Posted January 6, 200718 yr I just want to share this picture with those interested in wedges. I brought a 49 degrees AW last November in Thailand but still have not play with it since the season is already over in Canada. This is old school Japanese workmanship (not unlike hand-made sushi knifes) and probably not technically advance as in wedge design but how can anyone resist the 'raw' beauty of it. For some reason, the grip is a black/yellow Hiro Matsumoto as stardard equipment. Enjoy the picture.
January 6, 200718 yr Beautiful! I got a chance to see a couple at my fitters shop. I thought the rough grainy finish was cool.
January 6, 200718 yr Author They look top notch to me.Do they make a 59* or 60* lob wedge?? You can take a look at their site at www.golfmall.co.jp/yururi/ Mine is stamped in Japanese characters while there is an option for painted word "Yururi". I love the raw finish like Zodia years ago.
January 6, 200718 yr This is a very old wedge yet very sweet, 4 years old. I know the owner, he also owns golfmall in Japan and distributes EGG wedges too.
January 7, 200718 yr Author Out of curiousity, what would be the price on the wedges?God Bless Jer I think they are listed for 17,000 yen for steel shaft and 19,000 yen for graphite. I paid 6,000 baht in Bangkok which is approx USD180. Not too reasonable since it was in a large department store and I did not care if it was a little high.
January 12, 200718 yr Great wedges and spins the ball like crazy. The lofts comes in 53*, 57* and 61*. Baht 6k is a good price since it has gone up slightly since. It is sold with the headweight sticker intact and it's about 300-305 grams. Cheers -Keng
January 12, 200718 yr Great looking wedge, i really like the finish on it! but more so i love the jap writting on the wedge - really looks funky!
January 12, 200718 yr Got a bunch coming at 155.00 Each plus shipping guys.. How would you compare them to other wedges (Fourteen, Epon, Y Cutter, Zodia, etc.)? When are they coming in? Can you get this wedge in a 64* loft? Which shaft works best?

I don't care for these because they rust up so quick. If you like rust its not a bad choice. Id take an Epon wedge any day. They should be here in 4-7 days. no 64, it can be bent but it will change the bounce for the negative.

How do the Epons compare to the Fourteens?
