Callaway Big Bertha Golf Iron Sets
The Callaway Big Bertha Golf Iron Set features Callaway's revolutionary 360 Face Cup Technology, which employs a flexible rim around the face to generate faster ball speeds and increased distance, even on off-center hits. The Suspended Energy Core, a pioneering construction, lowers the center of gravity, promoting higher launch and enhancing feel. With a wide sole design, these irons offer outstanding turf interaction and shot stability. Combined with high-density tungsten weighting for optimal balance and enhanced control, the Big Bertha irons cater to golfers of all skill levels.
Key features include:
| Tungsten Weighting | Strategically placed tungsten weighting in the Big Berta Irons. |
| Face Cup | High-strength face cup designed with artificial intelligence to optimize speed and spin across the face. |
| Confidence-Inspiring Shape | Features thicker toplines, wider soles, enhanced offset, and longer blade lengths. |
| Urethane Microspheres | Designed to produce a good feel while maintaining exceptional ball speeds. |
| Smoked Black Finish | The latest Callaway Big Bertha irons come in a stylish black smoke finish. |

Progression of the Big Bertha irons
One of the first irons of its time (1997) to be made of composite materials. The Great Big Bertha irons were designed by reusing the shape of the Tour Series wedges with the S2H2 concept. The name was X11 originally but never hit the market because “Callaway decided not to make clubs for advanced players”. The Big Bertha iron set features an ultra-low CG and the sole replaces 40% of the head weight with a heavy material called tungsten. It also featured for the first time a bore-through neck and a lighter titanium body.
| 👍 Pros |
|---|
| The Big Bertha irons are by far the easiest to hit and they launch high with no effort. If you struggle with hitting the ball high and landing soft, buy this set. |
| I love these irons! If you’re looking for a club with distance and forgiveness, I’d recommend these. |
| Love these clubs. Great performance and good looking too. |
| 👎 Cons |
|---|
| I’m having a hard time hitting my longer irons. They come out way too low for me and my game. |
| The head of the iron is too heavy and clunky. Upon impact, it sounds like you’re hitting a hybrid. |
| Not forgiving whatsoever, you would expect Big Bertha clubs to be forgiving and accurate. Well, they are not. |
The Big Berthas come at a great price point. Whenever people message me and ask for a good beginner iron set, I always point them in the direction of the Big Berthas. They are distance-heavy, and the forgiveness and low spin will help players hit the ball straight. They are built for average to below-average golfers. If you're a beginner not wanting to make an investment in your first iron set and just want to figure out if you like the game or not, these are for you.
