Seven pieces. Adjustable loft. Adjustable sole. Adjustable face. 100 percent milled. Does that description really do Bruce Sizemore’s new wedges justice, though?

Whether you love or hate the way Sizemore’s early prototype MORE wedges look, there’s no question that the veteran club designer has reimagined a category of clubs that has seen only minor changes in the last 20 years. That’s why most golf equipment geeks can recite the laundry list of things that are celebrated when a new wedge is released: More spin. Repositioned mass for a better ball flight. Tighter tolerances and a softer feel. More lofts, more grinds, and more custom options.

Sizemore’s new wedges have all of that and more (that’s how they got their name), but they don’t look like the others. They’re so different, in fact, that people might question why they had to look so different. They seem like the kind of wedge someone makes when they don’t care about selling wedges. And in a lot of ways, they are, and that’s why Sizemore thinks they’re going to sell.

“I didn’t want to just break the conventional wedge mold,” Sizemore says. “I set out to shatter it.”

While Sizemore isn’t a household name, he’s known in the industry for his work at Copper Stix and the Bruce Sizemore Collection: companies he founded that specialized in premium putters. He also produced a line of putters for SuperStroke before the company decided to focus primarily on grips in 2013.

Some of Sizemore’s putter designs were radical, but didn’t provide the same shock the systems his new wedges do. The quick assumption is that his wedges are designed to be “anti shank,” and it’s true that raising the hosel does stand a chance to do that. The intention, however, was to help the best golfers in the world keep the hosel of the wedge from catching in deep rough.

When the wedges are launched, Sizemore says they won’t feature the “lump” on the toe that’s visible in this story’s photographs of his early prototypes. He says he’s also going to make another wedge face that will be released at a later date with a more traditional hosel position. It will appeal to golfers don’t want to see a radically different-looking wedge at address.

“All the components will be compatible,” Sizemore says. “I’m sensitive to the fact that golf is expensive, and I’m not trying to make it more expensive. I’m trying to make it more affordable. It’s kind of how people look at buying a $400 putter. This is a true investment, because you never have to throw it away. From time to time, all you’ll have to do it change the faceplate.”

Sizemore plans to launch several different types of adjustable wedges that feature his ball-and-socket hosel design. There will be a widely adjustable version that can be set to 52, 56, or 60 degrees, as well as two other models with more specific loft ranges (47-50-53, 55-58-61).

On top of adjustable lofts, the wedges also have an adjustable rear sole attachment that allows golfers to install one of three different “sole grinds,” which is a misnomer in Sizemore’s case. The MORE wedges are entirely machined, so nothing is ground or polished. The three different rear sole attachments range from 4-14 degrees of bounce and use different sole widths and heel/toe profiles to suit different swings and course conditions. Golfers can even add slightly more toe relief or heel relief by inverting the orientation of the washers that secure the rear sole attachment.

“I believe these are the most significant wedges ever introduced to the game,” Sizemore says. “They’re packed full of industry-first, game-improvement performance technologies.”
