Give it a shot for a few months and see how you do. For calves, you really can't go wrong if you just beat the hell out of them. I train calves heavy but still wind up doing 5 sets of 12-16 so I can make sure I'm not cheating the weight. Seated and standing calf raises, doing them on a leg press, Smith machine, etc. Make sure you get a full range of motion and that you get a good stretch at the bottom. Squeeze the muscle as hard as you can when you reach the top of your motion and hold it for a second or two.
