The Indi Golf StingRay TT wedges are the tournament legal version of the original StingRay. Lots of spin. Excellent sole design. Introduction

My current wedges are PING Glides which I like and have used multiple lofts and grinds as I refine my set make up. These wedges are 2-3 years old of 20-30 rounds per year of play and practice sessions similar to those above. I am sure there is an opportunity to raise spin to improve stopping power both on approaches and greenside. As far as to whether the Indi wedges create more spin than competitors as they claim. I can’t say for sure. According to the launch monitor, they do spin more, and it seems to show on the course, with some examples like these. Basically a one hop and stop from the 50 degree wedge.I would say I’m still far more comfortable with the 50 degree than either of the other wedges, but they are coming around. The 58 degree with the ATK head has been especially interesting as by the description from Indi, it really doesn’t fit my swing. I don’t take deep divots, and the area I live in is pretty much in a perpetual drought, so things tend to be pretty dry, but I do like having the sole relief of the ATK. I think the right call was made to go with the FLX head in the other two as I use them for full swings a decent amount of the time, but the 58 degree is almost never hit with a full swing. a 7 yr old grandson who lives to play the game and his dad who is my regular golf partner (Yes, that's him dragging his plastic clubs a 4yrs old as my avatar). Well, yes I am going to put these in the bag. I think the more I use them the better they will get. The only caveat is that if we have another wet winter I may just "rest" them till the ground firms up again. Trajectory - Lower overall flight. I found shot trajectories are more controlled with these over the CBX’s, which are meant to help folks get their wedge shots in the air. I really love how a simple adjustment of ball placement took the ball from high arching to low and spinny. And to see the ball really grab on those low ones to release and gently roll out on hard greens, just meant one thing - more confidence.

The top of the PING Glide 2.0 (above right) has less exaggerated weight in the high toe vs the 3.0 and the Indi's. The soles are much more similar in width as well both having 12 deg of bounce. I think this clubs will function very similarly (insert foreshadowing )... My 48* set AW is my 115 yard club which I used for partial shots all the way down to 70/80 yards. The 52 Indi tops out around 105 which was nice to have another full swing and became my default from there down to 70-80 yards given the strong performance I felt I was seeing on course. Upon final review of my approach stats, my 48 produced 9% higher GIR (66 vs 57) from up to 10 yards further from the green with 6ft closer proximity to hole (37 vs 44) and 0.1 fewer strokes to hole out. A game I play is from the book Lowest Score Wins where you hit 3 balls from 1 spot to 3 different holes and score points for a ball ending within X feet of the hole, where X is your index (9 for me) and lose points outside this distance. You finish when you get to 50 points. Because of time constraints I only played to 25, butI got there significantly faster with the Indi 60 than my PING 58. This was after only using the wedges for 10-15 minutes vs something I have bagged for 2-3 seasons. Fast forward to 2016 and while I remember the round, golf is not a table item as I am into riding motorcycles.Workability is excellent. I always like to be able to open the face, use the bounce and try things. These clubs welcome that sort of behaviour and like to help. The groove out to the toe have taken a beating from me so far local rounds with the Indi's resulted in positive SG vs a 5 index (previous performance was at that of a 15 index or ~1.5 SG worse) Now when it comes to performance, these wedges come into their own. For a start these things are accurate!! Well, as accurate as I can make them . When I put a good swing on them, I can put it straight down the barrel. Spin: Incredible spin and response from traditional golf balls and range balls! The TractionFace and 22 V-Grove design truly allows for maximum spin. Provided more spin than my Vokey SM7 wedge.
