Guide Review - Feel Golf 52-Degree Designer Wedge

With its sole design, including the 9 degrees of bounce, the 52-degree Designer Wedge from Feel Golf is tailor-made for play from rough and sand. The 52-degree's color is yellow, and it's a bold yellow. A player's reaction to that color will color his reaction to the club as a whole. Most of those we shared the club with found the color striking, rather than a strike against it. The grooved area of the face (and the sole) are in Feel Golf's Gun Metal finish, which promotes a more "slippery" feeling - allowing the ball to climb up the face a bit to impart spin.
