Popeye64 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Wow. Im more than pleasantly surprised to see they kept a smaller head size yet gave the sole such a relieved leading edge. The past few years Maltby have embraced the 4 way or relieved sole all across the product line. It works for so many players yet still appeals to the better player by keeping a small profile.The MG Tour can be brutal in turf contact as its a sharp leading edge. These look like they will laugh at poor turf conditions. These are exactly what I would be looking for in a wedge. Had I not just reloaded with the M+ 52 56 I would be all over these.

So far, I haven't encountered anything that this club can't manage well. I might be an anomaly but I carry 2 56* wedges and am still conforming.

Popeye64 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 This is the M+. I can see design cues from this unto the TSW. Though the TSW has an even more pronounced relieved leading edge so that its more of a V sole. I couldn't wait for the TSW to be released but these have filled in my gaps nicely.

Plus it will have a softer feel with the Pearl finish instead of the DBM finish. I enjoy the all black look alot and right now its all through the bag except for the FDI and my Putter.

The accuracy and dispersion is just top notch. Plus the sole design is the perfect mix of players iron and game improvement. I shot my lowest round this year at -4 today.

I wondered about the same; TS-1 AW or TSW 50. I asked Golfworks what the differences were: "The shapes are different between the TS-1 GW and the TSW 50*. The TSW has a wider sole, more bounce. The TS-1 has a little more offset. Grooves are the same, "U" grooves. The TSW should have a little lower CG."

My personal reasoning for TSW was the fact my GW is primarily my 85% 100 yrd club and I need to dial this up a hair to adjust I can. Along with trying to use it a little more deliberately around certain green side shots with a touch more bounce.

azstu324 Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 Something I'm finding out more about the TSW.. or at least the 56° is that it's actually quite forgiving but with excellent feedback. I had an approach the other day that was 112 out. I immediately knew that I struck the ball high on the toe. My buddy was watching and said "great shot man!".. then in mid flight I said "naw man, it was super toey, it'll be short". It landed 5' short of the pin and about 2' offline. He then said, "not as toey as you thought huh?". Looked at the club and the ball mark was right in the top pocket of the toe. 1mm off and I probably would have shanked it. At most I lost 5-8 yds of distance and the direction was negligible. Not to mention, it just bounced once and slammed the breaks.Also, it just glides through turf and thick stuff pretty effortlessly. So far I'm finding no reasons to have any other wedge other than my set Gap (51°)Back spin on shorter shots and ability to control the amount of spin is really something else! The TSW quickly becoming a very strong candidate for favorite club. the more I practice, the luckier I seem to get.. edingc, Popeye64, tommc23 and 1 other 4 Quote PXG 0311 Gen 5 9°/ Fujikura MotoreX F1 6X F6 3 Wood 14* / Kuro Kage Silver 65X F8 6 wood 20* / Fujikura MotoreX F3 6S RADSpeed Hybrid 24* TS1 4-GW / FCM Precision 6.5 Rifle TSW Wedge - 56/12 EAS 1.0 / Grip master 2.0 MAXFLI Tour CG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
