Callaway Golf has introduced its new Big Bertha REVA line including a driver, fairway woods, hybrids and irons designed to provide women golfers faster ball speeds while helping to promote a higher launch.

Big Bertha REVA Driver

Callaway’s first high launch driver features an ultra-low forward CG designed to produce low spin in a bid to provide more distance and a more consistent ball flight.

The Big Bertha REVA driver contains an A.I. designed Flash Face designed to promote fast ball speeds across a more expansive area in each model and loft. The clubface also features a Super Strength Titanium construction, which per the company is lighter and stronger than traditional titanium in design to provide optimal speed, forgiveness, and spin characteristics.

Two internal Jailbreak bars stiffen the body of the driver in design to allow the face to flex more, while the lighter carbon crown allowed Callaway engineers to redistribute weight resulting in a higher MOI.

In addition, the high MOI Big Bertha head is engineered with internal draw bias weighting in a bid to help improve player’s launch angles and to promote a straighter, longer ball flight.

Specs, Pricing and Availability

The Big Bertha REVA driver comes equipped with a RCH 40 Shaft and a Lamkin Women’s ST Soft Grip. The driver comes in loft options of 10.5 and 12.5 -degrees and hits retail on October 15 at a price of $499.99.

Big Bertha REVA Fairway Woods

The Big Bertha fairway woods contain a shallow face, progressive lengths and an oversized Bertha shape in a bid to provide consistent contact and smooth turf interaction.

The fairway woods feature increased offset in design to reduce slices and promote a distance-enhancing draw bias, while the brand’s A.I Flash Face SS21 which aims to promote fast ball speed across an expansive area is combined with Jailbreak bars that connect the crown and sole in a bid to increase stiffness and provide greater speed.

Specs, Pricing and Availability

The Big Bertha fairway woods come equipped with a lightweight RCH shaft which aims to produce faster swing speeds and a Lamkin Women’s ST Soft grip. The fairway woods arrive in 3W, 5W, 7W and 9W options and hit retail on October 15 at a price of $299.99 each.

Big Bertha REVA Hybrids

Also equipped with Callaway’s A.I. Flash Face SS21; the Big Bertha REVA hybrids feature increased offset to guard against slices and to help to promote a straighter ball flight for added distance.

The hybrids also feature two internal Jailbreak bars that connect the sole and crown so that the face can take on more of the load at impact. Per Callaway, the hybrids contain a significantly lighter carbon crown that allowed engineers to redistribute weight to create higher MOI in a forgiving shape.

In addition, the hybrids contain dual MIM’ed tungsten weighting producing an optimized CG in design for ease of launch and stability.

Specs, Pricing and Availability

The Big Bertha hybrids come equipped with an all-new RCH shaft, which per the company was designed to specifically increase swing speed, along with a Lamkin ST Grip. The hybrids, which arrive in 4H, 5H, 6H, 7H and 8H options, hit retail on October 15 at a price of $249.99 each.

Big Bertha REVA Irons

The Big Bertha REVA irons are the first irons to feature Callaway’s A.I.-designed Flash Face Cup. In addition, the irons also feature Visible Tungsten Energy Core (VTEC) – designed to deepen the CG to make the irons extremely easy to launch.

The irons feature wider soles which aim to provide golfers with more confidence at address, while the added offset on these REVA irons is designed to promote easy launch, lower spin and straighter shots.

Completing the Big Bertha REVA irons is the brand’s urethane microspheres which are engineered to absorb unwanted vibration for excellent feel, while also maintaining fast ball speeds.

Specs, Pricing and Availability

The Big Bertha REVA irons come equipped with a speed-enhancing RCH Shaft and a Lamkin Women’s ST Soft Grip. The irons, which arrive in lofts of 5-PW, A, S, hit retail on October 15 and cost $999.99 (Graphite 7-piece).

TaylorMade MySpider Tour and Tour X: More customizable build options now available

TaylorMade Golf’s MySpider program underwent a substantial overhaul over the last month. Firstly, the company launched the option to customize the Spider ZT model, and now the program has returned with the MySpider Tour and MySpider Tour X.

The revamped page now gives golfers complete control over every visual and functional detail of their putter on the popular Tour and Tour X head, with every cosmetic idea thought of. In MySpider Tour, golfers can choose from four head finishes, 16 paint fill colors, nine Surlyn face insert colors, three aluminum insert options, six sightline configurations, and four hosel options — L-neck, small slant, double bend, center shaft. Six sightline options are available in MySpider Tour, including the optically engineered True Path alignment system. MySpider Tour X gives builders the option of four head finishes, four hosel configurations, and five sightline options, also including True Path alignment.

One of the more interesting features of the new MySpider program is the availability of three distinct face insert options. Along with the usual Surlyn Pure Roll insert trusted by Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, which can be customized from nine colors, golfers can now also select firmer options. Two are offered with the black aluminum Pure Roll insert, slightly firmer than the traditional insert, or for the firmest feel, golfers can choose from two colors of milled aluminum inserts.

Another fun addition to the MySpider Tour is the ability to use the “Tommy Sightline.” The custom alignment aid design, which was first drawn onto Tommy Fleetwood’s putter by PGA Tour Rep James Holley, is based on the milled sightline on his Spider ZT head. There are five shorter lines on the left and right of a longer central line serving as the traditional short line alignment aid.

