I'm looking at replacing my old Cleveland Tour Action 900's (They're really beat up). I've heard good things about the Cleveland CG10's and the Titleist Vokey 200 and Spin Milled models. Can anyone recommend any of three?

I'm looking for a 52, a 56, and a 60 degree with medium to high bounce. Thanks for the help.

The new TM RAC BLACK TP wedges have great feel to them. Nice looking, and feel pretty good when you hit with them. Try it out.

I have a Cleveland CG10 and I would reccomend it at least for a lob wedge. Maybe its just me but when I really push the limits on mine distance wise I don't think that it is in it's best state but around the greens some times it can be heavenly. It just seems to have the perfect amount of spin put on a chip shot and it also has the soft feel that is almost rewarding when you hit a good shot. And while I will admit that it did take me a few weeks to get used to how it played and even get it to a normal level, nowadays almost anything that has green to work with and is under thirty yards is within four or five feet for me. So I'd definitely reccomend it for around the greens.

Vokey Vokey Vokey!

That's all I have to say.

Since I got my 52 degree and 56 degree Vokey wedges, my handicap has decreased a handful probably. The wedges have definitely made a huge difference for me.

I've had them for a year, and I love them!

I have hit my very best shots with a Vokey SM 256.14 wedge. While it has a relatively high bounce, I use it off the fairway as well as out of the rough. When I wish to chip from the fringe to a tight hole placement, I do so with the confidence that I can stop the ball, easily avoiding that nauseous unintentional long roll past the hole. I find it very effective from a wet or moist fairway situation. I hope this helps.

I personally use a cleveland CG10 it's got probably the greatest feel of any wedge, if you hit it right, and I can manage to control spin more so with this club than with other clubs, I would recommend this club especially if you play a lot and will get your moneys worth out of it, although you can go for nearly any wedge over $100 and it'd be tough to go wrong

      the rules have changed, but this would fall under 11.2 in the current rules.  General Penalty to any player who deliberately deflects a ball in motion, and you must replay the putt.

      Day 250 4-29 Getting chest through with speed on downswing and wrist arch. Also worked on some moving the pelvis slightly away in the backswing. Feel like im going too fast and long, looks like it on the recordings too.

      Interesting that it's no penalty, but then again, I can't imagine someone would purposefully put their foot out there in this situation or one like it.  And then there was the time someone purposefully deflected his own ball during a major, but that's very different too. The only time I can recall a ball I hit hitting another player or their equipment was ages ago -- over a decade and a half ago.  I had a 3' putt for an 89 and someone (a random pairing, not someone I knew) decided it was a good time for goaltending practice.  That wouldn't fall under this rule, though (and it wasn't in a tournament anyway). Thanks for continuing to share these, Dave!  I always find these interesting.

      Day 51 (29 Apr 26) - Worked with a few of the golf team kids plus my grandson (he’s too young for the team as it’s middle-high school age and he’ll be 10 Sat).  He put on a small hitting clinic (hitting off the same tees as the rest of the boys) - one of the older kids called him a “coach”.  Worked in a few shots for myself - had the light bag: driver, 7w, 4 - 6 - 8 - Pw - Sw (DCI 962’s except the Sw a 981) and Zebra putter….got in some great tee shots, a couple of recovery and an awesome up and down for bogie: 55 yds out, hitting 4th shot due to 2nd getting tangled in limbs - see the window I need to hit for a tight spinner with the Sw - nail it to a postage letter distance from the cup for a tap in bogie….my kind of practice.

      Day 21, April 29.  Before going to work this morning, I worked in my indoor practice room for 20 minutes.   This was entirely 6-iron shots with the usual step.  Video yesterday showed me that I'm still straightening my trail leg too much (leading to the backswing length issue I've been working to fix), so I focused on not doing that in my rehearsal swings.
