Thats funny, I thought it had to do with the wedge itself, like grind or something, but didnt see anything.

I tested it. I wasn't that sold on it... especially considering there are so many great wedges out there.

The head shape was a tad too round for me and I actually didn't like the grind that much.

Offset was miniml but the head was a tad on the bigger side.

Feel not bad at all, spin average.

What don't work for others might work for some as wedges are just so personal. Can't wait to see what you think of em, especially comparing to the Miura C and Y grind?

Yes don't worry! Remember I try every single wedge so I can be very picky... also my tastes and preferences are certainly different from yours. I found the grind to flat and as I said the head a bit too round.

I looking for something forgiving, dont like the head to small, play in really wet and dry conditions. I am a digger. Any recommendations.?

If you play it like PW and tend to hit fat, the wider flatter sole may work for you on this Kamui however a bit more bounce and a tad rounder might work better if you dig.

If you are a digger, more bounce and some of the wide sole model wedges will work better as they tend to resist digging more than thinner sole wedges.

Also the leading edge is something you should look at ie something with a bit more relief and rounded. The Romaro Ray SX sole is wider as is the Yururi Seida Rupas... the TM ATV Forged is only 8 bounce across all its models but the sole is wide and I found it does not dig easily plus it was darn forgiving and its size very confidence inspiring:

check out the width of the sole. the rounder leading edge and the confidence inspiring top line in my review:

i have the C grind 59 and Y grind 51s. I played them this past Saturday and Sunday on Macau Golf CC. My iron set is really old, like Honma LB-727 so it was a 10 piece full set that's why I bot the Miuras. They are amazing. Hands down. I have Epon wedges too but haven't tried yet but the Miuras will be really hard to beat.

Fits my needs for full attack shots. Very nice and easy to use..

Head is nice and heavy those tungsten weights are super kick aZZ looking.

Nice looking grind too. The finish and sole is wearing already after a round but that's ok

Looks great. I like it nearly as much as your watch strap, now that's cool ;)

That wedge looks great! Slightly larger and definitely forgiving wedges. I hope you are getting some good results. I'd assume they produce a strong, piercing trajectory. I actually like that slightly wearing look to it.
