Still no address pics? I like'em, but I'm playing the best wedges I've ever played.
New Wedges!

To each his own but I think they are very nice looking. They stand out in a crowd of wedges that all look the same,
and perform as well if not better.

My 1st time out with the Tille wedges they performed near dang perfect. This is coming from a guy who is rusty and had not played much this year due to foot surgery.
I played 18 with some friends at a so so local course. This is important because this course has IMO crap sand traps. I play this course for fun, and have been known to take an agreed upon stroke penalty to avoid some of these traps. Not nice white sand, but dirty looking dirt mixed with sand...crap.
The Tille performed like a champ for me out of the sand, and also for one of my buddies who wanted one in graphite instead of the KBS Tour like I have. Another friend now is thinking about a set.
The 52 stuck the green on approach several times, and I was overall playing rusty. I personally think they look good. Different and unique looking. They get attention.
If they work for you that is great. I could never get over the look, will stick with my MD3's.
I am most interested by the performance of these, or any other wedge, in closely mown conditions. I can't remember the last time I had to hit a SW or GW from the rough, so that aspect of these clubs doesn't interest me that much. Of course, their performance from the sand is always of interest, but I don't usually struggle from the sand. But it's those pitches around greens where the grass is really short that really get me, particularly in wet/soft conditions. A wedge that deals with those conditions is what is of real interest to me.
From the pics you posted they look great at address. Steve, you are right, can't beat the eye 2 wedges. I have the PM grind wedges, I know you didn't care for yours, and they are nice but the eye 2 are supreme.
kelco9 I can tell you I used the 52 Tille for all my approach shots both on the short grass as well as thick. It did great! Spun the ball like crazy too.

My gap wedge is an Eye 2+ with the modified sole grind. 50 degree weapon!
Sand wedge is 56 degree standard
I, too, thought the original Eye 2 SW was 56 degrees. But it's not like I know anywhere near as much about ping clubs as Steve does, so I'll defer to his expertise.

But I do not want them with a shaft Sam I Am, I want just the head I said. Give me components or give me death!
