What Are Your Favorite Wedges - Component Or OEM?

I am pretty well set on everything in my bag except for wedges. I prefer something large like an 84mm blade length. What are your favorites either componen...

I’ve got them and they’re the best wedge head I’ve ever used.

Just for shits and giggles I put 2 in the cart... seem to be on sale...

no codes and they usually won’t give discounts on heads that are on sale (if you’re looking at the 431 head).

if you call them they’ll give you the old FGI discount (10% off) on the Felon heads.

i didn’t realize shipping was so cheap anyway.

My favorites right now are Cleveland CBX Full Face wedges. They seem to work for me. My favorite component wedges were the original Snake Eyes that Golfsmith had. I can't remember what they were called though. I still miss a lot of the Snake Eyes stuff.

mulegolf I still miss a lot of the Snake Eyes stuff.

Same here.
Currently still playing the last good wedge they made (imo) which is the 685 BX.

I've got them too ... in 54° and 60°. No complaints at all.

Spuzz

I also miss my Accuspin (Purespin clone) sandpaper wedges.
😮

Spuzz YOu miss them from the fairway. You miss them in the rough and you miss them when you have a ball in the bunker. Sorry, I just had to. It was too easy. hahaha

You know that Roger made those things one mile up the road from me here in Oswego?

This thread has me bouncing back and forth to Ebay, lol.... 🤣 🤣

fatshot Yeah, I got on the DTG site and found they still had those DG-15 heads, only 48 *, which I didn't have. I will now, this week sometime. I did buy a set of the newer 431 heads also to build for the grandson.

colej the 431 look like they have quite a bit of relief on toe/heel/trailing edge vs. the chrome mist/shadow 2.0. Also looks like 431 has a straighter leading edge, but ??

I think the bounce was 10 degrees on the 58 which makes me question how it sits.... is the leading edge raised up because of it!

i think the leading edge on both look pretty close. The chrome mist is a smaller head size and longer hosel.

Sparky

Eguller What is the Buzzzzz on the new Maltby TSW wedges ?

I've found the TSW great on mid & full shots, but I get very little spin on chips. I had the RTX4 before that, and those were just the opposite...check for chipping, but too much spin on full shots. I think I need to carry 10 wedges.

Weirfan

Sparky I think I need to carry 10 wedges.

Ha, right now I likely have close to 10....different grinds and bounce for different seasons and conditions

have 5 in the bag but my scoring is the best in years so not likely to change as short game is a big reason for that. Sometimes I carry 15 but in comps obviously not and drop one of 4iron, 3hybrid or 4wood depending on the course being played.

The modeo wedges look nice for $25. They are similar to the avatar wedges.

These would be about perfect. Nice sole grind. Forged...really nice. I had a black maltby 58 years ago...no issues besides fast wearing black coating.

Another wedge comparison pic. Top is a 48° Inazone Microgroove and the bottom one is a 50° Acer XB Satin.

azgreg

At address the Microgroove looks huge compared to the XB.

Every good Ho should have at least 20 clubs in their bag (not competition) to ummm...'test'.

Subsonic

Weirfan Minimalist golf would lock your brain. 😀

ode

colej thx for the photos. Doesn't look like any relief on the sole of the CM 2.0 and pretty consistent sole width heel to toe. Hmmmm! My Wishon PCF Micro Tour is a such a solid performer, no real reason to change.

colej I found out why these 431 heads are so cheap. Because they are! Not sending them back, because this company continues to piss me off and I want nothing to do with them at all. And I'd have to pay shipping.

The 2 heads are as different as night/day, 50 & 56. The 56 has the appearance of an Acer XB, which is a horrible looking thing. The 50 weighs 310g., the 56 weighs 300g.. I also bought a 48 of the DG-15, just to match my 52 & 56. It also weighs 310g.. WTF is going on with that company? Heads in their asses now they are so popular with the Sub 70???

2 thumbs down, not recommended. 😠
