Great Big Bertha Fairway Wood
Speed, Forgiveness, and Distance.
The Callaway Great Big Bertha Fairway Wood is a breakthrough in technology for more distance and playability, with a Forged Hyper Speed Face Cup for ball speed and a Modern Warbird Sole that makes it easy to hit.
Forged Hyper Speed Face Cup
Designed for high speeds that make the ball go a long way on center hits and off-center hits.
OptiFit Hosel
The OptiFit hosel lets you choose from 8 different configurations to tune loft, lie and face angle. With the OptifFit hosel appropriately configured to the needs of each individual player, the result is a high launch angle and low spin-rate, the launch conditions that promote maximum distance.
*OptiFit Adjustability not available in 7W and Divine 9.
Ultimate Playability and Control
The head is larger than our typical fairway wood, and that extra surface area leads to a higher MOI for more forgiveness. The added Warbird Soleplate which makes the club easy to hit from a variety of lies with a mid-launching trajectory.
Special Heavenwood and Divine Nine Options
These two clubs have a unique combination and tighter dispersion than you might get from your regular club configuration. The Heavenwood (20.5* loft, 43” shaft) and Divine Nine (24*, 42” shaft) could give you the perfect gapping for your bag.
Low Center of Gravity
Great Big Bertha features a sophisticated design that pulls the center of gravity low in the head and rearward, away from the center of the clubhead, to make it easier to launch the ball at a higher angle while keeping backspin to a minimum.

The Takeaway
Callaway’s new GBB Fairway models produces higher ball speeds from their Forged Cup Face Technology. The Hyper Speed Face Cup produces high speeds on center hits and off-center hits. The head is larger than most fairways which creates more surface area and a higher MOI resulting in extra forgiveness. The sole plate offers players the ability to use these woods from all sorts of lies with a mid-launching trajectory. The OptiFit offers simple but effective hosel adjustments to help dial in the head.
Who's It For?
The new GBB Fairway models are designed for players that love to use their Fairway woods often. The addition of the Heavenwood (20 degrees of loft) and the Divine Nine (24 degrees of loft) gives players who struggle with hybrids the perfect option from a fairway model. It fits really well for those that have issues elevating the ball as the shallow face design produces a lower center of gravity to help increase launch angles.
Final Take
Off the Deck, I had zero issues elevating the GBB with its low center of gravity off the deck, even from a nice tight fairway lie. With its shallow face off the tee I made sure to tee the ball up fairly low and it produced a nice tight, medium penetrating ball flight. This year’s model was definitely a lower ball flight than last year’s version for me. With the larger head size, I would stick with the higher lofted heads for the majority of lies in the rough, unless your ball is sitting up nicely. The larger area tends to grab the grass more which could produce a loss of control and a very low launch angle.
I found the flat black crown quite appealing and this head was very easy to hit with surprisingly less spin than the past offering. Even with its lower center of gravity and shallow face I was able to produce a nice mid-high penetrating ball flight. Only a few off-center hits produced some high spin, high launch “powder puffers”. Off the tee and off the deck I had zero issues elevating the 15 degree head. Like the driver the feel was very solid and somewhat muted in sound. I found the club was very light in feel to me with the 50 gram shaft but I did not lose as much control as I would have thought.
