Nike Engage wedges now available

Published

on

Nike’s new Engage sole wedges, which come in three different models — Square, Toe Sweep and Dual — are now available to purchase on Nike’s website and sell for $119 per wedge. The raw wedges are cast from 8620 carbon steel, and come stock with True Temper’s Dynamic Gold S400 shafts.

Learn more about each of the three models below.

Square Sole 

SquareSole

Nike’s Square Sole wedge is designed for straight-face shots. There’s moderate heel relief in the 58- and 60-degree options, while the 54- and 56-degree options have a “Tiger-inspired leading edge bevel.”

Here’s a chart from Nike that shows the Square Sole’s strengths and weaknesses. Looks like a pretty solid all-around choice, no?

Toe Sweep

ToeSweep

The Toe Sweep wedge is designed for golfers who like to play open-faced shots, thanks to its wide toe and narrow heel. The grind helps to keep the club face from closing through impact, especially out of thick rough or sand.

Here’s a chart from Nike that shows the Toe Sweep Sole’s strengths and weaknesses. Find yourself in a lot of thick greenside rough or a lot of bunkers? This might be your wedge.

Dual Sole

DualSole2

Nike’s Dual Sole wedge, which is currently in Rory McIlroy’s bag (59 degrees), has two differently angled surface grinds — one for square-faced shots and one for open-faced shots — making it the most versatile of the models.

Here’s a chart from Nike that shows the Dual Sole’s strengths and weaknesses.

    I saw these last night. These look great to me. The Dual sole may end up in the bag.

    Saw them this afternoon. Not impressed. Will not be replacing my trusty Nike forged heads with these.

    But trying to get the wax coating off, that’s a whole nother ballgame.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping

Published

on

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.

That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.

On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”

On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”

“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Check out Shipley’s full what’s in the bag and the rest of his wedge stampings here on “Inside the Ropes” from Colonial.
