Callaway Launch New Legacy Black Range
Published: Last updated:
Callaway have launched their new Legacy Black range that is aimed at the ‘more competitive golfer looking for tour-level performance’.
The new line focuses on performance and the irons have already stamped their authority on the Asian market by becoming the number one selling iron in Japan after only a few weeks on the shelves.
Created by Callaway’s design guru Roger Cleveland, the Legacy Black irons feature a slightly compact head and employ Callaway’s Tour CC (competition conforming) grooves. These add 40% more grooves to the clubface through tighter spacing, which delivers increased spin for more aggressive shot-making.
The irons are created from Triple Net Forged 1020 Carbon Steel. The Triple Net Forging delivers tighter tolerances and consistency, while the Carbon Steel offers a soft yet solid feel through impact.
To complement the high-performance head, the Legacy Black Irons use advanced shaft technology developed by True Temper, in the form of the Taper Tip Dynamic Gold GS95 S200 lightweight steel, and high performance DD2 grips crafted by Golf Pride.
Also in the new range is the Legacy Black titanium driver, sporting aviation grade titanium and a beautiful black PVD finish. The product is underpinned by its ability to create exceptional speed and power on every shot.
This is achieved through a highly refined chemical milling process that removes unwanted weight from both the crown and face of the club, allowing the centre of gravity to be perfectly positioned. The new driver also has Forged Hyperbolic Face Technology that delivers a precise, thin contact surface for consistently higher ball speeds and the forged construction of the head gives additional responsiveness.
Completing the new line-up is the Legacy Black woods and hybrids that are also geared towards better feel and distance. The high strength, ultra-thin Carpenter steel faces help to generate faster ball speeds and allow for saved weight to be re-positioned in the traditionally-shaped heads to aid powerful, penetrating ball flights.
