$300 wedge...
Never heard of the brand but for the price I am sure its some kind of Japanese forging. Anyway for that price it should stop every ball no farther than 6" from the pin every time....LOL

The designer of those hangs out at wrx... Very pretty wedges, I would love some, but don't have that kind of change for a wedge.

Anyway, you can 'make your own' with a grinder. I'll see if I can find my thread on that.

Not even. It's $11.50. Insurance will cost you $6 more.

Yeah, I think his claim to fame was that he got some wedges in Tadd Fujikawa's bag for a while.

heard of them and hit them.. nice and the mixed logo's are cool also.. you can get personal grinds etc.. like getting taylored for a suit. only way would be a custom fit to spend that much. not off the rack so to speak.

That's what you are, but what am I?

EDIT:

What's a CONUS butthole anyway?

And why would you want anything, much less a golf club, shipped to your butthole?

Its a fad. Find a little China man, put some Chinese characters on the wedge, claim the forgings are from long lost caves, claim the forger is old Samurai who once took one the mighty Mongs with just a stick, claim the steel is forged from a Samurai sword and look! You can chrage 300 whatever for it.

Its steel. It has the same grind that every other wedge has. It has grooves. It will no more no less than any other well made wedge.

yes but you are all missing the importance of this opportunity. We are able to purchase a wedge for three times the money so that when it fails it should fly three times as far into the lake... Think of the possibilities...

$300 for a wedge, $300 for a putter, $500 for a driver, & who says you can't buy a game?
