That’s a neat looking, but expensive wedge. #007

Hi Matt,

I’ve been playing the Edisons (first version) for several years and it’s time to refresh. Based on this, I’m thinking Edison V2 probably do the low-launch, high-spin maybe a bit better, and the JP Camber’s would shine in being less likely to dig. Does sound right? Thanks! Jim

Finally got to try these out at Club Champion and I ordered a 48 and a 54 (bent to 53). They feel tremendous off the face and offer gobs of forgiveness and lots of spin. I did not get to hit them on turf which gave me a bit of pause, but off the mat they were checking all the boxes for me so YOLO (early 50th bday present to myself). I have a 49/53 Edison 2.0 in the bag currently and am evaluating those too. So far they are very forgiving (i have gotten away with murder with them twice on terrible strikes) and do spin very well. What I can say is that they don’t feel quite as nice (soft) as the JPs. I’m on the fence so far with the Koehler sole but I think it’s too soon to call. Overall both of these wedges seem to offer more performance than the RTX-6 wedges I have in the bag now (which are in their own right quite good). I also looked into the BGT REDZNE shafts after your review and ordered those after hitting them, REALLY REALLY nice, lived up to the description in your review for sure. I know some people would say spending this much money on wedges is insane, but I play a lot of golf and don’t hit nearly enough GIRs ;). Once I have more time with everything I’ll report back, but thanks for the info I doubt I would have even looked at products like these without your reviews.

It seems based on your reviews that the JP Camber (or Edison 2.0) wedges could be used by high handicap players due to the cavity back design. Is this correct? Thanks.

Brian,

Forgiveness is very close overall. To your question about high face strikes, it’s hard for me to say because I don’t know that I hit a single ball high on the face because of the JP Camber’s sole. My trademark thin strikes were still available, but the top of the face would have required real effort from me.

Best,

Matt

Matt,

Did you find the forgiveness on the JP cambers were close to or equal to the Edison 2.0 wedges? I’m considering both of these wedges and wondering if striking the ball higher on the face on the JP provided similar consistency to the Edison? Great review and loved the interview as well, these wedges are like pieces of art, it’s almost a shame to get them dirty lol
