Right now I have a set of Cleveland CG14's (52, 56) and love them to death. I used to have a Cleveland 588 53*, Vokey 56* SM, and an old Vokey 60*. I traded those in and got the 2 Cleveland's.

I have trouble hitting my 56 in short, 60 yards or less, shots. So I need a 60. What would be the best wedges for me that wont cost me an arm and a leg.


I don't want a vokey.

Wedges: Tour-W 52*, 56* SM, 60* SM
Putter: Studio Select Newport 1.5 34"Ball: ProV1 or ProV1xLow Score:74

I've tried several in the past six months -- the clear winner is the latest edition: a Cleveland 588 DSG RTG. The DSG is dynamic sole grind which grinds the sole of the club to a smooth rounded edge. This club is a marvelous chipper (perfect weight and feel) in addition to being a lob wedge that is hard to skull.

I've also tried a Mizuno MP-T 60* (Black Nickel) and a Volkey SM. While I like both wedges, I prefer their sandwedge variants to the 60*.

My Bag:

Driver: Srixon ZR-W 9.5* Graffaloy Epic 68(R)

Hybrid(s): Cobra Baffler DWS 20*Irons: 6-PW Mizuno MP-52. 5i Mizuno MX-23Wedges: Cleveland CG12 DSG 56/10Putter: Rife 2-Bar Hybrid

Listen i have the best advice for you

The new Nickent ARC wedges are the biggest and baddest piece of technology to come into wedges ever. They have a feel cartridge that absorbs twisting.. The cartridge is set into the back of the club---the first to ever have this done.. Please get one of these --

"People think the size of the head is most important. Wrong. It's getting a quality shaft. test different shafts to see which goes the straightest. Also, more degrees of loft on the head is better than less. Eleven degrees is about right."

Are you a Nickent rep... "please get one"

seriously though... I've never tried Nickent wedges, though they do make a nice hybrid (3DX). But, it seems that if the OP already has and loves the CG14's then why not get another one of these. I myself prefer Cleveland wedges, with Callaway a close 2nd. As for Snake Eyes, they probably are nice, most of their clubs are, but they don't have enough variations in bounce and loft. Anyway, hit the clubs, get what FEELS and LOOKS best to YOU! I know for me the looks are important, as is the feel/swingweight. for cheap prices try rockbottomgolf or get a slightly older model... CG10 or CG11, etc.
My Clubs: Callaway FT-i Tour LCG 9.5° w/ Matrix Ozik Xcon 6 stiff; Sonartec GS Tour 14° w/ Graphite Design Red Ice 70 stiff; Adams Idea Pro 2h(18°) & 3h(20°) w/ Aldila VS Proto 80 stiff; Adams Idea Pro Forged 4-PW w/ TT Black Gold stiff; Cleveland CG12 DSG RTG 52°-10° & 58°-10°; Odyssey...

I love how all of you are into helping me pick out the best wedge.

I like how the Snake Eyes wedges look. I really don't want another CG14 those cost too much. I lloked at the Sonartec wedges and they look good but I dont know how they fell. Has anybody hit these?

Here you go...a time proven classic wedge that is on sale at most retailers. I played this wedge for 12 years and I highly recommend it to you.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
