New TaylorMade wedges - July 2019

[BreakingPar]

These kinda look like a throwback or subtle nod to the first gen ATV wedges without the "fang". Loving the look!

Not exactly raw faces, but remember the infomercials for Carbite wedges?

I normally like very traditional looking wedges, but for some reason I like these, I think.

[Pepe8714]

The 60 degree has much more offset and a much more rounded leading edge than the current milled grind.

 

The 56 has similar offset to the current, but a significantly rounder leading edge.

 

I like offset in wedges, but with a straighter leading edge.

SR-71 Sweet!

The old viper bite wedges?

[IvanDrago]

rust face technology like my m4 3 wood

 

[martinritch]

If only the hi-toes had that leading edge profile and low bounce option!!!!

[hwwong]

"Mullet Wedge". Business in the front, absurdity in the back.

[boggyman]

Just plain ole butt ugly!!

It amazes me the number of knuckleheads here. First: The look at address is the only "look" that matters unless one can't play and likes to hang around the bag rack! Second if one pays attention you can see that there is technology in play here, weight taken from the low mass and redistributed higher up the back of the club for better flighting, but they don't carry it all the way thus to give the player a thin top line look at address. Otherwise the labeling is simple and not cluttered.

Third: and very important to people that can really play is the sole grinds. The various bouces appear to have different grinds and very impressive to me is the heel relief (soft heel) which gives one great versatility! These are impressive even before considering the raw face with the grooves and etching.

You're not wrong, but there are some of us who prefer our clubs suit our eyes from top to bottom, left to right, and front to back. Just because the ugly goes away at address doesn't make it okay. At least not for everyone.

So your wife can’t get in bed til her hair is done? In case you turn her over and can’t see her face...

[elwhippy]

As a long time TM wedge user I will hold off until I see them in the metal. Address looks great but the rest of the design is a tad radical for me.

[TheMoneyShot]

I wonder if they will make ones that do not rust as well? As another poster already mentioned, lots of people do not want their wedges raw/rusting over at all.

Is it just me or does it look like MD Golf’s NV Drew wedges.

The back is definitely very close.

Decent looking wedge. That's going to mark up the cover of a ball pretty good. Folks better stock up.

[sheppy335]

These are different but want to see in person before I give my verdict

[Nate7357]

Hope they make a full raw version

[Bfishes333]

I could be wrong but the face reminds of when the mac daddy wedges first came out.

[doctorjedi]

Release date?

I’m not a big tiger fan, but seeing him play a club with his very traditional taste does speak volumes.

Shocked to see this in TWs bag this week. Something special perhaps.

[GolfChannel]

These look like something from a late night infomercial. Pure Strike Wedge your time is officially up.

[ASN21]

They don’t look so bad in those last pictures. Need to see these in hand.

Thought I saw something that said he had a 56 in the new one, but his 60 was still the original MG. Could've been yesterday that I saw it, but it seemed to me like he was still testing them somewhat, not switching to the new ones completely yet.
