jaskanski Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Nice. The 'EF' is actually the electroformed groove and face made from nickel cobalt. The main advantages of this design is long lasting groove sharpness. If anyone remembers the old Ram TW wedges from a few years back, they made a few in cobalt with "spin grooves" which were an absolute beast. Many pros couldn't get their hands on them fast enough... Should be a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaskanski Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Here's the "old" Ram design: Clearly the "spin groove" text struck a chord with TM. Needless to say the new TM wedges have conforming grooves whereas the Rams unfortunately do not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revkev Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Who cares? That was my thought so I figured that I'd share it. I'm happy with my wedges, if I were to look for new wedges I'd go Hogan, Ping (had great success with Ping wedges in my lifetime), Wilson, Mizuno and I'm quite certain I wouldn't have to look anywhere else past that. In fact I'm certain I wouldn't make it past Hogan. Sorry TMag, I will look at you for driver/fairway metal. You were the one that marketed yourself that way and while you did I went elsewhere for irons/wedges/hybrids and I struck gold. No need to darken your door for those pieces of equipment. Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60 Aldila R flex - 42.25 inches SMT 4 wood bassara R flex, four wood head, 3 wood shaft Ping G410 7, 9 wood Alta 65 R flex Srixon ZX5 MK II 5-GW - UST recoil Dart 65 R flex India 52,56 (60 pending) UST recoil 75's R flex Evon roll ER 5 32 inches It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aotearoa_Brad Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 First impression is they look really busy - may perform well, but there are enough options out there for wedges that you can get both looks and performance, so these wouldn't be near the top of my list.

Sir Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I have always thought Tmade wedges were underrated! I like the look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fozcycle Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I will stick with my new to me SCOR's. I have been hitting my wedges very deadly from 90 yards to 10 yards.

Baseballfrk8998 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Not a huge fan of the looks.. Other than that I'm sure they're fine. At the end of the day it's a wedge... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
