Posted July 12, 201311 yr Tabuchi-san's custom wedges are now available through TSG. We had them make a satin 56 and a raw black 60* which they sent to my house this week. We removed all the unecessary stampings and reduced the offset. The grind is already very versatile so we left it at as. Options include, grind, offset, finish, stampings. As always I'll work with you on your custom needs so like the muscle back and driving iron just send me an email! Here is the original: And the ones we had custom made:
July 12, 201311 yr Much much better than the original! Dammit, just got me 3 crazy wedges om the way in or I'd be tempted try these. Very nice lean look, the polar opposite of my DWDs lol.
July 12, 201311 yr Why can't they see how much nicer and cleaner their irons and wedges wold look like without all those stamping..... !! Beautiful wedges..... any review on how the spin??
July 12, 201311 yr After owning the Bold wedge, I'm afraid nothing could be compare to the bold. How are these wedges match up against the Bold in terms of spin and versatility!?
July 12, 201311 yr Author 50 to 60* in loft. I still have to play them to see how they compare to the bold but the attraction of these wedges is the customization to each golfer's specs.
July 12, 201311 yr I believe these have a RAW finish face with bead blast just like the blades Tario posted. That means the entire head is plated except for the face so when it does wear you will only see rust on the face. Some say raw feels better at impact and with rust spin increases but thats a matter of opinion of course it just now you can have the best of both worlds with Tabuchi. Durability with raw feel. I also think these have the copper underlay. T can you confirm this please.

How much do these run per head and what are the loft bounce options please. Any straight shots of the hosel from the back so we can assess offset? What's the offset story on these?
July 13, 201311 yr Love the grind on these. Reminds me very much of my much beloved Royal Collection DB forged 56. Might just have to pick one of these up in a 54. These are forged, yes?
August 16, 201311 yr The raw face on the plated head is awesome. The draw back is that the lines that separate the plating from the raw face are not as clean as if it didn't have the raw face. A few days into the wedges and i'm starting to see the face wear which helps me get over that un even line. The same thing can be done on the irons but the same issue applies where the line & bead blast isn't perfectly straight if that bothers you go with the fully plated head.
August 16, 201311 yr Look nice especially with a choice of custom stamp, definitely worth a try. Edited August 16, 201311 yr by tokidoki1986
