Edison Golf launches new Edison 2.0 wedges

Terry Koehler broke back into the equipment space with the Edison Forged wedge in 2020. The long-time equipment designer and industry veteran (Reid Lockhart, Eidolon, SCOR, Ben Hogan) sought to bring a more consistent, forgiving wedge to market that was engineered for the majority of golfers, not tour professionals.

Now, Koehler and Edison are launching Edison 2.0 wedges, drawing on the feedback of thousands of golfers on the original model and a multi-year study of recreational golfer performance.

“For over 40 years, I have been puzzled as to why golfers are forced to suffer from the inefficiencies of ‘tour design’ wedges,” says Terry Koehler, Chairman and Director of Innovation at Edison Golf. “Robotic testing consistently proves even the newest iterations of these traditional wedge designs are less forgiving than even a tour blade short iron. Our research reveals that less than 10 percent of golfers consider their wedge play a strength of their games…and the wedges they play are a big reason why.”

New five-times forged, Edison 2.0 wedges continue to position more mass higher in the clubhead. Owing to a multi-level back design, an additional 14-17 grams of weight have been positioned higher in the clubhead for improved smash factor across the face, particularly on shots struck higher in the face and toward the toe of the club. This is particularly helpful on full shots, Koehler says, as most amateurs wedge shots miss high and short.

Not surprisingly, Koehler has a few thoughts on the current trend among major OEMs of moving weight higher in a wedge.

“I’ve been pursuing dramatic changes in wedge design for over 30 years. While it’s flattering to see all the major brand wedges finally beginning to position a tiny bit more mass higher in their wedge clubheads, none are anywhere close to the Edison 2.0. In fact, none of today’s wedges are even to the point where my Reid Lockhart wedges were in the 1990s,” says Koehler. “A caliper measurement of the face thicknesses of any major brand wedge to my historic wedge designs proves that I have led this design concept for decades. The Edison 2.0 wedges are generations ahead of everyone else.”

Edison 2.0 wedges are also equipped with an improved version of the Koehler Sole, which Koehler originally patented over 30 years ago. Both high and low bounce areas are built into the wedge for maximum versatility and performance across a variety of swing paths.

Koehler doesn’t believe choosing a grind or bounce fitting is beneficial to the average golfer because “the texture of the turf, the array of possible lies your ball can find and every golfer’s divot pattern are all variable.”

Edison 2.0 wedges a new warm pearl chrome finish for a softer surface with reduced glare. The company also describes the finish as “slicker,” that is, better equipped to channel away moisture and offer greater resistance to the ball sliding up the club face.

Pricing, specs, and availability

As with the original Edison Forged, all Edison 2.0 wedges are backed by the company’s 30-day risk-free trial AKA “If for any reason it’s not the best wedge you’ve ever played, Edison Golf will buy it back.”

Wedges are available in odd-numbered lofts from 45 to 59 degrees, which can be bent to even-numbered lofts.

All clubs are custom built and a variety of premium shafts and grips are available.

$199.95 for steel shafts
$214.95 for graphite shafts

Wedges are available exclusively via the company’s website.

Putters that never made it: Check out some of the best tour builds that didn’t make the cut

Arguably, the best perk of being a professional golfer on the PGA Tour is the ability to request or even just be handed pretty much any club you could think of. It happens more often than you think, usually with putters around the practice green from one event to the next. Come Wednesday, the Tour bags lining the edge of the putting surface become resting places for fallen flatsticks that never made the cut.

So let’s take a look at some of the best we’ve seen out on Tour this year that never made it to the competition. (You may notice none of Hideki Matsuyama’s custom Scotty Cameron putters made this list. There are too many.)

Let’s start with this custom Damascus Milled Odyssey Rossie made for Ryo Hisatsune. Featuring a single line and the short-slant hossel, we’ve seen plenty of Number 7 and jailbird heads featuring the Damascus Milled insert, but this is the first and only one we’ve spotted in a Rossie. Hisatsune primarily putts with an Odyssey Black Series iX #9, but we have seen him recently with a TaylorMade TP Collection SOTO, so there could be potential that the Damascus Milled Rossie could end up in the bag.

Everyone wants to be Cameron Young right now. We’ve had Justin Thomas and Tom Hoge both game the Scotty Cameron 9.5R prototype. Well, for the PGA Championship, Brooks Koepka nearly joined that list after requesting the same style of putter, with the full-length alignment line. But the Scotty Cameron reps took the request a step further and made one specially for Koepka with a Teryllium insert, similar to one in his previous Newport 2 gamers. The reason why this one didn’t go into play, though? Because it was too heavy.

Harry Hall was the third-best putter on Tour last year, so when Bettinardi made him a custom proto, you know it was going to be good. The custom BB28 blade features VDF face milling, a custom-welded single-bend shaft, and the owner’s initials – HH – on the sole of the putter. Hall, who usually games an Odyssey O-Works #7 W, has dabbled with a TaylorMade Spider Tour X already this year. Maybe there’s a chance this Bettinardi might make his bag.

Honestly, this one doesn’t need a description. It’s Kieth Mitchell’s custom Scotty Cameron Napa. One Scotty Cameron face stamp, two Scotty Dogs, two Scotty Cameron 7-Point Crowns and one Circle T. That is all. Oh, except for the Cashmere Cameron headcover.

Finally, and just for fun, how about we pour one out for this TaylorMade Spider Tour X made for Scottie Scheffler in its new torched finish. It’s unlikely we’ll see a putter change anytime soon from the best golfer in the world. In fact, he hit just two putts with it on the Harbour Town practice before going back to his trusty gamer.

Which of Tiger’s major winning irons are your favorite? – GolfWRXers discuss

In our forums, our members have been discussing their favorite major winning irons used by Tiger Woods. WRXer ‘golferdude54’ kicks off the thread saying:

“Mizuno MP 14/29. Titleist 681T. Nike Forged Blades. TaylorMade P7TW.

Among these irons that helped Tiger win 15 majors, which is your favorite in terms of looks?”

And our members have been naming their favorites and why in response.

Here are a couple of posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

SwingBlade: “I prefer the early blades he played and the more recent TM TW’s especially because after Tiger had his major behavioral setbacks, part of Nikes support payback was making Tiger play a Nike putter and cease using his beloved uniquely customized Scotty putter.”
ProjectX: “This (Nike Forged Blades) and there’s not even a close second.”
