The Tour-S is a well designed club. For me. the 58 degree wedge performs more accurately than a 60 degree. When I am looking at the distance to pin I left shots 8 - 15 feet short of the intended impact area almost every time it was used. Practice, with a 60, on the range has never allowed me to overcome fear of hitting a ball too long when within 40 yards of a green. This 58 degree wedge is perfect at compensating my visual picture of target to swing speed short comings.
I am a 16 handicap and these wedges are solid all the way around. Actually I have hit everything from junk irons to pro-line clubs and I have played to a 9 at best when I could play more and practice a bit. I hate practice so I avoid it at all costs. These wedges are awesome and at 67 I need all the help I can get. I just recently purchased a set of Ping Tour 57 irons with extra stiff shafts because my previous set of graphite Adams regular shafts were all over the place. I guess I still attack the ball kind of hard so the extra stiff stainless shafts are what I need even though I know my club head speed is much slower than when I was a kid. Maybe in about 10 years I will be ready for a more flexible shaft but you know what they say about teaching old dogs new tricks.
These are definetly a tour quality wedge, when you consider wedges utilizing the new standard grooves. They have a very nice feel to them, spin above-average, and set up very well for multiple shots. The KBS shafts are probably the best stock option they come with, and make them spin even better. I would say these are every bit as good as a Titleist, Cleveland or Mizuno wedge....each having their own pros and cons
Lofts the ball as a 56 degree wedge should; has satisfactory feedback; another solid Ping product.
