RIduffer Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 that would probably take alot of tape on a wedge like bold as it seems to be nearly as heavy as miura and miura makes heavy wedges. That was a purely facetious comment. I am assuming he is talking less than 6g of tape to achieve a few SWs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ant Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 played quick nine with it and i think i only hit two shots with it. one full pitch shot and one shot which was kinda in between pitch/chip from close range to clear the wall of elevated sloping away green and feed to the pin down the slope. full shot wasnt perfect but close enough, the other one almost went in, stopped pin level for tap in. not too bad considering i had no practice time with this wedge apart from hitting small flops and chips with it in the garden. its definitely a bit of a lower traj and has some bite on it, nothing shocking tho. what i hated is cleaning the grooves on this thing is a bitch. the course was pretty dry (been very hot lately) but ground has alot of clay in it which never really gets too dry and sort of turns into a thick hard paste kinda substance. grooves and milling on this thing just a perfect trap for it and even with wet towel in hand it was a challenge to get out quickly.

supo Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) what are we into now...... 6-7 months with these. got the lofts from 50-60. all manner of shafts. all of which seem to be going perfectly. played form late winter to mid summer with them and they are just getting better and better. ive got so many wedges from differnt makers , and these just seem to be performing better. the big deep bounce thin sole and larger face seem to be a great mix for me. they dont seem to be the spinniest wedges ive got. nor are they anywhere near the most versatile but after i just point shoot and pop them up i have no issues the ball just seems to pop and drop, the ydont back up yards, they just seem to be an accurate easy to play wedge im loving them the rogue 52 and 50 ive been struggling with early days is now a non event, and going to a set of irons wher the PW is 46* the 50* bold is a perfect match.... 50- 56 60 oh yes indeed. i might be the only one that likes these...., Edited August 20, 2013 by supo67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiromikey Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 i agree, these are deadly accurate. definitely not the spiniest or the best feeling wedges, but they are very easy to score with. no matter what i do the ball is never more than a foot away from it's pitch mark, and that's very important for scoring to me. it allows me to go after pins no matter where they are. besides premature wear of the laser milling, my only other complaint is that i didn't get along with the stock shaft at all...

JayDM Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Bold 50* would be a perfect match for the kamui kp 101's. That'd be one hell of a setup for some links play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 yep but iuse a micro thin 60* lob there not the 60* bold. the bounce is too high for sydney. , its a bit clunky for kaikuya grass compared to the yururi raws. the prgr and these went very well on sudnday. although, the fourteens were brillinant match a cpl of weeks back, same kinda shape, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayDM Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 Gold's custom wedges, Maru's and Bold's have been sharing top slots lately.... The edge has went to the GF wedges the past week though as I've needed the extra spin. Let's see how that set of Fourteen's shakes things up.
