Review
"This clubs has a great look to it and feel. It has a lot of head weight to it which I really liked. I couldn't resist buying this club because I loved they way it looked. I have played about 17 rounds with it this year and love it around the green. Before I continue, I have played with Cleveland Wedges for about 15 years and have had nothing but love for them. I only switched because of how much I liked the look of the Nike VR. That said I am now back to my Cleveland DSG 54 degree wedge. Why, one reason, Distance. I was fitted for all my clubs and I have no yardage gaps. I hit my 60 degree 85 yards and my 54 degee 120 with a normal relaxed swing. I noticed I wasn't getting as much distance with the Nike wedge after 2 rounds and a lot of driving range time. Went to my local pro shop, they checked the loft, it was off 2 degree's closer to 56 so they bent it to a 54. gained about 5 yards but that only brought me to 105 yards. Basically, the high spin grooves for me reduce distance and it doesn't work for me. I spin the ball very well as it is and it took 17 rounds for me to realize, why am I fighting this wedge when I never had a problem with my cleveland. Nike wedge is a good wedge, but I can't go to a 52 degree wedge so I can hit it 120 yards."
