so the pw in my set is a 45 and the sw is a 55. i had a 58 wilson staff wedge from my old set and in order to fill the gap i ordered a 50 deg rtx588 wedge but got a 52 instead ... well that works i can just remove the 55 sand and have even gaps.

so i put the 52 into play yesterday and wow wow wow.. the club feels solid. even at my skill level and using a dt solo or an ad333 the ball was checking and taking a small skip and stopping on 3/4 and full shots. now i have never been able to make the ball check with my wedges but this 52 it just falls and stays there may it be from the first cut or the fairway.  . very impressed.. 2 thumbs up.

Glad to hear you found something you like. Mind linking the club you got? I am going to be considering a second wedge for my set (depending on which irons I get), and this one sounds like it's worth a look.

I tried several sets before I bought Taylormade rbz hp steel stiff irons 4-sw. The pw is 45 deg and sw is 55 deg. From the previous set I am using a Wilson staff 58 deg. A new Cleveland 588 rtx 52 deg. (Sw coming out of the bag) a Tm super tri stiff shaft r9 driver a Callaway big Bertha 3 wood and a Tm white smoke putter

Thanks for the link, Hammer. It's a nice-looking club. I think I like it in Black Pearl even more...definitely going to see if there's one at a shop in-town to get a feel for it.

No problem. Might have a look at other wedges just to be sure the 588 rxt is the one for you.

Of course, just saw that someone found what seems like a nice, versatile club (seeing as he likes it enough to dump his SW), so storing it in my brain as something to look for when I'm out and about.

I have the 54 degree and 58 degree cavity-back version. I can get a lot of spin when struck correctly. A guy I golf with on occasion has a set and also likes how well the 588 can spin a ball.

What I can't tell you is how it compares to another brand.

      Day 29 (9 Dec 25) - PW dink and rolls as well as low flighted chips.  Dink and rolls - set up with club head toe down/heel up to promote low flight, plenty of roll out.  Low flighted pitches - club flat on the ground to get ball up a Rick more and check more.   No more than 10yds total distance - focus on getting the ball to finish near (within 10’ dia circle) the target “pin”…

      Never play with him again, and make sure every time you see him (especially when he's with other people) bring it up as a joke. Everyone will laugh but him. If he wants to ruin his own reputation, let him.

      Anyone Shipped Their Golf Clubs?

      By Jasper Stratton · Posted

      Only ever used ShipSticks and never had a problem. It's really nice because you can ship to anywhere not just courses.  No matter what you use, I take the extra care of the clubs and wrap them in something before putting them in your bag and into the shipping box.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Jasper Stratton · Posted

      Practicing my putting after work. I put five balls on the carpet and a mug on the other side. Once I make 3 out of 5 I can stop. If I leave any short or they go to far and fall off the rug, I restart.  Focusing on speed and hitting my mark 3 inches in front of me. Trying to gain consistency and discipline in all aspects of my putting game.
