As John Barba asked me one time, “Can you keep a secret???”

I replied, “Heck yeah!”

He then says, “So can I!”

I did learn that this whole thing about CG location in wedges is kind of BS.... So, it’s not a new technique of placing CG, at least primarily.

Now I have two weeks to think of countless theories and OEMS that these are coming from

Heard the secret line before as well.


Interesting statement on the CG and wedges being BS when TXG posted a wedge video that talked about the CG location and how it impact flight and spin. Not saying either is right or wrong; just an observation since I can’t prove one way or the other.

Big brand or small time?

Was thinking the same thing.  Granted human error comes into play, but I feel the TXG guys do a pretty good job of ensuring launch conditions are very similar on the shots they choose to use for comparison.

So what is Edel coming out with

Good call; given that I read about changes coming from Edel and that he went to get his putter updated it makes perfect sense.

LOL...I think @GolfSpy Barbajo has used that line on a lot of us over the years....ha

Can I talk to your little birdie? I need to know more

[sirchunksalot 10,170]

This should be interesting. Is it the wedge that changed the wedge?

spoken like a true Ho. The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem. I’m proud of you!

Interesting though. CG has been quite a talking point lately in the wedge world.

You’ve piqued my interest [mention]PMookie [/mention]

even if I’m not in the wedge market. I love a good tech story.

CG is actually outside of the wedge club head when it’s at address. When hanging perfectly vertical, it might be in the head, but once the club is grounded and ready for use, CG is outside the head on an angle from the shaft above the head. With driver, this is not the case since the size of the head allows area away from the shaft. TXG isn’t studying true CG, they’re studying/displaying differences from a purely weighting standpoint. They’re just using the marketing language as the basis. Physics doesn’t allow the CG to be in the wedge head at address.

Grab your wedge and hold it vertically. Then hold it an angle similar to how it would be at address. It’s impossible now for the TRUE “center of gravity” to be in the head.
