Im interested in buying the Mizuno mp r or the NIKE victory red wedges. As of now I play a Titleist and Callaway wedges. They seem to be decent wedges but im looking to get a set of 52,56, and 60 and these two fit my eye. Any information about these would be helpfull.

Im open to other suggestions but not Titleist or Cleveland.

I've never heard of anyone who is considering new wedges rule-out Cleveland & Titleist.... I don't have much help for you, but good luck! If I had to pick I'd go Mizuno. They always make good looking golf clubs, and I've never seen the Nikes before.

ive tried a ton of forged wedges the VR is my favorite. you get great spin and control. the only downside is it will no longer conform to usga but unless your playin in the us open who cares

I have a mp r series 60* wedge and I love it. I am planing on getting a 56 and a 52 and taking out my hybrid.. i feel like the mizuno has a really good feel to them. I am a mizuno fan, but titleist vokey's are hard to compete with..

If the MP-R is anything like the MP-T's then get them! I have them as my backup set until my Vokey's die out. I like the feel of the club and they spin just as much the Vokey's.

IMO opinion u can't get better wedges than titleist or cleveland but i've heard really good reviews about both wedges but i would go for the mizunos. you can check out a review on the sand trap about the mpt wedges and from what i read on there they are very good. keep in mind that vokeys are very good wedges and you might not know what you are missing out.

I have the taylormade TP satins for 52 and 56 and the TP Z Smoke for 60 and i love my 60 i can get back spin with it and i am a 27 hcap
