Ping tour W, I absolutely love them, the Tour S models will be out late summer along with the new forged Anser irons

Edit, I'm like a surgeon with my 60 at 50 yards and in

I play the Tour W wedges (54/60) I love them, I love the way the ball feels off them.
I have not hit a Vokey (which would be the only other I would consider) and probably won't as these work just fine me

Replaced my cally x-tour 54º with a Mizuno MP-T 51º and now with a ping w tour 52º. So far so good. I like how easily it travels through thick rough on the takeaway.

Please don´t swing while I´m talking !!

really i could be wrong. Im just going by holding a vokey. I think its cause they are both not forged and have a siimilar design and weight.

i tried the ping w wedges at a recent demo day and they felt pretty harsh too me. i found it hard to change the trajectory of my shots and when i tried a few 40 yard shots with my prov1x i could barely get the ball to check up...it just wanted to hop once and roll out a couple of feet. my vokeys actually hop once and spin back one foot or so

      That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      By boogielicious · Posted

      The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
