The Details
One lucky winner will win a prize package that is absolutely insane courtesy of THP, Edel Golf and Club Champion. You will be flown to Chicago with your clubs, where we will pick you up from the airport and bring you to Club Champion HQ where you will meet the team and get fit from Brad Syslo for new Edel SMS wedges. From there you will learn a little bit about how they build clubs and the process they go through to make them perfect. Then it is dinner and drinks before heading to hotel for a quick night of sleep before a round of golf the next morning before heading home later that day.
If you missed our information and review of the new Edel SMS wedges, you can watch it below.

Never been fit for wedges
The changeable weights are the star for me. Being able to manipulate weight and cg location is something that’s missing in not just wedges, but most clubs on the market.

Have you had a Wedge Fitting Before? Yes
Favorite Aspect of the Edel SMS Wedges (See Video Above) A couple of things, I love the adjustability and personalization that brings wedges into the customization sphere that woods and putters have been for a while. I also like the subtle graphics, allowing for stamping or leaving them plain and shiny!

3. Never been fit for wedges
4. the swing match weighting, being able to fine tune the way I swing my wedges & control the ball well. It should prevent my shots from being left out to the right. Really would love to see what the fitting would be like because my wedges are where I score

Favorite Aspect of the Edel SMS Wedges (See Video Above)
The moveable weights have to be the cool part, I’ve done it with my driver, fairway and putters, but never wedges, it would be great, especially with the help of an expert to dial in wedges to match your game. And as a steep swinging player I’d be curious to see what the weight might do to help.

I’ve never been fit for wedges before.
Favorite Aspect of the Edel SMS Wedges:
