Callaway Mack Daddy 4 Black Tour Wedge – S Grind
The New Standard for Wedge Performance
The all-new Callaway Mack Daddy 4 Black Tour Wedge – S Grind sets the standard for wedge performance by combining innovative performance technologies with premium components. It’s the finest collaboration yet between industry legend Roger Cleveland and Callaway R&D and was influenced heavily by Tour pro input.

New Groove-in-Groove Technology for More Spin
Callaway’s proprietary Groove-In-Groove Technology combines a unique suite of features to provide more shot-stopping spin. The main grooves are saw-cut and horizontal milled to precise tolerances. The lower lofted wedges (52° and below) feature a 20D groove for consistent spin on fuller shots, while the higher lofted wedges (54° and above) feature an aggressive 5D groove for maximum control out of the rough and around the green. The 16-groove configuration includes our extra “Nip-It” groove near the leading edge for added control, especially on short shots. The Micro-Positive surface roughness, milled into the flat parts of the face, features three raised micro-ridges, extending the length of the hitting area, with micro-grooves between the ridges that help grab the ball’s cover to increase spin significantly on a variety of shots. This combination of grooves plus micro-grooves provides 84 different contact points to grab the cover. All Mack Daddy 4 grooves are 100% inspected with a digital stylus and special software to ensure the tightest tolerance within the USGA rules.
Tour-Inspired Shaping
The Mack Daddy 4 is the most rigorously tested and Tour-validated wedge we’ve ever offered. Roger Cleveland’s tireless work on Tour refining shapes, soles, grinds, and camber led to a more compact shape, straighter leading edge, tighter leading-edge radius, and slightly more offset, compared to MD3 wedges. The tight radius makes it easy to make clean contact on tight lies for maximum spin and control. “Tour pros like only a subtle amount of leading-edge radius,” said Roger. “In the Mack Daddy 4, we gave them enough to make a performance difference while still pleasing the eye.”
Four Grind Options: C, S, W, and New X
MD4 wedges are available in four grind options, each with generous camber from heel to toe for smooth turf interaction and solid feel. C Grind: Increased relief, especially at the heel, making it easier to play shots with the face open. Ideal for medium-to-shallow attack angles and/or firm course conditions. 8° bounce. S Grind: Medium-width sole with slight chamfer at the back and moderate heel relief to keep the leading edge low through impact, promoting solid contact on open-faced shots. 10° bounce. W Grind: Sole is wider at the center and toe and narrower at the heel, with moderate heel relief and generous front-to-back camber. That prevents digging without increasing bounce and keeps the leading edge close to the turf at impact. Great for open-faced shots. More versatile than our previous W Grind. 12° bounce. New X Grind: The newest grind features a narrow, high-bounce crescent sole, with the low point near the front. Excellent for moderate-to-steep attack angles and medium-to-soft course conditions. 12° bounce.
Uniquely Satisfying Feel
Wedge feel is the product of several variables: CG location, sole, head material, finish, shaft, and grip. We’ve carefully considered all of those elements, including the soft 8620 carbon steel head and Platinum Chrome or Matte Black finish. Our system of four weight ports and milled aluminum medallions allows us to position the head’s CG progressively upward as loft increases for solid feel on every shot. The Dynamic Gold Tour-Issue 115 shaft and premium Lamkin UTx grip further enhance feel. These elements, combined with precise turf interaction from our bounce/grind options, give the MD4 the most satisfying feel we’ve ever accomplished in a wedge.

TaylorMade Milled Grind Black Wedge
THE NEW MARKS OF PRECISION
Drawing inspiration for the world’s best golfers, TaylorMade Milled Grind Wedge use advanced surface milling techniques to ensure precise sole geometry, leading edges, and score lines. The result is a precisely crafted grind on each and every wedge that produces optimal turf interaction and consistent performance.
“Wedges that are hand-ground lend themselves to inconsistencies from wedge to wedge, especially when mass-produced. Our new Milled Grind wedges ensure precision where it matters most. Utilizing extensive feedback from Tour players, we crafted three uniquely milled grinds for all types of swings and turf conditions.”
– Paul Demkowski, Expert Engineer, Irons & Wedges
Finding the perfect grind geometry was one of the primary development stages in which TaylorMade relied on input from Tour players. To craft the wedges to exacting specifications, each leading edge and sole grind is individually surface milled for unparalleled accuracy. A low effective bounce (LB) grind provides the least amount of ground resistance, a standard grind (SB) has a median ground resistance, and a high bounce (HB) grind features a wider sole that offers the most ground resistance.
Milled Grind wedges also exhibit a deeper bore and shaft insertion than previous wedges, going from 1.0 inch to 1.5 inches-resulting in a soft, red polymer-filled Precision Weight Port located toward the heel of every sole. The deeper bore, while providing an improved shaft connection, also removes weight from the hosel to be relocated into a more centrally located position, which improves the center of gravity (CG), making the club more solid and more forgiving.
A new and improved groove configuration is also incorporated into the faces of each new wedge. These soft 8620 carbon steel wedges promise to be the most precise, best balanced, and best feeling wedge that TaylorMade has ever produced.
“MG wedges are all about perfection, which is what you want for your short game. The shaping is clean, the edges are sharp, and the look gives me the confidence to stay aggressive.”
– Jason Day, Tour Professional
