    I agree with your comments needing a 50-54-58 set to better suit the stronger lofted iron sets.

    When a golf club company has their product made overseas, it's far more likely you are going to see copies. The specs are not secret and are easily duplicated. When you can get three of these wedges for the price of one vokey, you kind of wonder if it's worth handing that much profit to Titleist.

    Gabe I gamed the Gen 1s until 2-months ago. I bought the Gen 1 after your review and as soon as they were available in the UK. I was not sure if I needed a set of wedges and affordability to performance ratio the Gen 1s were a no brainier. I found I used the 56 and SW most and decided to settle on 2 wedges. I must say I have nothing but good things to say about the Gen 1. I now have a Vokey 52 and 58 which suit my game. I was also able to get fitted. But I would highly recommend KS products. It would good to see the data for all three sets in your bag today.

    Nice!! I have a set and have 2 rounds in. I’m not as skilled with a 60* wedge. These are part of my 2nd bag. I set gap wedge @ 49* and play a 54* and 58* Cleveland Rtx in my other bag. However..I have fell in love with the K Sig 56*. I was pulling it out for for anything 60 yards in. This weekend. I may shelf the 60* but I plan on getting some more practice with it first. Need more confidence with the 60* Thanks Gabe for the review. Better yet Costco please sell individual irons 50-8*, 54-10*, 56-10*and 60! @ 60$ a wedge that would be awesome

    I snatched a set about three weeks ago. I like them but... Yep, there is always a butt. I hit a 50/54/60 normally and I had to keep the SM8 50 degree because the difference in distance was too great from PW to 52 (TM P790s) and I'm considering going back to the 54 for a similar issue although I like the way the wedges spin up and do well around the greens. I don't think I can get the 56 bent to 54 which would be ideal since the SM8 is pretty much worn down. Still, the 60 is money and the 56 is good as well.

    • @LetsPlayThru
      @LetsPlayThru  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’ve always thought a 50 - 55 - 60 would be a good setup too. Have you thought of bending the 56 one degree?

      @@LetsPlayThru yeah. I have. I’d have to chat with a buddy that does that and I’m sure I’ll get the, ‘you want to bend a Costco Wedge?’ Along with that look people give when you buy stuff like this. Let’s face it, snobbery is big in the golf community. For the vast majority the Costco wedges are just fine but some folks will still look at you like you aren’t serious about golf. That attitude makes the game harder, more expensive, and less fun.

    I started playing 2 years ago with the callaway edge set from costco and I've really been considering new wedges for a while now- something about the Edge wedges just doesn't work well for me, tend to hook everything left that requires 3/4+ of a swing, and the sand wedge feels *really* bad for me around the greens compared to some rented clubs I've used in the past.
