I am looking for some great wedges, but the price of any good wedge is almost as much as a driver! Of course the short game is the one you should invest in. I am looking for some used EDEL wedges. I live about a hundred miles from any given golf course, so needless to say I have a separate set of clubs for practice (rocky soil). I rarely get to the range (gas is too dang much!) but I need some decent wedges since I am wearing out my practice wedge on the extremely rocky soil of my homemade golf course.

 

If you know of anyone selling their used EDEL wedges let me know!!!! I can get them fitted myself so that isn't a concern. Thanks!

$130-140 or so versus $300 to $500? A set of three Edel Wedges runs $495 or so via Golf Evolution, including the fitting and the usual customization, etc. So maybe you meant a set?

How are you going to fit the grind? 

 

Change your swing?

I'd imagine you'd be hard-pressed to even find used Edel wedges. And if you did, they'd be stamped with someone else's name and have an ill-fitting grind and bounce value for you.

I'm not specific to EDEL, i was just refencing EDEL since this an EDEL thread. Fitting is done from my understanding by measuring the length of your arms to the ground. I'm not sure what grind or bounce I want. So EDEL is probably be the last brand I want if I have to custom order. I would rather take the guess work out and buy some clevelands. I would not know what to buy when buying customs. I can beat most people with wal-mart wedges, I'm just trying to take my game to the next level without teachers or coaches. These EDELs look cool, I don't care about putting a name custom, so for the right price if they are the right clubs for me I won't really care who's name is on them if I dont have to empty my bank account to buy them haha.

Edel fittings are much more comprehensive than that.  It's not just length and lie, its also which grind you need and the amount of bounce you need based on your swing.  And I don't think that you even are able to buy them without the fitting, so if its not about cost, they should be the FIRST brand you want if you want to custom order.  Further, if you just "buy some clevelands" you aren't taking the guesswork out.

 

But, yes, they are pricey, which is part of the reason I don't own any. :)

Yeah I know what you guys mean, maybe someday I will get some new custom wedges. I don't really know where I would get fitted for them, just any pro shop? 

 

Thanks for the feedback!

After reading the full thread, I'll definitely give Edel a serious look as soon as a fitter is within 100 miles of Jacksonville, FL.
