Description The Solus 56 utility wedge replaces the conventional sand wedge for all players - regardless of what type/texture of sand you encounter. Generally this club will play about 85-95 yards for average pla...
Summary: I never thought I'd switch from Cleveland wedges until now.These are by far the best wedges I've ever played.They have a very soft feel and produce a ton of spin.First time out I pitch in for an eagle on a par 5 using the 56*.I don't leave very many reviews but after using these I had to let every one know how good these wedges are.They are very easy to use and work great from 90yds in.I don't understand why more people don't use them.
Customer Service: Never used.

Summary: I write reviews here because i read reviews on this site before I buy the golf clubs,the reviews are helpful so I just want to give back. After reading the Solus reviews, I bought a 3 pc set on GolfClubExchange for $170, 51,56&61 degrees, RD4.1series.I used to play Cleveland then switched to Vokey Oilcans 56 &60 wedges. At first,my shots with the Solus clubs seems to go right,but after 2 rounds of playing w/them, i am now dead on target.Shots have a lot of spin on them,even on high rough and sand.Pitches and chips are always a gimme.Just like what the other reviewer said,of course you must already have and know the proper techniques of the shortgame,but these clubs are for real and can really help.

Summary: I have been a slow adopter of golf technologies. My game has been built around feel and rhythm. A few weeks ago I observed a gentlemen hitting short chip shots out of deep rough with a great deal of spin. This is not an easer shot. What caught my attention, he appeared to be a mid 80's players. I asked him how he was able to stop the ball out of the deep rough and he said its my new Solus 61 Wedge. He encouraged me to try a few shots out of the deep rough. I was shocked at the balance, control and spin it generated. At the time i did not even understand the crescent technology advantage. I decided to buy one as i was not in love with my cleveland 60. I found Solus had a 7.1 model which really fit my eye and bought it last week. I practiced with the club for 2 hours before putting in in bag. The club is superior in feel and control over my Cleveland. It provides more flexiblity allowing one to use it from a tight lie or bunker. This is not an infomercial posting. I played with my regular group last Wednesday. On the back 9 i struggled tee to green hitting only 4 greens.. I got up and down on the other 5 using the Solus. In fact i chipped in on 17 from the deep rough. I do not believe Solus or any club will lower your score if you do not already have the right technique. My recommendation is for anyone who has a good or great short game to get a solus in your hands. Try it from a variety of places and share you story. I just bought the 56 today and shared the clubs with a few other good players. Both gave the same response i did........the feel and performance were better than there titliest wedges. Good luck.......Rick Miami Fl

Summary: I also think Solus has found something different and important. I bought the 56 degree and found I felt more confident and in control regardless of the lie. There is something about the way the shaft and hosel meets the blade that makes it easier to pick the ball off the grass. Went back and got the 51 degree and feel the same. When I found my MP30 Mizuno clubs I feel in love. Feel the same way about these wedges. To each his own but I own these.
Customer Service: Bought it at Edwin Watts and PGA superstore
Similar Products Used: used mizuno wedges and tried the 56 degree F2 wedge. These were good and the F2 has merit but I like the look feel and design of the solus wedges

Summary: I've used the three (51, 56 and 61 degree) Solus wedges for several months. Best wedges I've ever used from tight lies. Open up the face, and they great from greenside bunkers. Anyone want to buy my old Cleveland wedges?
