Callaway Golf released recently their new Sure Out 2 wedge, which boasts (among other things) an enhanced sole radius and bounce angle, thus making for the successor of the “vanilla” Sure Out wedge, launched back in 2018. It’s amazing how time flies nowadays in the golf industry, and how the lifespan of golf-gear is decreasing year over year; however, according to Callaway, the new Sure Out 2 is better in every way compared to the previous generation, due to the aforementioned sole radius/bounce angle thing, but, on top of that, the new-gen has more heel relief, i.e. it’s built and designed to please a broader range of golfers, and focused at helping them to execute flawlessly short game shots.
In order to achieve these goals, the Callaway Sure Out 2 wedge boasts seventeen full face grooves, designed with an aggressive pattern which is crafted to permit players to stop their shots rapidly, and also to deliver amazing control from every position, ranging from short chips to full swings. The new wedge from Callaway comes stock with a brand spanking new Lamkin Step Down grip, which has the signature 3 step-down markings, for effective and quick shot selection and stellar distance control. Everything’s on the up and up with the Sure Out 2 wedge, which can be bought in 56, 58, 60 and 64-degree loft for just $199.99 MSRP. Moreover, Callaway offers its customers a choice of high quality shafts, including UST Mamiya 65 graphite, KBS Wedge 90 steel and Fujikura Women’s 50 graphite.
The obvious question is: why should you buy this one if you already own the “older” model? To make a long and boring story short, the new wedge brought upon us by one of world’s most iconic golf manufacturers is the ideal choice for people who have problems with sand shots, or, to put it in a broader way, with short game shots.
If you think you fit the description, the new Sure Out 2 wedge will be a life-saver, as it comes with improved playability compared to the first generation, from a multitude of lies, not just deep sand or soft turf. And yes, that’s due to Callaway’s R&D department, working overtime to create a very forgiving wedge, which does a great job on a wider variety of shots, that on top of basic square face scenarios.
