So I was looking around the PGA superstore and they had some TourEdge "Tour Zone" wedges for only $20. Obviously a super great price for someone with a small budget (me). Problem is that I can't find out any info about these wedges, like bounce. The PGA superstore website doesn't even have them. Neither does TourEdge's website. Does anyone know where to find info about these?

I was looking at them because a couple of weeks ago I picked up a 54*-15 and a 58*-10 callaway vintage forged wedges but I usually play on courses with hard sand and tight lies. Therefore I think the bounce of these wedges may be a bit high. Oh and I think I will miss having a 60* like I used to and used to hit pretty well and have already gotten rid of.

What do you guys think. Stick with the callaways or look for something with less bounce and probably a 60* cause I think I will miss it?

Do you think the Tour Zone wedges would be any good?

I play courses with Hard sand, yet I choose a 54-12. The main course I play has some nasty rough around the greens, so the higher bounce will, imho be a benefit. I also have a 60-04 for those  tight lies. Get what you think suits you best,

Thanks. I think I will stick with the callaways after doing some research of my own. They are c-grind so I should be able to decrease the bounce when opening the face...correct?

Not finding any TE Tour Zone wedges in my searches.

Any chance these are Yonex EZone Tour wedges? (popular in Japan). These came out circa 2011.

I cannot find anything online about them either. If I stop by the PGA store today, I'll snap a pic just to show everyone for curiosity's sake.

Took a snapshot of the TourZone wedges I was talking about. Nowhere on the wedge does it say TourEdge but the sign for the price says TourEdge.Oh and there is no furrel on these wedges.

Found a reference to Tour Zone wedges, and a pix in this link to M&M; Golf Inc. It appears these wedges are a component head for clubmakers, and sell for about $8 a head.

The M&M; website heads, however, look a lot different than the ones in your picture.

    • Which was his second hole, yeah. I talked with Mav's coach/instructor last night, ha ha.
    • Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.
    • Wordle 1,727 2/6* ⬛🟦⬛🟧⬛ 🟧🟧🟧🟧🟧
    • My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.
    • I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
