With a price tag of $40 per club (2010 prices), these clubs are a steal
and definitely make you wonder if they are any good since they are so
cheap.
These clubs actually get an A rating.
For the price you can afford to get all three wedges and even get them
cut down or re-gripped if the stock size and grip don't work for you.
The feel of these clubs was fairly good. I thought I could feel the
ball on my club face pretty good and carry the ball to about 10 yards
of my desired distance. I think a "B" rating is appropriate.
The Founder club wedges did seem to ring my hands a bit on off centre
shots and they are not as forgiving as cavity backed wedges like some
of the Callaway or Taylormade ones available. A "B" rating is
about right for these wedges.
Last but not least, accuracy seemed to be excellent. I felt
like I was hitting all three of the Founder club wedges right
on the money. My shots were consistently going just right or
on target with only a small distance off target. I give these clubs an
accuracy rating of A based on my experience hitting these wedges.
I will keep you posted on how these clubs perform on course.
