If I didn't already have plans I'd come down this weekend so we could test all of em

My 1st shot with em was 145 yrds into a 20mph headwind. 2 1/2 ft. SOLD. lol
They hit solid & turf interaction seamed good to me. Not saying long but I did get some of my yardage back. Some of it club & some me.
Hit one out towards the toe & wasn't penalized to bad. OH.. Was getting good bite. Had a couple hop back for me. Other stop dead.
So far a very happy with the purchase. playing again tomorrow & Saturday.
Some good thoughts pound cookie. It would be hard for me to pull the trigger on that without spending a good bit of time with one in the bag before the event.
As a mostly full swinger with a wedge, I don't see any good reason why you'd not go the route of set wedges cookie. Put one Tour Trusty in the bag for greenside work and utilize the benefits the set wedges offer elsewhere.
I know man...big change considering I've played a MB wedge for years. Less than $80 shipped though if I want to try it but been trying to avoid buying gear.
That's how I'm leaning. Being 90 yards out and comfortable attacking a pin is critical at these courses we will play. Don't want fear in my game with the TT's on fuller swings....dreaded chunks that I see sometimes.
These have all the forgiveness one could possibly want.
In reality, I don't know why anybody at normal amateur levels is full swinging a blade wedge when set wedges are an option. If I was full swinging wedges I'd want as much help as I could get, hence the reason I moved to a set GW. It's the only one I'll swing full.
So, it sounds like the set SW was a success Cookie?
I think that's awesome dude. Should be a lesson for the other full swingers out there.
Are you going to try it out of the sand? I wouldn't be surprised if you got some decent results there too - especially in the softer stuff.
good stuff cookie. Always good to find a club that you are confident in from those yardages. I have a feeling these are going to be your sticks down in Myrtle.
Thanks buddy. I have a feeling they will be as well. I hit the XL SW & 7i as much as possible yesterday in addition to the Bio Cell 6i.
No issues with offset on the 7i which was a nice confirmation to witness.
XL definitely has more forgiveness and is easier to launch higher. Thinking I take these from 6-SW and then start the hybrids but luckily I have a good bit of time to play with both options a bit more.
I'm liking the results I'm getting. No regrets with purchase. The ball gets up nicely & produces good shots. Also I'm having no problem with hold on the greens.
But still, the thick top line & big head w/offset are not the favorite look I like but hey it is what it is.
