Wilson PMP Wedges: What you need to know
Wilson’s new PMP wedges (Precision Milled Performance) use the company’s full-volume HM grooves, as well as “Micro Spin Lines” between each groove to maximize spin on both partial and full wedge shots.
The PMP wedges ($99.99 each) have already been used on the PGA Tour by Troy Merritt, Ricky Barnes, and Brendan Steele, and we expect Kevin Streelman and Padraig Harrington to be gaming them in 2016 as well.

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.
Joel Thelen
Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.
First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.
Mitchell Meissner
Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
Bud Cauley had >14 clubs in his bag when photographed prior to the Memorial Tournament.

- macedan: “Started with a hand-me-down Golden Bear set from my brother when I was in high school, never really played more than once a year or got into the game until about summer of 2017. First purchased a set of Cleveland CG4’s (I actually really miss this set sometimes, soft & not terribly large for a GI iron), moved into Nike Vapor Fly’s by the end of the year. Those lasted until spring of 18 when I decided I wanted new, so I traded them in for TM Rbladez. Honestly, although I liked the Rbladez, poor decision on my part, I think this was really about the only time so far that after a week or two I was kicking myself for not staying with what I had. Rbladez stayed with me until late last summer when I switched to P790’s and (knock on wood) I am hoping this will be my longest lasting set.”

The micro grooves are patterned in the same fashion as those on Wishon’s PCF Micro wedges, though they don’t appear to be as pronounced as the Wishon design. http://wishongolf.com/designs/wedges/pfc-micro-tour/
First time I’ve seen an OEM put something out similar to the Wishons, which have been available for several years now, and produce more spin off half-shots than anything else I’ve come across.

So many idiots comment on these pages. HE SAID HE ASKED TO REPLACE THEM AT HIS COST! Learn to read!!!

The club looks nice but I favor a forged wedge. Also the micro lines will be gone in one round in our sand based soil here in Florida. However I intend to try them and if the feel good they may replace my worn out Scratch wedges.

They look pretty good. I wish they would have kept the dark PVD finish as well, but I’d use the blue ones anyways.

Gave up on Wildon a few years ago after my golf bag was stolen from military housing in Hawaii. Contacted Wilson asking if they would help replace my irons ( at my cost). Was told sorry, can’t help. Mizuno and Peak Vision write me back thanking me for my service and replaced my wedges and sunglasses for Free! But I digress… Time has passed and I admit I like the looks of the new wedges… Will compare them to my current lineup ( cobra tour trusty).

Are you kidding me? The company won’t replace your stolen golf clubs, and it’s somehow their fault? You should count yourself very lucky that you somehow got your wedges and glasses replaced. It’s not the manufacturer’s duty to replace stolen product.
JohnJohn
Jan 5, 2016 at 2:51 pm
Oh I agree. I asked them to replace a model I could no longer find and I would pay for them. They just said can’t help you, it’s not our policy, not even a ” sorry we no longer carry these or we no longer have these is stock etc… Kudos to the other companies mentions for helping me.

We need to stop breeding a society of complainers. its also possible that the company has changed the way they manufacture and to set up molds of such club is not economical. Yes Ping will do this but they also will charge a premium to manufacture one-offs. Thank you for serving but please don’t blame the manufacture for your miss fortune.

Takes some balls (Duos) to post your comments about Wilson. So what they didn’t help. Had you said they didn’t replace a defected item it would have been different. Next time Wilson loses something they should call you looking for help on replacing it for free.

I believe he said he asked Wilson to replace the irons, “at his cost”.

Thanks Gary…I did say I would pay for the items stolen

Story makes no sense. My 3 year old set of clubs (I know u didn’t specify) were stolen, so please dust off the old manufacturing equipment and make me a new set. What did you expect them to say?

I guess maybe I thought they would say what Mizuno did
