juspoole Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 Damn - these fittings from you and @dlow206 just keep making more angry at Edel for not offering anything for a Left Handed golfer.

PMookie Posted June 9, 2021 Author Share Posted June 9, 2021 I was in Jackson, MS, today and went by the store so we could call Edel and finalize the order. All that needed ironing out were the shafts. Edel is going to come-through for me and get me the Nippon Modus 130 Stiff shafts. They’re going to be soft-stepped, but I can’t remember if they’re doing it just once or twice…. The builds should start Thursday, and I should have them within a couple weeks!!!! cnosil and dlow206 2 Quote Driver: Ping G430 Max 9*, Ping Tour 70X Fairway: Ping G425 15*, Ping Tour 70X Hybrid: Ping G425 22*, Ping Tour 80X Irons: Ping i230 4-GW, TT DG X100 Wedges: SMS 50D/54V/58DModus 130 stiff, +1” Putter: EAS 1.0 Ball: Titleist 2023 AVX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BostonSal Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 I REALLY like the look of the new Edel wedges, PARTICULARLY the C grind. A 48-54-60 set, 1º flat, 6º up from my 9-iron, with shafts and grips to match my irons, would probably be right down my alley, but I don't know where I could try them. I've been burned too often ordering stuff on faith that it would suit me.

If Edel could tell me that their actual bounce on the 54 C grind is 8º, I could very happily buy it without a fitting. They're not telling me that, however, so I must keep looking or strengthen a 56 and be very unhappy with the stamping.

Question: have you ever seen an Edel wedge, the new SMS or the prior generation, in-person? Reason I ask is that I’ve had both, and I’ve never seen ANY other brand of wedge have the leading edge tight to the ground like an Edel. How is it that a Vokey with 8* of “bounce” can’t have the leading edge flush with the ground at address? The leading edge is always up above the ground, and part way up the ball. That’s not 8* of bounce….. Edel wedges remove a LOT of the excess area behind the heel/hosel so that the wedges actually sit dead flat to the ground. Maybe you’ve seen them in-person, and have set them side-by-side other wedges, but if you haven’t you’ll see that all other major wedge brands don’t sit the same as an Edel. Not trying to argue or change your mind, by the way, just information. What we “see” greatly affects our performance. Totally get it. Here’s a video of David talking about why his wedges have higher “effective” bounce.

If strengthening a 56 is going to cause an issue because of the number on the club, you're just making things needlessly difficult on yourself. I'm sure Artisan will spec out what you need if you want to go custom. Or do your own grind on a 54 with 10 degrees of bounce. Grinds will differ between companies which will make the bounce play different at the same number. https://ping.com/en-us/blogs/proving-grounds/effective-bounce BostonSal and BIG STU 2 Quote G425 MAX Driver & 5W Baffler Rail-H 3H-4H 699 Pro Utility V2 - 4i APEX CF19 6-AW INDI Wedges 52, 56, 60 EAS 2.0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berg Ryman Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Mookie, can't wait to see how the SMS work for you this season. They were a potential pick in my recent fitting at CC, but just a bit too inconsistent on spin compared to some of the other options.

BostonSal Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 If I end up spending $800 on a C-Grind 48 / 54 / 60° set, bought sight unseen from an internet order, all three at 63° lie and 35½" as is my practice, with Tour Wrap 2G grips because that's on everything but my putters, and graphite shafts that don't match my irons because ones that do aren't offered--- if I actually do that--- I'm never going to admit it if they don't work out. I'm going to say that they're the best wedges I've ever owned and that they're better wedges than I had ever imagined were possible because if I don't say that I'll look like the dumbest guy who's ever posted on the internet. I've got the winter to stew over it. But if I do it, I'll be here in the spring saying that they're the best wedges ever made.

shardy Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 @PMookie I appreciated your write up about getting fitted. I have never though about this level of detail or the need for getting custom fitted for wedges. I have always used rack clubs. Trying a few different lofts to get even distribution of distance. I came across your post while looking for recommendations on new wedges. Just recently gashed my sand wedge by a hidden rock buried in a bunker. I'm new to mygolfspy and this is my first post. So I don't know what interest people or what kind of response I'll get. I have been using a 52, 56, 60 deg combo made by Cleveland. Not sure of the model. I'll have to look when I get to the car. Yes I keep my clubs in the trunk. Never know when the opportunity will come to hit the links. They are a few years old and needed replacing. Never got around to it because of $$$. I was looking at buying some less expensive Tour edge Hot Launch E522 ($89) in order to keep the cost down. Now I'm thinking I should go through a fitting and get this done right. I'm satisfied with the range of my current wedges. 100-120 yds is the 52 deg. Over 120 I use my PW which is 46deg. Everything less than 100 yds I use the 56. When chipping around the green I'll generally use the PW. The 60 deg is a solid (very accurate) 80-85 yds, only use it in that distance or if I have to get over something high. I'm open to suggestions from others how they have approached new wedges especially with keeping the cost down. I also would like a recommendation for a good wedge fitter in the SLC, UT area.

Sluggo42 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 So after a year or so in your bag Mookie, do you still feel like you’re getting the flush hits you got during your fitting? Any new thoughts or revelations about them? I dig the Edel “fittings” , as I was fit for an Edel putter, and it’s still firmly in the bag, with zero thoughts of trying anything else. I imagine their wedges probably elicit the same thoughts… GrumpyGolf and PMookie 1 1 Quote TSr2 on tensi blue stiff Speedzone 3-wood on Tensi blue S Epic Max 5 and 7 woods on HZRDUS Reg flex Paradym 9 wood on HZRDUS reg flex P770 / P790 combo set on Ventus R-6 shafts 6-AW T22 Denim Copper 54°, 58° on Kinetic X Trajectory ER3 or, E.A.S. #4 (“Fang” or “Adele”) ProV1x, or, Maxfli Tour X .Org 14 cart bag Adidas Tour 360 , or Sketcher shoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine their wedges probably elicit the same thoughts… Yes, still very happy with them and I’m still amazed how consistent I am with them. At Edel 2 weeks ago I got on the monitor with all three to make sure the fitting was still good and they were all still clustered in little groupings on full shots. I still have chipping yips and these have helped with that as well due to confidence and their look. It’s absolutely eye-opening having gone through the fitting and if you get the chance to do one, it will be for you as well! My putter and wedges aren’t going ANYWHERE!!! cnosil, GrumpyGolf, ejgaudette and 1 other 4 Quote Driver: Ping G430 Max 9*, Ping Tour 70X Fairway: Ping G425 15*, Ping Tour 70X Hybrid: Ping G425 22*, Ping Tour 80X Irons: Ping i230 4-GW, TT DG X100 Wedges: SMS 50D/54V/58DModus 130 stiff, +1” Putter: EAS 1.0 Ball: Titleist 2023 AVX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the Edel site they offer lots of shaft options but most seem to be R and S. Since they seem to be one of the few that offer a wide range of shafts in the wedges it might be best to reach out to Edel directly and see if they can provide the shaft you want or head only so you could install the shaft. fozcycle 1 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54/12D, 60/8M w/:Accra iWedge 90 Graphite Putter: Sacks Parente MC 3 Stripe Backup Putters: Milled Collection RSX 2, mFGP2, Futura 5W, TM-180 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
