Big Bertha is the name given by Callaway Golf to a number of its lines of golf clubs. The name was chosen to evoke the famous German Big Bertha howitzer . The original Big Bertha driver was launched in 1991.
Helmstetter was named chief club designer that same year and introduced computer-controlled manufacturing machines. With his help and that of Glenn Schmidt, the company's master tool maker, the company developed the original Big Bertha driver using large-volume (190cc) steel clubhead. The Big Bertha driver grew to 290 cc in 1997. [7]
The current incarnation of the Big Bertha driver is 460 cm 3 (28 cu in), which is the maximum allowable clubhead volume according to USGA rules, [2] though larger clubheads exist for long-drive contests and informal games. Today, many metal wood clubfaces (and most driver clubfaces) are constructed out of titanium.
