Wilson PMP Wedges: What you need to know

Published

on

Wilson’s new PMP wedges (Precision Milled Performance) use the company’s full-volume HM grooves, as well as “Micro Spin Lines” between each groove to maximize spin on both partial and full wedge shots.

The PMP wedges ($99.99 each) have already been used on the PGA Tour by Troy Merritt, Ricky Barnes, and Brendan Steele, and we expect Kevin Streelman and Padraig Harrington to be gaming them in 2016 as well.

    The micro grooves are patterned in the same fashion as those on Wishon’s PCF Micro wedges, though they don’t appear to be as pronounced as the Wishon design. http://wishongolf.com/designs/wedges/pfc-micro-tour/
    First time I’ve seen an OEM put something out similar to the Wishons, which have been available for several years now, and produce more spin off half-shots than anything else I’ve come across.

    The club looks nice but I favor a forged wedge. Also the micro lines will be gone in one round in our sand based soil here in Florida. However I intend to try them and if the feel good they may replace my worn out Scratch wedges.

    They look pretty good. I wish they would have kept the dark PVD finish as well, but I’d use the blue ones anyways.

    Gave up on Wildon a few years ago after my golf bag was stolen from military housing in Hawaii. Contacted Wilson asking if they would help replace my irons ( at my cost). Was told sorry, can’t help. Mizuno and Peak Vision write me back thanking me for my service and replaced my wedges and sunglasses for Free! But I digress… Time has passed and I admit I like the looks of the new wedges… Will compare them to my current lineup ( cobra tour trusty).

      Are you kidding me? The company won’t replace your stolen golf clubs, and it’s somehow their fault? You should count yourself very lucky that you somehow got your wedges and glasses replaced. It’s not the manufacturer’s duty to replace stolen product.

        Oh I agree. I asked them to replace a model I could no longer find and I would pay for them. They just said can’t help you, it’s not our policy, not even a ” sorry we no longer carry these or we no longer have these is stock etc… Kudos to the other companies mentions for helping me.

        We need to stop breeding a society of complainers. its also possible that the company has changed the way they manufacture and to set up molds of such club is not economical. Yes Ping will do this but they also will charge a premium to manufacture one-offs. Thank you for serving but please don’t blame the manufacture for your miss fortune.

      Takes some balls (Duos) to post your comments about Wilson. So what they didn’t help. Had you said they didn’t replace a defected item it would have been different. Next time Wilson loses something they should call you looking for help on replacing it for free.

        I believe he said he asked Wilson to replace the irons, “at his cost”.

          Thanks Gary…I did say I would pay for the items stolen

            Story makes no sense. My 3 year old set of clubs (I know u didn’t specify) were stolen, so please dust off the old manufacturing equipment and make me a new set. What did you expect them to say?

              Jan 7, 2016 at 2:16 am

              I guess maybe I thought they would say what Mizuno did

Spotted: Nate Lashley’s Ping PLD “Wolverine” putter

Published

on

Ping PLD putters have been a very common site on profesional tours. Pros seem to gravitate toward the PLD line’s custom options and precision milling. We have seen the PLD line expanded over the years, but we haven’t seen too many, if any, large mallets.

This week we spotted a PLD putter in Nate Lashley’s bag that has a similar look to the old Ping Wolverine head shape. This putter is a large mallet with the famous “claws” on the outside and oval center that housed the alignment aid.

Nick’s putter has the PLD logo on the back but also looks like it might have an insert installed on the face. It is hard to tell but at the address picture, it looks like the face is a lighter material than the rest of the putters. The putter is center-shafted and should be face-balanced with a high MOI for stability and forgiveness on mishits. The sole is completely milled and has no markings of name or technologies that might be present in the head. A single white site line is on the top of the putter for alignment.

Nick’s putter is finished off with a chrome steel shaft and a Super Stroke Zenergy Flatso 2.0 grip in black and white.
