the smallest change = the biggest results!!!

ns 1150 tour shafts X flex .125 over my standard length
lie angle at 62* on ALL wedges

58* bent to 61*
52-56-61 set all same shafts all same perfect pro cord grips

i now have the wedges to play on tough short grass. that spin like blazes
no need to worry about if these spin . man oh man they do i ndeed!

i havnever played better wedge play than yesterday chip in eagle form 30 yards.
5 , yes 5 wedge shots inside 6 feet.

for me thats incredible. it wasnt how i did it thats important, its what the ball did when i hit it that counts

crisp. check. side spin reverse.
perfectrion

the soles on them are really small but the back is chunky.
so that gives it its thump

fabulous wedges just fabulous
hope they dont make any more of these , they will become a collectors item GUARANTEED

ah my wedge solution has emerged
tourstage marus for deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep lush
yamaha for crisp sweeping.

took these to oz 3 sets.
ns wv 120------shimada wedge------ns 1150 x shafted
played most games on kaikuya grass, and a few on cooche
the kaik is VERY tough grass. hitting down hard on this results in sore elbows.
the tiny soles on the yammys was a perfect tonic. these really do spin well and the pop off the face is very noticeable.
left a set down there time e memorium , the vw shafted ones. i liked the way they popped ,esp when it got windy.
i though these were best sutied to oz of them all.
the shimadas i like ot keep in JP and the 1150 get the ball much higher when its not blowing which i japan most of the time.
really cant see any fault withte VWshafts i know a few guys ddint like them, but they were clearly my favs donw there.
i bent one to 49* aswell to sue with the yammy tour irons,
oh THAT was a great thing to do. thats my fave wedge love this if anyones thinking of gettign another pw and bending it

DONT
instead, get a 52* wedge and make it strongner , its a fabulous idea. thye play so much better than PW.
to be honest. id prefer to get rid of the PW in most sets and strong another wedge, they arre totally different.

the yammies reaffirmed thier spot in my bag alongside the tourstages

J.

Gun blue in general doesn't hold up so well. Raw polished, well that depends on a couple of things. First how humid it is in your neck of the woods and secondly how well you take care of your wedges. Hand done finishes usually don't hold up so well.
