What we say...
2013 Wedges Test
Certainly one of the most curved leading edges on test. The sole is quite square and flat so there wasn’t much workability. The ball tended to pop up on long pitches, creating a high flight and low spin. Kit really liked the shape and size and was surprised at how tight the 12° bounce sat to the ground, making it extremely versatile. Joel felt the sharp leading edge meant the club tended to dig in bunkers and would recommend higher bounce in the 56° and 60°.
