I hope we will be seeing some lefty options in a raw “finish”.   Whatever happens, I like what Wilson has done this far!

I like it.  As someone who is a fan of the history of golf, Im happy to see Wilson seeming to step up their game and get back to being somewhat who they used to be.

I love the shape of my HiToe Taylor Made 60* but the clicky feel is less than desirable.

A similar shape with a little more smooth would be quite nice.

Lucky Ducky... Can't wait to hear about it. I have tried both the original PM grind high toe, and the TM version. So far I have not been too big of a fan. I love the idea of score lines all the way across the face. That just makes sense. I simply have not gotten the performance I am looking for out them. I have gotten better results out of a standard shaped wedges. Especially on more full type shots.

Not sure how much you can say about a wedge hitting off a mat at a heated driving range, but here are some  initial impressions:

- For me, High Toe is a great partial swing, around the green club - doesn't work for me on full shots.

- If you can't hit a flop shot with a High Toe, you can't hit a flop shot - this makes it stupid easy.

- The ball gets up fast with a flop - the mat is obviously about a tight of a lie as you can get, and the ball got up so quickly it nipped the edge of the roof overhang and clanged around. Other golfers were not impressed.

- The higher CG made the thing spin like crazy. When you can hop 'n stop a range ball on ice, you know there's some spin. 

- Standard wedge is sweet, simple and versatile enough. I only had a 60-degree to try, but it did the job. Wasn't as easy to open up as the High Toe, but plenty versatile.

- For me, an ideal setup might be a 50 and a 54 in standard, and maybe a 60 in High Toe for around the green and the sand. If I play the MacGregors (43-degree PW), would go 48, 52, and then a 56 high toe. 

- The full face grooves take some getting used to visually - it's a weird sight. You will be seeing more full face groove options in the coming weeks.

I read that the sole is fairly narrow in the 60, but with 10 degrees of bounce. Does the leading edge sit fairly close to the ground or is it more similar to the current PMP standard grind option?

Looks like it sits pretty close to the ground - not all that rounded. It's more of a Tour grind.

Finally got a chance to test these out on Saturday.  They definitely aren't the softest forgings in the world.  You won't confuse these with Miura's any time soon.  However, the feel and sound meshes very well with the Staff Model blades. It has a solid "crack" at impact.  Spin was excellent. 10+ with the 50 degree and with the the High Toe 56 I was getting around 7500 on half and 3/4 shots.  The High Toe seems to have a smaller footprint that either the PM grind or the TM version, which I like.  I wish there were more grind options, but the 56 High toe's leading edge sat close enough to the ground for me that I don't worry about it.  It will be replacing my RTX 4 two dot (which I never really got along with because it skimmed too easily through the sand leading to bladed shots) with the High Toe.  The standard 50 and 60 will be in the bag as well.  I might have to grind down the 60 a little bit, but the first shot hit the flag from 50 yards so maybe not lol
