Sell some of your access inventory to make room for your new gear:)

And I’m a whole lot meaner.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with me, let me start by saying: You can go ahead and thank me for your job. Because without me Callaway Golf would not be what it is today. For those of you who have been living under a rock, here’s a little bit about my past:

In my former life, which began in 1991, I was the first widebody, stainless steel wood. I don’t mean to boast, but most people credit me with changing the golf equipment business forever. By 1994, I was the No. 1 driver on the PGA TOUR. In 1995, I reinvented myself as the Great Big Bertha and put Callaway on top of the golf industry.

Now, a new generation is here. And you won’t believe it when you see what I look like now. I even have one of those hashtag things that the cool kids are using nowadays, so get amongst it: #BerthasBack


Bertha

PS - More information next week.

Copious amounts of Paula B should do the trick.

I hope they do the media tumble/grey finish like they used to.

Com'on Man, give us something we haven't seen yet. I know you want to......

Is that the store display prop from back in the 90s?

Not sure but this is down at the Golf hall of fame in Florida. This pic was taken in September of this year.

Drivers B & C will be "revealed" on Monday.

So Harry, please make sure you send that BB sitting in the trunk to me asap (as per our twitter chat) . I'm ready to see if Callaway can knock out my Superfast TP V1 driver out of my bag. I'm an old school golfer with glued hosel one set loft/ lie that works for my game. Now if BB's new tech helps me gain 5-10 yards and still allows me to hit a majority of fairways as I do know with current driver I'll be glad to give Callaway all the praise I gave them back when I played the FT9 TA.

Now that's a GREAT BIG BERTHA, and It's LOOOOOOOONNNNGGGGG! Takes some major coordination to get that club back to square...... but then again who squares the club up all the time anyway

This. Love that look.

[Bogey's Belly]

IIRC, it was approximately 1 year ago today a random website was created a link to it was placed in a competitors thread and 2 new drivers were leaked.... I guess they assumed nobody would be minding the gate over a holiday or wouldn't actually believe it was a leak give the the bold design of the R1 and RBZ 2. Anyone else remember that?

[woods991]

looking forward to this one...

[gvogel]

Alright. All these speculations, back and forth, legal ramification talks...

 

Here it is.

My guess is a SW of N4 lol

[kmac02576]

Yeah, when you compare it to the first pics we saw of the slider prototype, it looks like this is what the prototype turned into.

I just remember wanted it really bad when I'd see it in the pro shop as a wee little lad and arguing with my brother about whether Long John Daly could swing it.

That giant Big Bertha display sealed my fate as a Callaway fanatic from the beginning of my golfing addiction
