that ever took the stage right after the Beatles, Sinatra or, if you’re a teenage girl, Taylor Swift.

How the hell do you follow an act like that?

The TaylorMade MG3 (MG for Milled Grind) wedge is the only back-to-back winner of MyGolfSpy’s Most Wanted wedge testing. It ran away and hid from the rest of the field in both 2021 and 2022, scoring highest for accuracy and spin and performing well in our wet-conditions testing.

On top of that, our testers loved the design and the feel.

MG3 was, in short, no joke.

Callaway Paradym Star series built for more speed and distance | FIRST LOOK

Callaway's Paradym Star line offers reduced weight and more draw bias for increased distance for players looking to gain back lost yards.

The post Callaway Paradym Star series built for more speed and distance | FIRST LOOK appeared first on Golf.

Callaway Introduces Paradym Star

Paradym has been a success for Callaway. They seemed to be winning every week during the first half of the season, obviously helped by Jon Rahm finding form. They’ve also been raking it in, according to John Barba’s latest financial report on the Topgolf Callaway behemoth. While they might not be selling equipment hand over fist, it’s still fair to call Paradym a big win.

However, the Callaway Paradym line-up doesn’t have something for everyone. While the Triple Diamond targeted the better players, Paradym covered the bulk of the game-improvement sector and the Paradym X helped battle the slice, there was nothing specifically targeted at slower swing speeds. 

Enter the new Callaway Paradym Star.

At one point, senior clubs were all the rage. The classic KING COBRA Seniors with their green graphite shafts spring to mind as well as Yonex. In the current landscape, it’s only really XXIO which offers a premium product that is targeted at the older golfer looking to retain some clubhead speed. Callaway has offered Star products previously with Epic Forged Star and Epic MAX Star. But the new Callaway Paradym Star feels like the most cohesive line-up

“When we look at who it’s for with the Paradym Star family, we know there are a lot of golfers who are either swing speed challenged or getting up in age but they want the performance of Paradym,” explained Dave Neville, Senior Director, Brand Management.

Club of the day - Wilson Staff Model CB

The Wilson Staff Model CB irons are part of Wilson's premium lineup, known for their classic design, precision, and feel. Here are some key features and characteristics of the Wilson Staff Model CB irons:

  1. Classic Look: The Staff Model CB irons have a traditional and compact blade-style design that appeals to skilled players who prefer a clean and timeless appearance.

  2. Forged Construction: These irons are forged from soft carbon steel, which enhances their feel and responsiveness. The forging process also allows for precise shaping and positioning of the weight.

  3. Consistent Distance: Despite their classic appearance, the Staff Model CB irons incorporate modern technology to ensure consistent distance and forgiveness across the clubface.

  4. Tungsten Weighting: To optimize the center of gravity and improve forgiveness, the irons feature strategically placed tungsten weighting. This helps launch the ball higher and adds stability on off-center hits.
