Help!! Who makes the best 58 degree wedge for a digger. (big Divot)

How about a TM Bigfoot Wedge?  They have a 58d with 15d of bounce (which is a lot for a lob wedge).

Agree with above if you like larger footprint wedges.  I had one for a time last year, and while I thought it did a great job greenside and in the thick crap you can find yourself in, it just didn't work from the fairway, for me personally anyway.  

 

Admittedly I haven't tried other other OEM's offerings as the appearance doesn't appeal to me.

Cleveland CBX2 is a nice wedge with a wide sloe

 

Second this. 

 

I used them for a while, and I liked them better for full swings than little touch shots. I was always conscious of the big wide sole and I think it got in my head.

Need information as I want to buy a wedge.Tried Vokey. Not for me. Like big headed wedges.

Big head as in forgiving?

 

Digging is a function of sole width and bounce. You want to look for wedges with little to no sole relief

Cleveland Smart Sole sand wedge.  It's 58 degrees, and has a very wide sole to help you not dig.  That's at the extreme end of the spectrum.  For something a little more in the middle, try the CBX or CBX 2.  Don't let the size of the Smart Sole turn you off, either.  You can still hit a good variety of shots around the green with it, and it's awesome for full swings too.

I second that.  If that wedge can't help the OP, no wedge will.

It's hard to get much less dig-resistant than CBX2 (or CBX Full-Face). I think it's going to help the digging as much as even the more extreme Alien/SmartSole type wedges without being quite so "out there". the CBX-family clubheads are bigger in hand than they look in photos.

MD family definitely worth looking at. Choices:

  • MD4: 58*/12 W and 58*/12 X (X, or extreme, has more cut away than W)
  • MD5: 58*/8 WL (wide sole, low bounce), 58*/12 W and 58*/12 X (see above for W and X)

 

Note: MD4 LWs still available, new and used. / MD5 current production model.
