No golfer should be without it in their bag |

I started with the 60 degree wedged and quickly understood the value of this club, especially with the C grind sole. This is my go to club inside 70 yards and even in deep greenside bunkers. The ability to open the clubface slightly to adjust the trajectory of the shot and hit that high soft flop just like the pros has all of my buddies saying "Man I wish I could hit that shot!" The XFT wedges are now the only wedges in my bag, a 50 gap wedge, a 54 and sometimes 56 sandwedge depending on the course conditions and always the 60. The feel and versatility of these clubs have helped me bring my handicap down to a 7 and it is going lower as I gain more confidence with these clubs from 110 yards and closer to the green, Thanks for an awesome line of clubs.....Having the ability to replace the face insert is simply a BONUS and will ensure these clubs will be in my bag for a long time to come.

This club is a sleeper!!! |

By sleeper, I mean it has not gotten the recognition it deserves! For being TM's first attempt at a removable faceplate, this club is awesome. It has a great soft feel to it, and is a very versatile club.
Looking down, you cannot tell that you can take the face off. I have had two in the bag since last June and have not had to replace the faces yet, but will likely do so this summer. Then I can practice with the old faces and play with the new! The stock shafts are great, I love KBS shafts. The weighting on the club head is a perfect match for this shaft.
My favorite shot is the 25 yard bounce, bounce, stop (this is because it bounces twice and then stops). I can do it with other clubs, but it just seems so easy with this club (after years of perfecting it, that is :)
My only complaint is that the seal that is made by the removable face does allow water to get in. This does not seem to affect the clubs playability. Also, the gap that goes around the face plate is difficult to clean without taking the face off. This leads me to my favorite part: You can easily clean the face in the sink, AND you can get the grit that forms in the corners of a normal iron without a problem (no corners when the plate is removed.)
All things considered, this was the best wedge that I have ever played, and that includes the infamous 2009 Spin Milled by Titleist.
Thanks for reading!

Great feel |

This wedge is great. It has great feel and reacts great. I would purchase this wedge over and over again. I would highly reccomend this to any player of all levels. Easy to remove the grooves and replace them if needed. Club is heavier than most wedges but plays well.

Hit my XFT 56 degree wedge at the range the other day, and I have to say I'm impressed. Ball comes off the face nice and smooth and with an incredible amount of spin!

Couldn't be more satisfied |

I have the 60* and couldn't be more happy with it. It gets me out of a fair share of jams and love to pop it over a tree while my friends look at me like I'm crazy to try to get it over. It's easily the club I pull with the most confidence. I like the heaviness and can't tell it's got a removeable face. Although these have been out for a couple of years now, I went out and bought the 56* today. I highly recommend these to anybody...in fact I'm constantly selling them to my friends on the course. Now, if only I could hit my driver with such consistency!
