T24
CaddyIndex™ breakdown: what our research found across each of the six performance dimensions, with cited sources.
You play off 18 or better, strike your wedges cleanly and want one of the highest-spinning, most versatile forged tour blades with gorgeous looks - around £180.
You need greenside forgiveness or the softest possible feel - the cavity-back Pro T-3 or a boron-free Pro wedge suits better.
Pros
- Among the highest-spinning wedges around - higher-spinning Quad Cut and HydroFlow grooves really grab the ball
- Five grinds (S, D, C, V, X) including a new high-bounce V - the deepest grind matrix in the line
- Soft, receptive Grain Flow Forged HD feel with a copper underlay
- Clean, classic teardrop looks with premium finishes
Cons
- A blade-style design with limited greenside forgiveness - best for confident strikers
- Boron makes the feel a fraction less buttery than the boron-free Pro wedges
- Premium pricing at the top of the category at around £180
By dimension
Forgiveness
Blade-level, for confident strikers - the compact head and lower flight make the T24 best suited to confident short-game players, though the high spin and multiple bounce options help higher handicaps who get creative. Demanding but rewarding for a clean striker.
Distance
Best-in-class spin - the T24's higher-spinning Quad Cut grooves with HydroFlow micro grooves really grab the ball, one of the highest-spinning wedges around, with better spin than the T22 in dry and wet conditions. Among the highest-spinning wedges available for tight distance control.
Workability
Best-in-class - five grinds (S, D, C, V, X, including a new high-bounce V for steeper attacks) cover every delivery and condition, the compact teardrop blade aiding shot control. Among the most versatile players' wedges for shaping shots.
Feel
Soft and receptive - the Grain Flow Forged HD Boron head with a copper underlay feels beautiful, both soft and receptive, with a really solid sensation at impact and a little sweetness to perfect strikes. Among the better forged wedge feels, if a fraction less buttery than the boron-free Pro wedges.
Sound
A quiet, full note - a notably quiet, below-average-volume muted knock that is nonetheless full-throated rather than thin, one of the more pleasing wedge impact sounds, a soft, understated acoustic from the copper underlay. A clean, premium impact note.
Looks at address
Best-in-class - the classic teardrop steps away from the busier T22 graphics for a clean line and subtle branding, with the loft and bounce tucked neatly on the toe, with improved aesthetics and premium finishes (Soft White Satin, Denim Copper, Tour Raw). Among the best-looking wedges in golf.
