Comments about Hireko XI128:Professional Open Series 690 Wedge - Custom Assembled:

Excellent feel and will work better if you if you select the Right Shaft according to your Swing.I have several name brands wedges. But I like this wedge better with a Custom Shaft. The problem with the Name Brands is... you are STUCK with the Factory Shaft.

Comments about Hireko XI128:Professional Open Series 690 Wedge - Custom Assembled:

I can NOT comment on the club at this time, as I had to return the club. It was built 1 inch longer than standard length. I am now waiting for it to be returned. I would appreciate if you would keep me informed as to the progress.

Comments about Hireko XI128:Professional Open Series 690 Wedge - Custom Assembled:

after just a few weeks i was comfortable enough to pull a long iron out of my bag to make place for the 68 degrees! i now use it on a regular basis.
i am a "Dave Pelz fanatic" and i have pushed his theories to the limit:i have SIX wedges on my bag!
my average score went down 15 shots the last 5 months. at that price, you cant take the chance NOT to try it!

Comments about Hireko XI128:Professional Open Series 690 Wedge - Custom Assembled:

I was originally playing off the shelf branded sand and lob wedges for years but was never accurate with them. I always pulled every shot so I would stand open to my targets to compensate. I realized that these clubs did not fit me since I'm a short player and the lie was too upright. I came across Hireko and decided on custom ordering 56deg and 60deg wedges. The price was just so right. Got the wedges and am impressed in the finish and quality. I now aiming dead at my target and hitting it. These wedges have boosted my confidence in my short game.

Comments about Hireko XI128:Professional Open Series 690 Wedge - Custom Assembled:

I assembled two wedges--a 60 deg and a 68 deg. Both are great clubs at any price. The 68 is very hard to use--(not the clubs fault)
