Does Your Sand Wedge Do This ?

I played another round today at Lafayette Golf Club, once ranked #2 here in the great state of Kentucky, and I’d have really gotten a whipping by this monster, if not for my wedges saving me several times.

I have the 52, 56 and 60 degree models in my bag and would not trade them. The shafts are a big part of the feel factor and here’s some info I dug up about them.

Further establishing itself as the industry leader in short game innovation, Eidolon Golf announced the introduction of the exclusively marketed Rifle Graphite Spinner shaft, a proprietary shaft design which is now offered as an exclusive option for premium V-SOLE™ wedges.

With the addition of the new Rifle Graphite Spinner shaft as an upgrade option, Eidolon Golf has further separated its premium line of V-SOLE wedges from those offered by general golf club manufacturers. The Rifle Graphite Spinner is designed and manufactured by Royal Precision in conjunction with Eidolon Golf, and Eidolon Golf is the only golf equipment company to offer the premium Rifle Graphite Spinner shaft as standard equipment.

” The new Rifle Spinner Graphite shaft mirrors the performance characteristics of the Rifle steel shafts exactly,” says Terry Koehler, President of Eidolon Golf and former Ben Hogan Golf executive. ” The higher flex point and slightly softer overall flex ensures an optimum feel and shot-making sensitivity at the wide variety of clubhead speeds common to wedge play. We’re very proud to have worked with the engineers at Royal Precision to bring this new graphite shaft to our line of V-SOLE wedges. The combination of these premium products provides a level of short game performance that is truly unmatched. ”

The Rifle Graphite Spinner weighs 95 grams — 20 grams lighter than Rifle Spinner steel shafts — and Eidolon Golf will apply its proprietary tipping procedures to offer the Rifle Graphite Spinner in both Regular and Firm flexes, with the former recommended for players whose normal 9-iron distance is 120 yards or less.

Equipped with either steel or graphite shafts, Eidolon Golf’s premium wedges offer more spin and more control by combining precise CNC groove and face milling with its own patented V-SOLE™ technology. Unlike most mass-produced wedges, Eidolon painstakingly CNC-mills each wedge face and then CNC-mills individual grooves in every wedge to achieve nearly 100 percent of the groove specifications allowed by the U.S. Golf Association. In addition, Eidolon’s patented V-Sole design features a very aggressive bounce on the leading portion wedges - about one-quarter of an inch - of the sole. This pronounced bounce (18 degrees on the 52-degree lofted wedge, 30 degrees on the 56 wedge, and 25 degrees on the 60-degree wedge) ensures that the leading edge never digs into the turf. The primary rear portion of the sole features minimal bounce — three degrees on the 52 gap wedge, seven degrees on the 56 mid- wedge and six degrees on the 60 lob wedge, so they play exceptionally well from the fairway and tight lies.

Eidolon Golf designs and manufactures premium golf wedges about which the Golf Club Review reports as having “enormous stopping power.” Headquartered in Port O’Connor, Texas, with manufacturing facilities in Houston, Eidolon Golf produces the only wedges in golf that feature the patented V-Sole™ Technology.
