ping tour wedges are incredbable
i'm a stupid ho and my name is Paul....when i do a bag i like to get as close to one OEM as possible..so when i was on my tm kick..it was all tm.....one problem though...wedges...i only carry a gap and 56*...i figure that as i'm not out there every day practicing..i'm going to use only one wedge and get really good at it...i've been through three or four "tour" boxgrooved tm wedges and just never got any decent spin with them...

i went ping here recently and grabbed a 56 tour wedge..brought it home and ground down the heel a little so i could open it up more...and damn..the thing is a freak...i can pop it up from just off the green and it will sit down so soft..it's scary...it is by far the best wedge i've used in a long long time...from the fairway and rough it's very good too...will cut up the ball a little but not like a zodia....

a great all around wedge...amazed at how versatile it is and the amount of spin i can put on touch shots...old news i know..but for me it's new..

i liked the retail satin for a gap wedge as it did release and i didn't want to suck the ball back with a gap...but they still don't compare to the ping tours for flops and pure bite...the sw is the only club i want to do this with and can get release with it too...but man can i make that thing just stick...

I've been looking at these wedges myself and am trying to determine if they come in 2 different finishes or just the chrome. Also, are there bounce options on the 54 and 56?

Ping Tour wedges come in two finishes: chrome (with ferrule) and a brushed, non-glare finish...I think its called guysen (without ferrule). As mentioned by another member, WRX can custom grind your wedges. Ping also has a low bounce model (8*) available... although I'm not sure it it available on all of their wedges. I have the 58* with low bounce and the "TS" grind, which collectively, make this an insanely good wedge.

PING tour Wedges now come in black nickel... (pinggolf.com/media)

I just order 2.. a 54 and 58.. 58 in 8* bounce with heel relief..

 

PING also claims they measure bounce a bit differently.. 8* bounce being equivilant to 4* in other OEM's wedges

has anyone else had the problem feeling like they lost yardage with these wedges. I had a 56 with a stock shaft mind you, but I could kill the thing and hit it 90 yards when I was hitting my cleveland 105. It could very easily have been the shafts and now I've moved on to 54 58 combo as well. I want a review of the black tour wedges as well when someone gets thier hands on a set (the clevelands need a rest)

TBD - G430 Max 15* - 818 H2 19*- Sub 70 Pro 23* - i525 6-U - SM9 54* / 58* / 62*  - F22
