fullyb7705 0 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 (4) TESTERS WANTED admin-ajax.jpg PING Glide 2.0 Wedges Can PING's new wedges change your short game? For most golfers, the search for a new short game begins and ends with Vokey, Cleveland or Callaway – the Holy Trinity of Wedges. PING feels its new Glide 2.0 wedges should be part of that conversation, thanks to new sole grinds, improved groove technology and spin-preserving hydrophobicity (look it up). Add a host of no-upcharge shaft options and PING's legendary color-coded customization and you have a wedge the company feels belongs on the main stage. Testers Wanted! As you know, MyGolfSpy never takes an OEM's word for anything. We believe in #datacratic testing, and #PowerToThePlayer isn't just a hashtag, it's a mission statement.

simpy19 0 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Brian Commack, NY Chipping and controlled wedge shot from 80-100 is a strength.

caj4au 8 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Thanks for the opportunity! Chris Jarmon Opelika, AL My short game with my current Glide 1.0 set is pretty strong. My wedges save me many shots around the greens and I would consider myself a pretty decent player from 100 yards in, chipping around the greens and bunker play. My greatest short game weakness that has nothing to do with wedges, is putting. That is why it is important that I chip or land it close! 50* SS, 54* TS, 58 ES Black dot, standard length PX 6.0, Standard MCC plus 4 orange one wrap WITB: G LS Tec 10.5 Kuro Kage TiNi 60xG Stretch Kuro Kage TiNi 70x07' Burner TP Tour Issue 18* Ozik 8M2Anser 20* Attas 80Hy PrototypeiBlade 4-PW PX 6.0Glide 50* SS and 58* ES zz65Cameron Newport Select 35 inch "murdered out"Ping 4 Series White Link to post Share on other sites

tonybrown32 16 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Would love to try these... I have a whole Ping bag, glide wedges and g30 irons. Played the Eye2 wedges in the past as well, and am a big fan of the eye grind.. Tony Eau Claire, WI Short game is solid. Generally use my 56 with a high bounce for chipping. 40-50 yard pitches usually the 60 degree comes out, and enjoy using a little higher bounce wedge even in the 60.. 50 degree for the bump and runs and a lot of 3/4 and full shots.. my bump and run game needs a bit of help, and would appreciate a little more spin on the check up chips and pitches.. Hope I get the chance, to help with these..
