About the Callaway Rogue ST Max OS
The Callaway Rogue ST Max OS features an oversized head with maximum offset, the widest possible sole, and a deep undercut that makes it nearly impossible to mishit. The CG is positioned as low and as deep as technology allows. At impact it delivers light and high-launching with a cushioned impact feel, optimised to build confidence rather than deliver precise feedback.
Loft Analysis
The Callaway Rogue ST Max OS's 7-iron is lofted at 26.5° — strong — notably stronger than the traditional 32–34° standard. For a golfer with an 85–95 mph swing speed, this projects to a 7-iron carry of approximately 162–172 yards. The 5-iron (20°) to 7-iron gap of 6.5° is well-gapped, which may create overlapping distance windows with similarly lofted fairway woods or hybrids. The pitching wedge at 40.5° is relatively strong — consider a gap wedge of 46–48° to bridge the distance to your sand wedge.

- ✓High handicappers and beginners (20+ HCP) seeking maximum ease of use
- ✓Golfers who struggle to get the ball consistently airborne with traditional irons
- ✓Seniors and junior players who benefit from lighter, high-launching designs
- ✓Golfers whose current 7-iron carry is 160+ yards and want matching distance
