Spotted: Ping Glide 2.0 Wedges

Published

on

GolfWRX spotted new Ping wedges on the range at the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open. The wedges are marked Glide 2.0, indicating that the wedges will replace the company’s current Glide wedges that were released in January 2015.

The wedges photographed belonged to Ping Staffers David Lingmerth, Mackenzie Hughes (MH), Sebastian Munoz (JSM), Brian Campbell and others. The photos indicate that the wedges will be available in at least the four available Glide grinds: Standard Sole (SS), Wide Sole (WS), Thin Sole (TS), Eye Sole (ES).

Ping’s current line of Glide wedges are cast from 431 stainless steel and use the company loft-optimized grooves. Here’s 4 things you need to know about them.

    The original Glides are some of my favorite wedges of all time. Glad the 2.0 doesn’t stray to far from the original design.

Coolest thing for sale in the GolfWRX Classifieds (5/13/24): Full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs

Published

on

At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals that all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.

It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.

Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, there is a listing for a full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs.

From the seller: (@CaymanS): “During the year of recovery from leg surgery that never quite healed, I was bored.  One thing led to another, and I ended up gradually building/acquiring the individual pieces to complete a set of “Tiger Slam” clubs.  They are what Tiger played to win 4 consecutive majors, which nobody has ever done.  This is not an exact replica of course, but something close that fit me to play a few times per year and experience what Tiger did.  But my bad leg, 4 shoulder tears, and age prevents me from the ball-striking needed to enjoy these to their fullest.  They may not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially since the driver and fairway shafts are regular flex and most players good enough to play these will need to change them, but it’s not a perfect world.  I am not a historian on this stuff, but my research indicates these are the same models Tiger used, with slightly different specs to fit me.

Full set $1,600, or…

…a donation for a Pro Kids fundraiser, or…

Driver: $70

Fairway: $250

Irons: $1,100

Wedges: $100

Putter: $350″
