Looking for help on what brand of wedge to get, and what model. With the good wedges out this year i really want to get some before they sell out since they stop making them, and since i just got some money for christmas this is the perfect time. Im a good player so i dont care about forgiveness or easy to hit or any of that junk i just want the best wedge out there, period. The only wedges i really looked at so far are the cg 14's and cg 15's from cleveland. but idk what other brands have out there such as callaway or ping.  can anyone help me?

Oh, and merry christmas!

I really like the Callaway X-Forged. But from what I have heard and read the Cleveland zip wedges are amazing. Sorry haven't used any of those. Good luck.

I have experience with cleveland cg 12, 14, 15's as well as vokey sm, and the callaway xforge wedges. the callaway in my opinion has the most spin and comes with a c-grind for versatility. while the clevelands and vokey's offer c-grinds as well, i also prefer the callaway for its appearance. good luck!

Wow tim31x you seem to like wedges. If you don't mind me asking over what time frame did you try all of these wedges and what lofts and for how long? Favorite loft(s)

There is no wedge that's the best or else people wouldn't be gaming all sorts of different wedges. If you have been playing golf for any amount of time, you'd realize that equipment is a very personal thing and what works for someone won't work for you.

For what it's worth I use the Callaway JAWS wedge and really like it.  I don't know exactly what you are looking for in a wedge, but as I play them I will recommend them.

If you're planning on playing at a competitive level you need to game clubs with compliant grooves.

For your own sake, don't say things like this.  You will only get beat up in here or any other forum.

Went with a 48 degree Volkey and my question is why is the Volkey noticeably longer than the same lofted Callaway X-Forged wedge and a little bit longer than the Cleveland CG15? Is this a company design?

Look at the Miura wedges. I got three last week and they are amazing. Never felt anything like them. Got mine from Chip Usher at Usher Golf in Savannah,Ga. I ordered them on Friday and he shipped them to me overnight delivery on Monday. He has most all of them in stock it seems.

I have been a Vokey man myself, but last year I added a 60* Scratch wedge to my bag and I'll be replacing my 52 and 56 Vokeys with some Scratch 8620's this year, most likely.

Callaway X-Forged wedges are on clearance at several places for $70. I have an X-Forged 56.14 which works quite well; it's on the shelf right now while I try a 50-54-58 mix.

X-Forged is great if you want a lot of bounce.

Focus, connect and follow through!
