The NEW Takomo Wedges are unbelievable value for money!

After initially reviewing one of the new Takomo SF002 Wedges, as promised, here is my on-course review of my entire wedge set.

In this set, I have a 52°, 56° and a 60° to work with and having never owned a 60°, I’m extremely excited to get to grips with it.

Takomo are currently in an excellent spot, using the likes of Grant Horvat, The Bryan Bros and Luke Kwon to represent their brand and add more eyes to their corner of the golf club market.

Takomo golf clubs are excellent and I am extremely lucky to have a full bag. If you want more videos looking at my clubs, make sure you let me know!

I’ve managed to get my hands on a set of the brand new Tacoma wedges. And after many requests on social media, here’s my full review. This video will answer some of the main questions you have. For example, what’s the difference between the F and the V grind? Why are they so cheap? And what set should you get? Make sure you stick around to the end of the video where I attempt to get out this 8ft bunker with my 60°. So, what is the main difference between the F and the V grind? When you head to the Tacoma website, unlike the last wedges, when you click on the loft, there’s a lot more to choose from. If you scroll down, Tacoma provides you all the differences between this wedge and the last wedge. It’s a cast design, and they’ve got a V grind and an F grind. The V is for versatility. It’s a higher bounce grind for shot making. So, if you’re good with your wedges, you want this grind. The F and F grind stands for full, so higher forgiveness. It’s got a thicker sole, so it’s for a square path. So, if you want to put at the back of your stance, you want to play little bump and runs or maybe you’re not overly confident with your wedges, the F grind is more important for you. This means the F grind is better for fuller shots. Now, the reason Tacoma are able to make highquality clubs at a low cost is because it’s direct to consumer. And this basically means there’s no middleman, no retailer ramping up the cost. One of the biggest changes with this wedge is the new face design. So the grooves are on the entire face, which means you get a bit more forgiveness, especially when you’re opening the face. For me personally, when I’m opening the face, I can hit off the toe sometimes. If the grooves are on the entire face, it means I still get spin even if I hit it out the toe. Now, this design isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but for me, I love the way it looks. You get a load of confidence when you’re behind the ball. Another massive design change they’ve done is they’ve changed from a forged wedge with the original wedges into cast wedges. Most wedges are cast wedges, but it means you’ve got this really slick finish. They’ve also changed the font and the logo of Tacomao, which I think looks fantastic. All three wedges look amazing. Anyway, let’s head out to the course. I’ve got a 52, a 56, and a 60° to test. Okay, I’m going to have to get it just to land just on here. I think things I have to lift it in the air because of this little hill, but I got to try and get it to stop quick. Oh, pretty good. I actually hit it a bit too hard. I landed at about here, but it managed to check up quite nice. Okay, that was a tough shot. Really nice up and down. It came gliding off the face there. I missed my spot, but I think I was a bit scared of hitting the banking, so I hit a little bit harder. But even though I over hit it, it still spun quite nicely. So 60° first impressions is pretty good. So I’m just going to try and lift it just onto the green a little bit and see if it rolls out. So 56 back of the stance. Let’s see if this is should check when it hits the green. Okay, it’s pretty good. You know that’s better. Look at that. Really nice. to get used to how spinny this is. Okay, this is where these Tacoma wedges need to come in clutch. So, I’ve got the green light to be aggressive here. There’s an ups slope before the pin, but it is downwind. But this 60° should spin loads. I used it before in the practice green and it’s so spinny. Again, these wedges are surprisingly so spinny. Like, usually Lynx golf, I play it short and run it up, but with these Tacomaomas, they seem to spin a lot. So, let’s be really aggressive with the 60. Land it maybe in between the green and the pin. Okay. Not great to be honest. That’s better. Look at that. That’s so good. So so good. That’s way spinnier. Okay. Surprisingly lots of spin. I’m going to hit one more for fun. That’s a really good one. Okay, so four shots. Two poor, too good. The two good ones are very, very close. The two poor ones are still giving me a chance. So 60°, two poor shots, still very consistent. Okay, we’re in the rough here. It’s a weird lie. I’m going to hit this 52° back of the stance in a bit more of a closed face and try to get it running. It’s setting up a little bit on this rough, so it’s going to come off high in the face. So, try and get a bit more juice. I pulled it. It was a good shot. Get myself a bit further back. That’s a bit of a scabby lie. Let’s not try and pull it as much as that. That’s nice contact. Okay, really nice. Okay, let’s give myself a terrible lie. Little scab. That’s a horrible scabby lie. Back of the stance through it. Glides off the surface really, really nice. Bit heavy, but pretty good. That was about an inch behind the ball there, and it was still a good shot. One of the most difficult shots for an amateur golfer, as I’m sure you’re aware, is that 60 to 80 yard wedge shot. So difficult. It’s all feel pretty much. You can do the Bryson Shambo clock thing, but doesn’t really work. It’s all feel from this sort of situation. That felt good. Spin. Yeah, really nice spin actually. Let’s have another go with the 56. Aim a bit more to the right. Ah, I pushed it. Go. Oh, okay. Let’s try with the 60 now. 60°. A little bit more juice, but it should spin more. That’s really nice spin. That is so goodoo. Okay. Pretty nice. Since we put one in the bunker, might as well try it out. So, 60°. Let’s We have to lift it over this lip. Pretty difficult wedge shot, but let’s open the face of the 60. Try and get it to stop relatively quick. It’s on the down slope, so it won’t stop too quick. That’s so good. No words. Zero words needed there. I’ve sprayed my ball to the right. I’ve got a lot of green to work with, but it’s a very tricky shot. I’ve got to carry it to the green because it’s a down slope up into it. So, I’ve got to carry it to the green, but get enough spin that it’s going to check and release. Spin. Okay, that’s so good. Oh man. Right, let’s go a bit lower. Yeah, that’s nice. It’s spun a lot more than I thought it would, but pretty good now. 60. Oh, pulled it. Get right. Oh, look how fast that checked up. Oh my god. The ultimate test. Can I get out of this ridiculous 8 foot 9 foot bunker? I have no idea how to do this, but a 60°ree will help. Oh, I give myself a few tries at it. Come on, I can do it. Oh my god, so close. Then he go further back. Let’s go closer. Come on. I can do it. Oh my god. I’ve got it now. Let’s go even closer. Oh man. Oh my god. That one was so close. So there we have it. My initial review. I’m still going to go out and practice with these clubs a little bit more, see what they’re really like over a few rounds. But those were my initial thoughts of the 52, 56, and the 60° in the new Tacoma wedges. If you enjoyed this video, please make sure you leave a like. There’s videos on the screen right now.
