Read the other reviews and had to see how this wedge performed. I had moved from a Vokey wedge to a Pelz wedge a year ago.
I wasn't happy with the Pelz wedges. Not much feel and they didn't suit my game.
The Nike lob wedge is very easy to hit and it provides considerable spin to your shots. You can take dead aim at the flag and know that if you can get it close it will stop.
The only downside is it will chew up your golf balls a little bit. May be worth it to have the ball stop at three feet...? Great wedge and I am looking forward to shaving strokes off my next round.
Pros: Quality, Easy to Use, lots of spin. stop and drop!
Cons: chews up golf balls

Well i bought 2 of these clubs during memorial day sales event, and I have been on the course 3 times since. I got the Sand and Lob. On my first 18 it took a bit to get used to because the bounce on the club is minimal allowing you to cut underneath and get some spin generating. I came off of my Gap and Sand from the Slingshot series, so that bounce is big difference on the clubs. I say by the 7th hole i was able to adjust where i wasn't getting to much and whiffin the ball only half the distance i was trying for, and i was making solid contact. Then it took about 6 more holes to get the judgment on how hard i needed to hit, cause with this club you can set the ball where you want with little effort. Generates alot of spin and alot of control even on down slopes and hills. I was fairly happy after the first day. The second day I went back out and gave it ago with my new short game approach and really took it serious and aggressively. I normally shoot 82-86 but on day 2 i shot a 80. I was hitting my mark and it was nice and it gave me the confidence, and inturn i had a better experience. Day 3 went and played on really nice course. the greens were soft and freshly cut. Every shot that hit the green either stopped on the first bounce and pulled back atleast 2 feet, again had confident day and better overall experience and i shot a 79 on day 3. Overall I have to say that its been nice so far with these clubs and i cant wait to play some more. It might take a couple of games to adjust, but thats natural. And when you come to get in the groove the clubs are fantastic. They have a nice heavy feel to them so your always getting down on the ball. Hope this helps. The only downside i have to say is the black starts to scratch to a greyish silver, but i like the black over the sterling so i guess thats my fault.
Pros: Quality, Durability, Good Value, Features
Cons: takes adjustment
