Partnering with well-known master craftsman, David Edel of Edel Golf, the duo will launch Faldo by Edel ; the ultimate customized clubs to include putters, irons, wedges and limited edition products created with individual golfers on all levels in mind.

“Faldo by Edel, is the realization of a golf dream for me,” says Faldo who is known as one of golf’s truest perfectionists. “I’ve long been an advocate of customizing equipment for look, feel and individuality. David is a precision engineer and an artist and he and his team make true one- of-a-kind equipment with craftsmanship and technical know-how applied to each club.”

“Knowing how fastidious he was as a player about equipment and performance, I was not shocked that Nick understood our vision,” said David Edel, Chairman of Edel Golf. “This is a man with huge vision, knowledge of the game, artistic prowess and insight. Together we will design practical and functional products and concepts to help golfers of all abilities to maximize their game.”

Woooooow, really? That's wild. As a big Edel fan (note my sig), I'm taken aback by this, but... that's pretty cool. Go Faldo.

Faldo changes companies only slightly less often than his boxers.

I wish Edel good luck, but am wary of any pairing with Faldo.

Bleh. Hope I can still get Edel wedges without "Faldo" stamped on them.

Faldo is known "as one of golfs true perfectionists". Yet he can't take the time to learn the ball flight laws?

I hope this doesn't mean Edel will be selling the Faldo clubs with Faldo's face stamped on them like the old Hogan irons?

Let's not turn this into that guys.

Good for Edel. They make a great product and I applaud anything that has the chance to give them a bigger pin on the map.

I must have missed something. If Faldo has something to tell me about my swing, I can assure you I would listen.

In his book, Faldo does consistently reinforce the need for custom equipment so from that perspective, this partnership makes.

I though these post should be reversed in order to save Eric the trouble of re-posting. Indeed, lets not turn this into that ....there is plenty of that already.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Wow, what an awesome idea. Would absolutely love to go that route if I had the $$$.

Choose between the following
  • Top Line - Narrow or Standard
  • Toe Shape - Round, Standard, or Square
  • Hosel Offset - Minimal, Standard, or Pronounced
  • Leading Edge - Straight, Standard or Round
    Each set machined and hand ground to your exact specifications.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

Thanks, couldn't find any information for left handed golfers guess they aren't there yet.  I like the shape and design of the irons but not sure about the colored dots.

The dots were the first thing I saw and didn't care for them at all. Then when I saw the level of customization, the dots didn't bother me anymore! Still think they'd look classier with the winged Edel logo on the back like the Black Cavity Backs.

I think the Faldo by Edel Line is a way for Edel to get "off the rack" goods that are semi-customized to the public. It will give him access to Sir Nick's contacts and a volume level in sales he has not before attained. Not a huge volume, but no doubt larger than previously recorded.

At first it reminded me of Zevo golf with the dots

Anyway, good for Edel, hope this helps them continue to grow.  Look forward to seeing the new stuff next week.

I am very interested to see how the irons perform. I think they are a nice looking iron. Good for Edel Golf.

$[quote name="notsohard" url="/t/64247/edel-golf-to-partner-with-nick-faldo-for-faldo-by-edel#post_800103"]so we are talking $650 an iron without Faldos name on them.....i wonder what special price with his name engraved....you are guaranteed to be a scratch golfer if you buy them ....but i do like them ;-) [/quote] $650 per individual iron??? Is that a typo? Has to be a typo.

    • Day 119: 4/24/24 Chipping and pitching followed by putting through 50 mm gates.
    • @boogielicious and I are definitely in for the Stay & Play and will need the extra night's stay on Friday. I don't know what the plans are for our group on Friday but even if we don't make it for dinner with the rest of the Friday arrivals, I'll be more than happy to meet up somewhere for a beer or something.
    • Taking your dispersion and distance in consideration I analyzed the 4 posible ways to play the hole, or at least the ones that were listed here. I took the brown grass on the left as fescue were you need to punch out sideways to the fairway and rigth of the car path to be fescue too.  Driver "going for the green"  You have to aim more rigth, to the bunker in order to center your shotzone in between the fescue.  Wood of 240 over the bunkers I already like this one more for you. More room to land between the fescue. Balls in the fescue 11% down from 30% with driver. Improve of score from 4.55 to 4.40. 4 iron 210 yards besides the bunkers.    Also a wide area and your shot zone is better than previous ones. This makes almost the fescue dissapear. You really need to hit a bad one (sometimes shit happens). Because of that and only having 120 yards in this is the best choice so far. Down to 4.32 from 4.40. Finally the 6 Iron 180 yards to avoid all trouble.    Wide area an narrow dispersion for almost been in the fairway all the time. Similar than the previous one but 25 yards farther for the hole to avoid been in the bunkers. Average remains the same, 4.33 to 4.32.  Conclusion is easy. Either your 4iron or 6 iron of the tee are equaly good for you. Glad that you made par!
    • Wish I could have spent 5 minutes in the middle of the morning round to hit some balls at the range. Just did much more of right side through with keeping the shoulders feeling level (not dipping), and I was flushing them. Lol. Maybe too much focus on hands stuff while playing.
    • Last year I made an excel that can easily measure with my own SG data the average score for each club of the tee. Even the difference in score if you aim more left or right with the same club. I like it because it can be tweaked to account for different kind of rough, trees, hazards, greens etc.     As an example, On Par 5's that you have fescue on both sides were you can count them as a water hazard (penalty or punch out sideways), unless 3 wood or hybrid lands in a wider area between the fescue you should always hit driver. With a shorter club you are going to hit a couple less balls in the fescue than driver but you are not going to offset the fact that 100% of the shots are going to be played 30 or more yards longer. Here is a 560 par 5. Driver distance 280 yards total, 3 wood 250, hybrid 220. Distance between fescue is 30 yards (pretty tight). Dispersion for Driver is 62 yards. 56 for 3 wood and 49 for hybrid. Aiming of course at the middle of the fairway (20 yards wide) with driver you are going to hit 34% of balls on the fescue (17% left/17% right). 48% to the fairway and the rest to the rough.  The average score is going to be around 5.14. Looking at the result with 3 wood and hybrid you are going to hit less balls in the fescue but because of having longer 2nd shots you are going to score slightly worst. 5.17 and 5.25 respectively.    Things changes when the fescue is taller and you are probably going to loose the ball so changing the penalty of hitting there playing a 3 wood or hybrid gives a better score in the hole.  Off course 30 yards between penalty hazards is way to small. You normally have 60 or more, in that cases the score is going to be more close to 5 and been the Driver the weapon of choice.  The point is to see that no matter how tight the hole is, depending on the hole sometimes Driver is the play and sometimes 6 irons is the play. Is easy to see that on easy holes, but holes like this:  you need to crunch the numbers to find the best strategy.
