Those look sweet! I miss the 588 series although the smaller heads of the CG series are a bit more pleasing to my sun-drenched eyes. *Spin em long*

Busy was my first thought as well. Not a fan of the gold and white paintfills. Then again I was never a fan of the white paintfill on the soles either. Why not all black the double C logo centred on the back of the flange with "forged" stamped onto the hosel.

Could have just gone with the Japan version then.

That's the first thing that popped into my head. I wonder if they still have that weird Cleveland leading edge.

Better. Centred logo and you gotta have "Tour Action" on there somewhere.  I even like the pins. Eye of the beholder and all that.

Your version would grow on me pretty quickly once I got to hit them.

Yeah, I also think the new ones are far too busy cosmetically. But as long as they didn't screw up the shape or grind, a re-release of maybe the best wedge ever made is a good thing in my opinion.

I like the appropriately-named CRAZY wedge at $750. Sold out, sorry!

Geez. I wouldn't pay anything over about $110 for a wedge. They just wear down way too fast.

If they toned down the graphics on the back (off-centre golden Vokeyesque CG logo is just wrong, and "Tour Action" and Reg. 588 are missing) I'd be all over this wedge, but probably I'll stick with my old 588s, Hogans, and Mizunos. Been looking for a replacement for my 17 year old Mizuno Pros - nothing yet.
