Get many greenside chips in? Curious on performance there a little more specifically.

Quite a bit. I've historically been one to get the ball on the green as quick as possible and let the ball run out to the hole. Mostly that was out of necessity, as I struggled with greenside spin. These wedges are really going to shine greenside. The Z grind really really set me up consistently greenside better than the Full Toe, for my swing.

Yesterday's round was a lot of trying to dunk it, because it was a one-hop stop right where it landed. That said, I could get it to run out if i wanted, but this club wants to put spin on the ball. Moving to the CSX ball and this wedge, is an incredible match. I had no issues of chunking a wedge, everything was just a nice spinny ball right where it landed. I had only had 1 of a handful of shots run out past the hole, and that's because i wanted to play a low runner, and I thinned it just a bit.

Awesome, love to hear it 🔥
 
@xThor any early impressions on spin retention in wet conditions?

it’s hot and dry here so I can’t say anything to wet as of yet. Removing the plating and cutting more aggressive grooves on the face should create more friction, which should be better in wet conditions. I can definitely see where they would claim more spin in wet conditions vs Md5

You're saying everything that I have been needing in a wedge. I need that Z grind so much

I'm thinking I'm going to need a 50 S grind and a 54 W grind. I am sad I won't be able to get the black plasma, but chrome will have to do.

Yea, I trust @xThor. If he says they are better, they are better. That leading edge just looks SOOOO much better!

I hear ya. I've been happy with every Callaway club I've hit, so I feel pretty confident I'll like these as well.
 
Building new wedges on the bed of your truck in the course parking lot is a great conversation starter. People notice #Lunatics. Just fyi.:p

Only a judgey person would judge it as crazy.

Especially when the first 2 proximities are 7 and 9 feet. :D

These are great on this turf.
