I have been waiting for my turn to own these wedges for about 3 years now and finally I have them in hand.  Even though I won't be able to play with them until at least September being that I am in Afghanistan I don't care and I wanted them shipped over here so that I can see them in person and know that I finally have them.  Neil at Edel is the person who got me squared away and he even did some work on some other wedges that he didn't have to and I will post those on here later and talk about also.

Lefties we are no longer left out when it comes to Edel wedges! (Digger Grind on all wedges) and they are just flat out gorgeous:

I of course had to add my lil touches so my 51* became a FIDDY 1 with my initials on it

My wife's name on the FIDDY 5

how do those work exactly?

what I mean is, do you throw them at the ball?  They don't appear to have any shafts...

In my bag:

some golf clubs

a few golf balls

a bag of tee's some already broken the rest soon to be

a snickers wrapper (if you have seen me play, you would know you are not going anywhere for a while)

and an empty bottle of water

Well they have this glue call epoxy that I will use to stick them onto the shafts that I've already been fitted for that are with me here in Afghanistan.

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
