Larry,

Yes, this is a more Tour-style wedge. There’s more forgiveness in PING’s Glide wedges. https://pluggedingolf.com/ping-glide-4-0-wedge-review/

Best,

Matt

Would you say these wedges are geared towards better players and may not a good option for a 15+ handicap player that struggles around the green and getting out of green side bunkers?

Bill,

I think the PING’s sole is a bit more averse to digging, so if you hit a lot of shots fat, I’d lean that way.

Best,

Matt

How would you compare the W grind S159 vs the Opus W grind? Did you prefer one over the other in that grind?

Brandon,

I did not see that in my testing.

Best,

Matt

I’ve noticed a few sources saying that the midnight finish spins less… I haven’t seen anything on the PING website. Are you able to confirm this?

Jim,

PING’s website doesn’t say anything about them being forged, so I would assume they’re cast.

Best,

Matt

Apologize if I missed it but I did look. Are these forged or cast? Thanks!

Jim

Brian,

The PING s159 is at the top of the list of wedges I would game if I had to replace my Edisons…but I don’t.

Meh…they seem ok. I’m guessing Matt there is no way these replace your Edison 2.0!??! I certainly wouldn’t trade mine for these new pings! ;-)
