CALLAWAY X SERIES JAWS CHROME WEDGE - any good?

[nevets88]

I found this for $35 and am tempted. I like that it has 16 degrees of bounce. Anyone with any experience with this club?

It's a SW with C-grind: heel and toe relief on the sole to allow more opening and closing of the face when wanted. For $34 - if it's new - give it a try. You'll have to practice a bit with it to get used to what you can do.

Note: it has a graphite shaft. If that didn't work out, you could reshaft.

I have a Callaway X.Forged (circa 2009) - C-grind with 56.15 - and I really like it. It replaced a 54* and a 58* from another  manufacturer.

Not to side-track your club consideration, or blatantly promote another website, but Rock Bottom currently has a great sale on Scratch wedges. The 3-wedge set is currently still selling for $189.99, however you can purchase individual 8620 Chrome Milled wedges for $38.00 each. In my experience, I liked these wedges more than Vokey, X-Jaws (CC Slate) or 588 by Cleveland. Just offering some helpful insight.  The price is great considering the PGA Value Guide considers a resale of a Scratch 8620 to be $45 used. They would be rather easy to sell if you're not satisfied.

I sold my entire set and am starting from the ground up on rebuilding my set. I just purchased 3 of the Scratch wedges last night and they should arrive on Thursday. I also received a free gift, a Wilson Black Chrome Harmoized 64° LW, which I intend to give away.

I couldn't find the $38 price, perhaps the sale is over? I only found this:

I missed that it was a graphite shaft. Thanks for the heads up.

Damn. Sorry, the sale must have ended literally this morning. It was part of their "Rocktoberfest Our-Cost" campaign.

No need for apologies. Looks like I need to check Rockbottom more often.
