Phillip Alexander Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 Are we able to get a photo of the face of this wedge?? Amongst a number of very high quality wedges, this one could very well be my favourite. Quite frankly we are all spoilt with the offerings of Scratch, Epon, Yururi and the impending Chikara. No wonder we all love TSG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keen Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 Getting a real itch to buy one of these in 61* :D How is the head weight compared to the TM RAC Black TP? I beginning to think that the TP is too light for me. No clue about shaft selection so I think I would just take to my local fitter. How much for head only, shipped to Sweden? Thanks =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corky3 Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 Thank You =) Saw the shipping cost once I created an account. Any additional feedback from anyone who has hit it? They remind me of my Zodias (in looks) which are still in the bag as they are the wedges I'm most comfortable with at the moment..... sorry my response is less than useful .....

corky3 Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 Good enough, I'm buying. =] I hope they give you the same experiences my Zodias have for the past couple of years. They'll no doubt spin the ball like crazy at first, but then you come to rely on the feel..... good luck! ....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajaykkr Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 I will be buying the 61* with the S400 (so that it is heavy). But I want to combine with other future purchases to save on shipping. shipping one at a time can be expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffer19 Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 (edited) For what it is worth, I have the 49* Yururi since late last year from Thailand but it has been replaced now by a Epon 50* X wedge. It is true that the Yururi spins like crazy but I prefer a light shaft for full shot hence my Epon with a Shimada AC10 R flex. For around the green, any wedge would do. I might just reshaft the Yururi with a NSPro850 or graphite and see whether any difference. Edited May 3, 2007 by Duffer19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillip Alexander Posted May 3, 2007 Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 I have just been to the Pro Shop to have a look. These wedges are just beautiful and a real winner in my view. In addition the information and pictures are just first class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keen Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 The wedge was delivered this morning. Haven't had time to take pictures or examine it closely. But from what I can tell it looks beatiful and the craftmanship is outstanding. Will shaft it up today or tomorrow Thanks a lot for the quick and outstanding service. Much appreciated.

Keen Posted May 11, 2007 Report Share Posted May 11, 2007 Ok, got it shafted up today with a Harrison shaft, heavy...about 135 grams. Hit some balls indoors, so just some quick impressions. It's damn soft, super nice feel. And it chews balls (sounds kinky :S) like hell, even on chip shots :D I like! Tried it against an eidolon wedge and the feeling was night and day. The eidolon felt harsh in comparison. All in all, I can't wait to get it on the course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragon Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 Some close-ups before I shaft it up Dying to find out about your feedback! I actually just saw that the offering is from 41 degree to 61 degree. Awesome selection! I am just drooling over the fact that I can have same wedge performance from 9 iron down to 61 degree wedge. After all golf is mostly about 150 yards and inside if you keep the drive in play. How is the finish? Is it durable or will wear out over time and rust. Is spin better than with Fourteen V3 vs Epon technity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keen Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 So, here are a few more impressions after playing 36 holes yesterday. Unfortunately my short game is nowhere near what it was at the end of last season so bear that in mind. The feel to me is amazing. I'm coming from TM RAC Black TPs and the difference, again to me, is astounding. I had a heavier than usual shaft installed which took a bit getting used to, so my distance control was a bit off. But it feels much better than the regular TT ones in the TPs. It also spun much more than the RACs. I'm not good enough, yet, to spin it back but I did produce a few drop and stop shots. But it was also a bit hard on the balls :D I expect that will get better the more I use it. All in all I recommend it highly, but then again I haven't tried all the other great japanese brands so I can't really compare it in any way. However, this has opened up my eyes to jdm wedges and I really would like to try out some of the other ones, especially the epons I'll update my impressions when I get more time on the course and the range. Hopefully my short game will get up to its usual level as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajaykkr Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 The 61* degree Yururi Wedge just got delivered today. It will see the course on Friday. review to follow. Wedge game is one of my strengths. so, lets see how it compares to the Zodias KM tour Us spec, GFt Wedges, Gas 2 etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajaykkr Posted June 9, 2007 Report Share Posted June 9, 2007 (edited) Context... I generally play 52/56/59 zodia combination. My backup set is 52/56/60 GFT wedges.... But I have played many others, Titliest spin milled, y-cutters, Xtours, Gas 2 and Gas 1.... As i have become a better player with the driver........I have realized that I am either within the 10-40 yards from the green (par 5s or missed shots, or overshooting the green or getting a bad bounce... Coupled with the par 5s, long par 3s (on my course, three play close to 200 with severe dropsoffs) and some par 4s... I can find myself in this situation about 7-8 times a round if not more.... So I have learnt to hit the lob wedge very well.. However, the greens on my course are very fast (usually at 11-12), and severely undulating. You have to stop the ball on the right level....or you are facing a difficult put over 30-40 feet. With the zodia 59 (and most of the other wedges)....I needed to have a steeper swing, because of the higher bounce on japanese lob wedges and less leading wedge relief (probably works better on japanese golf courses...no idea), but it results in a ball that rolls a bit more.. I wanted a japanese wedge that will allow me to get under the ball very quickly...from the fairway, the rough, anywhere.... the zodia was great from the rough or full shots, but for open faced lob shots that were 5-10 yards and needed to stop within 4-6 feet of landing.... it was found wanting.. The Yururi 61* wedge is a very classy looking wedge (i am not putting pics up as there enough up already), but the black look is princely... The 61* has 5* bounce which is relatively lower (that attracted me to the wedge and the 2* of higher loft), but the kicker is that it has much much better leading edge grind that allows the club to glide under the ball... the leading edge grind of the zodia 59* (my primary lob wedge till now) tends to bounce a bit when played open-faced.... My specs were 1150 stiff , D-5 SW and 35" length. Ultimately, results count..I rate a lob wedge by how many balls end up in the one - putt range (which is generally anything within 5-6 feet for me - generally have a 80-90% success on those putts). I had 10 ocassions to use the lob wedge in the round yesterday (I deliberately chipped with it when normally I would have used a 52*)... three of them were shots from 30-50 yards over trouble (bunkers etc..).. two of these shots were within the one-putt range... the rest of the shots were even closer - 2-3 feet away..... The reason... i could feel the ball climbing up the face of the wedge and when it landed on the green it bit almost immediately and rolled for 4-5 feet, no more...when I tried to zip it back a couple of times... it zipped back more than usual (means I have to allow more room for it next time).... It feels softer than the zodias...I am going to play the GFTs again next week to compare the feel with them... In the end... the wedge turned out everything that I had hoped it will be...I really love opening its face an hitting the high soft shots.....When I close it it flies longer, but still bites a lot and doesn't roll that much more.... The zodia 56 and 59* came out of the bag... in went a gfield 5 wood (to be replaced with the Epon 5 wood when its delivered) and the yururi 61*. Also, I ordered a 53* Yururi to go with the 61* I will post an update after I have played 10-15 rounds with it......
