    Has it been removed from the starter wedges?

    I've had shots from 50-70 yards that would normally stick previous to today's update (w/max backspin) that now roll like they were fairway woods (2nd and 3rd hole approaches, with wind at back).

    Kinda noticed that myself. I just think the greens run way faster... Kinda hoped the new irons had more spin control.  Haven't bought them for that reason..

    Looking forward to more club choices

    Enjoy your play

     I believe it has to do with the more realistic green speeds.  The fact that we had backspin at all on beginner clubs was a bit unrealistic anyway.  At any rate, we can see the room for inprovement with future club sets.

    The spin on the wedges isn't bad.

    I got tired of seeing my LW/SW shots roll away from their target.  It's not a drastic improvement, but it's noticable and useful.
