Ping I3 O-Size 56* Sand Wedge Golf Wedges - Reviews

On 2004-02-04, MN_mike rated this Ping I3 O-Size 56* Sand Wedge a 3...(2742)



Purchase: Age:28 Hndcp:14 Bought to compliment the rest of my I3 O-size irons at my local municipal's pro shop. Only another $65 as part of the order for the set.
Pros: Custom fit to match the specs of the rest of my O-size set (lie angle, shaft length and flex). The consistency is good for full shots from the fairway. Fairly heavy swingweight allows the club to do the work for you. Puts good spin on the ball with a full swing. Very aggressive bounce angle (16*) is good for soft sand and soft fairway conditions.
Cons: The weight cartridge in the back of the head inhibits being able to open the club face very much. No choice in bounce angle. High degree of bounce makes it difficult to chip off tight lies. I have noticed much better spin with my Cleveland 900 chrome 60* low bounce lob wedge that I purchased after I bought this set, especially with chips around the green.
Quality: Good quality. I've played it three seasons now and the grooves are still like new, clubhead finish is still good. No problems to report.

Review Summary: A very solid club. I will purchase a Cleveland 900 for my next sand wedge. It is nice to have a sand wedge that compliments the rest of my set, but would prefer more choice as to bounce, as well as a wedge that is more performance-oriented.