Then and now: Comparing Rory McIlroy’s current setup to his record-breaking 2019 Canadian Open victory

In Rory McIlroy’s first appearance at the 2019 RBC Canadian Open, he crushed the record books to earn his 16th PGA Tour title in dominating fashion, winning by seven shots over Shane Lowry and Webb Simpson.

McIlroy’s score of 22-under-par 258 is the lowest 72-hole score to date at the Canadian Open, and his closing 61 is also the best final-round score in the history of one of golf’s oldest tournaments. Finally, with his win in 2019, McIlroy became only the sixth player to win the career Triple Crown, adding to his victories at the U.S. Open in 2011 and The Open Championship in 2014, joining Tommy Armour, Walter Hagen, Arnold Palmer, Lee Trevino and Tiger Woods in a coveted list.

So, with that, why not compare his current setup to the clubs he used to break all the records?

Driver

2019: TaylorMade M5 (9 degrees), Shaft: Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro White 70 TX
2026: TaylorMade Qi4D (9 degrees @8), Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Black 7X (45 5/8 inches)

McIroy led the Tour in Strokes Gained: Off-the-Tee in 2019; he’s doing the same in 2026. Between now and then, McIlroy has switched from the Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro White 70 TX (a shaft with slightly more feeling in the tip) to the original Fujikura Ventus Black 7X, having just made the change to the heavier version from playing the 60X.

What’s interesting about McIlroy’s 2019 setup is that the weighting on his driver is actually set in the high-draw setting, using the T-Track weighting system, whereas in the Qi4D, he’s currently using a heavily rear-weighted setup. (Two 13-gram weights in the rear and only two 4-gram front weights.)

The TaylorMade M5 driver he played in during his Canadian Open win was the company’s first head that they claimed to design to initially exceed the USGA’s COR limit, and then injected with tuning resin to bring it back in bounds.

Fairway woods

2019: TaylorMade M6 3-wood (15 degrees), Shaft: Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro White 80 TX; TaylorMade M5 5-wood (19 degrees), Shaft: Mitsubishi Tensei CK Pro White 90 TX
2026: TaylorMade Qi4D 3-wood (15 degrees), Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Black 8X; TaylorMade Qi4D 5-wood (18 degrees), Shaft: Fujikura Ventus Black 9X

The TaylorMade M6 fairway wood that McIlroy was using during the 2019 season is still in the bag of some of the best golfers on Tour in 2026. Just check out Justin Rose’s winning setup from the Farmers Insurance Open earlier this year. This year, though, McIlroy has still been searching for his top-end-of-the-bag setup, having played both the new Qi4D and the Qi10, which he won the Masters with.

The same shaft swap can be seen in the fairway woods as the driver, along with slightly less loft on the 5-wood.

Irons

2019: TaylorMade P750 (4) Buy here, TaylorMade P730 (5-9), Shafts: Project X 7.0
2026: TaylorMade P760 (4), TaylorMade Rors Proto (5-9), Shafts: Project X 7.0

The biggest difference between McIlroy’s custom set and the stock P730s is the groove design. While the P730s were constructed with 14 MX-9 grooves on their milled faces, McIlroy’s proto heads instead use the higher-spinning, 16-groove layout of the TW2 grooves. Other big differences between the sets are that McIlroy’s 7- and 8-irons have thinner toplines, are 1 degree stronger in loft, and are 1/4 inch longer than the original P730 builds.

With McIlroy’s 4-iron, the switch from P750 to P760 sees a transition to a two-piece construction with Speed Foam in it, which allows McIlroy to launch the ball slightly higher, with more workability.

Wedges

2019: TaylorMade Milled Grind (48-09SB), TaylorMade MG Hi-Toe (52-09SB, 56-09SB, 60-LB09), Shafts: Project X Rifle 6.5
2026: TaylorMade MG5 (46-09SB, 50-09SB, 54-11SB, 60-08LB @61), Shafts: Project X 6.5 (46-54), Project X 6.5 Wedge (60)

Between 2019 and 2026, McIlroy’s focus on his short game has been much more apparent. It was the reason why he switched back to the TP5 golf ball, to help with launch, spin and control with his wedges leading up to his career Grand Slam victory in 2025. The most apparent changes to McIlroy’s wedge setup are his lofts and bounce. He’s slowly delofted his pitching to a sand wedge, but has increased the loft on the lob wedge, bending his current 60-degree to 61. With that, adding more loft to his lob wedge also slightly increases the bounce and leading-edge sit point, so, as a result, he plays a lower-bounce lob wedge compared to 2019. The MG5 wedges are also softer than the first Milled Grind option from 2019. McIlroy also no longer plays the full-face grooves found on the Hi-Toe.

Putter

2019: TaylorMade Spider X
2026: TaylorMade Spider Tour X

Notice anything similar. Yes, the copper finish on Rory McIlroy’s Spider X putter in 2019 is a slightly more reflective finish than the recently released torched PVD finish. McIlroy was using the True Path alignment system, but now uses only a single white sightline.

Ball

2019: 2019 TaylorMade TP5 (#22)
2026: 2025 TaylorMade TP5 (RORS)

As mentioned above, McIlroy had transitioned from the TP5 to TP5x golf ball since his victory in Canada in 2019, but now is black with the same style of golf ball as his victory at Hamilton Golf & Country Club.

Grips

2019: Golf Pride Tour Velvet Cord
2026: Golf Pride MCC

Interesting, McIlroy actually used Golf Pride’s Tour Velvet Cord grips during his victory in 2019 (it was during a 2+ year switch to the corded TV) as opposed to his usual MCC grips, which he has played for most of his career.
