Golf Pride Decade II Grip
Amazon.com Product Description
Wilson Staff Tw7 wedges give aggressive golfers a powerful but precise instrument that's perfect for attacking pins from every direction. The wedges are available in five different models: a gap wedge (with a 52-degree loft/6-degree bounce), two sand wedges (with a 54-degree loft/8-degree bounce and a 56-degree loft/10-degree bounce), and two lob wedges (with a 58-degree loft/12-degree bounce and 60-degree loft/8-degree bounce). Combined, this series of aggressively grooved wedges is a perfect complement to Wilson Staff's line of classic forged wedges. The Tw7 cast-stainless-steel wedges feature a matte gunmetal finish that reduces sun glare, along with exclusive "control grooves" designed by Wilson Staff member Padraig Harrington for maximum control. The control grooves conform to USGA limits, but are deeper and steeper than industry standards, with a 32.5-degree angle and square edges (as opposed to the 42.5-degree angle and rounded edges of standard grooves). The squared edges result in more spin, stronger bite, and better control on the green, encouraging experienced golfers to hit aggressive approach shots with precise spin.
Each Wilson Staff Tw7 wedge also features a True Temper dynamic gold shaft with a .355-inch taper tip, along with a Golf Pride W/S Decade II grip. Perhaps best of all from Wilson's perspective, the Tw7 wedges contribute to the company's proud tradition of wedge construction. From Gene Sarazen's original sand wedge designs in 1932 to the Dyna-Powered wedges that dominated the game in the '50s and '60s from master clubmaker Robert Medrella, the Wilson Staff Tw7 wedges only add to Wilson's historical influence in the wedge category. Wilson wedges have been played by some of the most famous names in the history of the sport, having won more than 1,500 PGA tournaments and 79 majors.

About Wilson Staff
In 1914, three events heralded the beginning of an exciting new era in golf. First, the flamboyant Walter Hagen won the U.S Open Championship. His amazing golfing skill and colorful personality captured headlines, increasing the nation's interest and participation in the game. Second, Henry Ford introduced the mass production assembly line, thereby doubling his workers' wages. He set a precedent that helped establish a new era in which the average man had both the time and money to play what had previously been a rich man's game. Third, Wilson Sporting Goods Company entered the sporting goods business. In the years to come, Wilson's bold new club ideas helped make the game more enjoyable for more golfers than ever before in the history of the game.
In 1954, Wilson helped introduce the modern era of power golf with its introduction of the Wilson Staff ball, the famous "long ball" that springs off the club face 40 percent faster than the speed of the clubhead. Since its introduction, the Wilson Staff ball has helped win more Masters and U.S. Open championships than any other ball. Over the years, such golfing greats as Gene Sarazen, Sam Snead, Walter Hagen, Arnold Palmer, Nick Faldo, Payne Stewart, John Daly, and Vijay Singh have served on the Wilson Advisory Staff.
