A new spin on forgiveness — the Callaway CB 12 Women's Wedge (2025) delivers effortless spin and easy short game performance designed specifically for the female golfer. Built around a confidence-inspiring cavity back shape, a wide Tri-Sole for versatile turf interaction, and the tour-proven OPUS groove platform, this wedge bridges the gap between the forgiveness of a game-improvement design and the look and feel of a classic tour wedge. Whether you are chipping from the fringe, pitching to a tight pin, or escaping a bunker, the CB 12 gives you the consistency and control to get up and down more often.
Fitted as standard with the lightweight UST Mamiya Recoil Wedge F1 Graphite shaft in Ladies flex, the CB 12 is optimised for the swing speeds and tempo of women golfers — making it easier to generate spin, control trajectory, and achieve a soft, repeatable contact on every short game shot.
The CB 12 features a deep cavity back construction combined with a larger head profile and a thicker topline that immediately inspires confidence at address. The additional visual mass behind the face reassures players who sometimes struggle with their short game, encouraging a committed, free-flowing swing. Twelve grams of perimeter weighting is distributed around the edges of the clubhead, raising the moment of inertia (MOI) significantly compared to a traditional blade or muscle-back wedge. The result is noticeably more stability and maintained ball speed on strikes away from the sweet spot — particularly valuable for mid-to-high handicappers who do not always make centre contact on short game shots.
The CB 12 inherits the same OPUS groove architecture found on Callaway's tour-favoured Opus wedge line. This groove platform uses a tighter pitch — more grooves packed closer together — combined with a 37-degree angled sidewall to engage more groove edges with the ball at impact. The effect is lower launch and noticeably more spin on chips, pitches, and bunker shots. A micro-texture face blast between the grooves further roughens the face surface to add bite even on partial swings where groove engagement is reduced. Whether you are attacking a short-sided pin or needing to stop the ball quickly on a firm green, the OPUS groove platform delivers the spin and control to make it happen.
Strategically concentrated in a pad positioned low behind the face and directly in line with the primary impact area, the Urethane Microspheres work by absorbing and dampening unwanted vibration at the moment of contact. The outcome is a noticeably softer, more muted sound and a refined feel that communicates clean, solid contact without the harsh feedback often associated with cavity back designs. At the same time, the microspheres preserve enough tactile information to let you sense the quality of each strike — giving you the feel data needed to adjust trajectory and spin on your next shot. This technology was introduced on the original Callaway CB wedge and has been refined again for the CB 12.
The Tri-Sole is a three-level sole configuration applied consistently across all six lofts in the CB 12 range. The wide sole provides a large, forgiving footprint that glides through turf smoothly rather than digging, making it ideal for players who tend to hit slightly behind the ball. The tri-level sole relief at the heel and toe sections adds versatility, allowing the clubface to be opened or manipulated for creative shots around the green without the wide sole catching. From full-swing gap wedge shots to delicate lob shots and bunker explosions, the Tri-Sole delivers more consistent interaction with the turf and sand — a critical advantage for women golfers with moderate swing speeds who rely on sole geometry rather than raw speed to power through the ground.
