The Callaway CB 12 is a game-improvement wedge that redistributes 12 grams of perimeter weight via its cavity-back design to deliver iron-like forgiveness around the greens. Opus grooves with a 37-degree angled sidewall provide spin consistency, while urethane microspheres dampen vibration for improved feel. The Tri-Level sole grind with a chamfered leading edge resists digging, making this an ideal wedge for mid-to-high handicap players.
