Well, I just recently got a new Nike SV 60* lob wedge to replace my old 588 cleveland. The first thing that I noticed is that the wedge feels really soft--which I love. Makes my shots feel really controlled. And the name is really true, the spin generated onto the ball is great. It works wonders with flop shots (the bounce is 10 degrees), and is great out of bunkers. The first time I used it in the bunker while playin' a round I put it to about 1.5 feet. *Grin*

The next part is the look...the chrome finish on the wedge is really appealing to me. The hue is kinda ackward, not quite bronze but not quite a nickel colour...I like it. The wedge has a really clean look, a pure blade
('cept for the swoosh), the grip is good considering it's stock AND Nike..

And last but not least; Price. This is probably one of the cheaper wedges out there, cashin' in at about $130 canadian. (I got it for less than $50, since I traded in my old TM 540 driver, so it was all the sweeter.)


Performance: 10/10

Look:10/10

Feel: 8.5/10 (10 if you like the real soft feel like me)

Price: 9/10, cheaper than most other top of the line stuff

So overall, I'd give it a 9.5/10, since if I gave it 10 that would mean I'd be sinkin' chip shots and firein' approach shots close all the time, heh.

Yeah man i agree on your wedge. Considering that i have tried the exact wedge your talking about and it felt nice. But in my opinion, all top brand wedges are quite similar in proformace( at least thats what i found). I still don't know if i'll ever buy one of those 60*s in the near future, still kind of a Sand and Gap wedge guy.
