Aesthetically initially I like the clean looks of them but I think they can be a little cleaner especially without the "Biting Rail Milled" stamping. Also I think the Tour B logo on the sole is something to just get clogged with crap. It shouldn't effect a shot by any means but as a guy that always keeps his clubs clean after shots this would drive me crazy having to brush out crap out from there all the time.
As far as feel, I thought they felt really good. They are pretty soft. Not the softest "bladed" wedge out there but they do feel nice. They look great over the ball except the sharp edge by the hosel. When you open the blade up to me it really exposes it and screams hosel rocket. I put a couple other brands next to it after I noticed it and they were much "softer" and not as pronounced. Im not going to get into a "these spin like crazy" bit because they are new wedges so they are going to spin a ball fine which they do but that's expected.
I havnt looked at the specs from Bridgestone but I assume they offer more bounce options? I didn't think the bounce was bad on his, but I would of liked more as his has a little to much relief for me.
Over all I would give them 3.5 out of 5
But I do know he is liking them and he hit some fantastic shots this past weekend.
Good review
The logo on the sole doesn't bother me but im not near as OCD as you. I do agree on the biting rail milled stamping though, im not a big fan of it. It would really clean it up without that. I am liking the feel of them, that's my biggest green light these. I didn't notice leading edge by the hosel until you said something but I don't open the blade much or at all as you know so this doesn't bother me. And yes I put up some dirtyyyyyyyy shots this past weekend with these lol
