Nope. Just aesthetics. You can get just about any loft/bounce combination on any of the wedges in any finish.

They are also available in raw.

I don't have a pic of mine in particular but there are plenty of pics around the 'net. But I would recommend checking them out in person. There is somthing lost with pictures that you get seeing them in person.

I went with the Oil Can finish, I love the look, but of those two, i'd go with the black nickel for two reasons. I like it better, Im not a fan of chrome, even on my Harley. And You'll never get a glare off it when your facing into the sun at address.

In the Ogio Kingpin bag:

Titleist 913 D2 9.5* w/ UST Mamiya ATTAS 3 80 w/ Harrison Shotmaker & Billy Bobs afternarket Hosel Adaptor (get this if you don't have it for your 913)
Wilson Staff Ci-11 4-GW (4I is out of the bag for a hybrid, PW and up were replaced by Edel Wedges)
TaylorMade RBZ 5 & 3 Fairway Woods

Cobra Baffler T-Rail 3 & 4 Hybrids

Edel Forged 48, 52, 56, 60, and 64* wedges (different wedges for different courses)

I like the chrome. Its more of a comfort issue with me. For some reason its easier for me to hit. Sounds funny but its the truth. Prolly a mental thing.

I personally prefer chrome. Chrome is a protective finish, so that clubs wont rust as easily and the grooves wont wear down as quickly.
I dont have any problems with glare, even while hitting open-faced shots. If the price were the same for either, Id go with chrome every time.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

      Wordle 1,645 3/6* ⬛🟦⬛⬛🟦 🟦⬛⬛🟦⬛ 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧 There is a group I know that posts their results on Facebook whenever they solve in 1 or 2 guesses. I asked one how they were so successful and evidently there is one type that provides word clues. Never seen it, but that could enhance your chances!

      Day 445 - 2025-12-19 Hit some balls at AMGC today before getting on a flight and driving back to home through some not-so-awesome weather. The backswing is starting to feel pretty good. I have to clean up the knees a little.

      Does Anyone Else Use a Staff Bag?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      I unknowingly ordered what would sort of be considered a staff bag. It is the 14 divider version of the Titleist staff bag and was stated on the website to be a staff bag "light" (Titleist Tour Premium Cart Stadry), but it is pretty big. Love it though.

      Day 39 (19 Dec 25) - weekly men’s group shootout today - we had as a “fifth” in our foursome the course teaching pro.  With the solid winds playing havoc, it was great having him to offer insight and counsel on what to take into to account. Mind you, he did not recommend specific club but rather to what consider and how to plan.  What a great day for course management education at the next level.
