Have a bit more and I’ll be sure to get you in the loop. I am expecting them to arrive in sat and with any luck I can get some first impressions that same day but if not I’m gonna be playing 18 on Monday regardless. Sunday I’m gonna be down the shore for Father’s Day and the clubs will unfortunately be staying home.

It's almost time....

@ZMendle10 @MaxEntropy I'm glad you guys said something because I kept getting emails saying I was getting a delivery tomorrow and I was expecting a baseball glove fory son. I went back and checked,

Got them in at like 7 last night so trying to head to the range this morning. I'm a big fan right off the bat.

Clubs are in Ill start updating in the coming days.

[MaxEntropy]

Hopefully can get to the range later today or tomorrow.

Not too shabby for the first time out with them....

15 balls, a few tap-ins and a few reasonable one-putts. These were with the 54 (low bounce) from a tight lie. The 58 feels like it will take a little more getting used to.

That's a really nice dispersion for 15 balls. How's the feel coming off the face?

Really nice when it comes off the center. I can definitely feel off-center strikes, but it still seems to do what I want it to, more or less.

What dies the 58 feel like?   It takes more getting used to than your old 58?

Bounce is nearly the same as old one but it just feels like it interacts with the turf a little differently.

Intros are up! Check them out (these ones are good and you won't want to miss them)

[Caddie1966]

Congratulations to you four lucky spies.  Enjoy the process.  I look forward to seeing your reviews and progress as I am in the market for new wedges. 

[ZMendle10]

Wedges arrived yesterday right after I finished all of the house chores. I was not able to do any testing as I was going out to dinner in a few hours so I didn’t have any time to take the plastic off the wedges but I did open up the box and take a good amount of pictures from the unboxing process. 
 

Here’s a sneak peak though at some of the unboxing process while I work on going into more detail in my testing post. 

 

I’m unable to do any testing today since I’m down the shore for Father’s Day but I’m playing 18 tomorrow so they are going right from the plastic coming off the course.

Unboxing has been added to my review post and can be found here.  Tomorrow for testing can’t come quick enough.

Is my punishment for living in AZ seriously extended shipping times...?

[ZMendle10]

Grips are on and ready to go. Let the testing begin!!

[ZMendle10]

Played 18 yesterday broken up at 2 different courses and so far my 2 takeaways are these are a fairly forgiving wedge on mishits and I need to get my lie angles dialed as my strikes are living very heel side and are uncomfortably close to the hosel. My first impressions will dive into a ton more detail once they are posted in about a week. 

[CB Lobo 4 Life]

Really, Really hoping that today I can get the wedges soon enough to post an unboxing & get my grips on! 

[DonnieGolfs]

Took the clubs to the local simulator with GCQuads. 

This was with Titlest Pro V1s (About 50 shots) using the 58° wedge.

All off the turf, only a handful of all out swings mostly just good stock swings to see how consistent the wedge would be. Pretty tight dispersion for me and the number of shots I took.

This was the face after the swings. Brushed right off.

IT IS TIME...

I had the same thing with my Sub70 irons, kinda wonder if it is a bit of a weight thing. 

More likely my swing

@DonnieGolfs seems to have the same thing going on a bit as well based on his last photo.
