Artisan Golf Wedges- Mike Taylor and the old "Oven" crew that made Tiger's clubs

Recommended Posts

So jealous bro... THAT is what a wedge is supposed to look like... and if they feel as good as they look.... good God.

With the lack of offset and some not readily apparent strategic weight placement to match my preferred feel?, they do? Thanks for the compliment on look, MT just a bit experienced in translating player preferences into an effective tool that inspires confidence.

I don't doubt that one bit... how is the spin compared to the SM7, MD4, Rotex 2.0, MG, etc?

When the guys make wedges generally available with new forging stock, sure that loft will be available. Best way to proceed would be to send them an email regarding any specific requests because of vast options and building capabilities, loft not usually a limitation, just a matter of getting offset, bounce, leading edge height, sole width, etc... where player needs for performance and prefers regarding look from address.

For mine, grooves were cut in house and although conforming, absolutely most consistent and reliable spin of any product I have tried, and I test a lot of stuff, rarely making changes unless significantly better for my game. As MT is fond of saying, lots of factors involved in making sure player can get contact in "money grooves" to provide consistency.

Well I was at Artisan Friday and had an awesome day.

 

Everyone was so welcoming and nice, loved hearing all the stories and of course the highlight was getting the putter fitting.

 

Coopers BBQ was dam good.

Jamil and Mike were great lunch buddies.

Interesting tech in the putters.

John certainly knows his stuff with the fitting.

Interesting watching and listening to John as you go through all the putts, long/short/left to right and right to left.

Final spec for me was not what I was expecting.

 

I can't wait for the putter in a few weeks.

 

If anyone is on the edge of deciding on a putter or wedges, I couldn't recommend them more, after going through it all. If I had not gotten RAW SM7s I would have had 4 wedges from them also. Will get pics up when it arrives.

I had one putt with mallet and John said, ye don't you ever use a mallet.

 

Do love the stuff they can do to the coloured bits on the bottom though.

The mallet you pictured must be a prototype? Machining work in the cavity looks a bit sloppy as you can see the tool printing in the corners.
