The Tour Edge 521 Series 56 degree wedge
THE HOT LAUNCH 521 Series concludes with the wedges.
The wide sole puts the club weight both below and behind the ball, making it easier to get the ball in the air.
A dual-flange sole design comes with 14-degrees of bounce, this allows for the wedge to slide through the sand of grass, without digging in, and there reducing the amount of shots hit fat or skulled like line drives. This wedge promotes open faced shots for maximum loft.
The Hot Launch 521 series wedges or Iron-Wood set, come in lofts for Gap-Sand and Lob wedges.
The Houdini Sole, with it’s curved front edge, reduces turf interaction by 35% and helps with a “no dig” design, and less topped shots.
The wider sole-combined with a heavier head weight on the E521 promotes better contact and reduces miss-hits. it offers better results for all types of wedge play shots, including pitch shots, explosions shots from the rough or the sand, bump-and-run shots, flops shots or chipping around the green.
The deeper under cut cavity on the club, allows for more spin and enhanced flight, with better playability from both the sand or the rough. Grooves are maximized to USGA depth and sharpness for more spin and control.
