Cleveland has one as well. Smart Sole

Cleveland smart sole 4.0 is better in my opinion. Provides gap wedge, sand wedge, and even a chipper. Worth a look at.

I’ve been watching all of the major golf-related KZread streamers consistently for the last six months and I would honestly put you in my top 3. The content is unique but relatable, informative as well as entertaining. Thanks for what you do.

I picked up a Sure-Out my first year in golf. Surprised the guys when I could get out of a bunker on the first attempt every time... :) Great video.

Great vid! Got the Sure Out for my daughter a year ago and she started breaking 100 regularly as she didn't practice much on her short game. She doesn't use it as much now but does keep it for getting out of bunkers so it was a good pick up.

Bought one of these for my grandad on his birthday and he loves it. Lacks the speed to get out of bunkers amd find it really helps.

Another brilliant video Simon, looking forward to the next video

Thanks mate! Appreciate it. 🙌

Hi Simon, I've had my sure out 58 degree and it's made me a pretty good bunker player. Certainly helps when the sand is pretty deep. If the sands wet, I tend to play it hands forward to take a little of the bounce off. Its given me lots of confidence. A valued purchase

I have one in my bag Simon I love it thanks for the vid

I got a Sureout 64 degree with my first set of clubs, and its fantastic! Our bunkers are like mineshafts and this will get you out of them. I actually enjoy bunker shots now and learned to hit my other wedges better using this club. Crazy but hey, it works.

These clubs are a godsend, I like the happy medium so went for the CB 54*14 MD from Callaway so I can still have that versatility and almost cheat out of the bunkers with the 14* bounce. Nothing wrong with having a club 'dedicated' to bunker shots, just be more clinical with your gap and lob wedges👍

Great video. Your pragmatic real-world approach compelled me to subscribe. 👍🏻

I have a 58 degree Sureout and its the best wedge i've ever owned and i've tried all of them. I can chip it high with spin, low with spin, out of the sand , out of deep rough, with tight lies and deadly from 75 yds and i'm a scratch player. I don't care about looks or if it's for high handicappers, it works

Hi Simon bought the Sure out 18 months ago just for bunkers and 20 yards from green it works a treat and gives confidence 🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️

Damn Simon, I had to rewind to the beginning to make sure I saw that duff out the trap, yes my eyes didn't deceive me. Cleveland has a nice smart sole, I have one but rarely use it, may have to go back to it, short game has been horrible lately more focus than anything.

You have a great channel! Keep up the great content.

Love the quote “Oh my god it’s a shovel!.....it’s a shovel that does what you want it to do. Perfect for many 18 + h cap players. Great video

I’m a 14 and I love it. My buddy who’s a 7, took 4 strokes in a bunker with a pro style wedge, ruined the round 😬

I`ve got a set of normal wedges but do struggle in the winter with the soft conditions and don`t get to play as often. Might have to try one of these as i like your manual v automatic analogy!

The Cleveland Smart sole S came out before the Callaway Sure out, in the US at least. I had a smart sole for a while, and it was easy money from rough around the green, sand, and even full shots from the fairway from 95 yds. From packed sand, wet sand, hardpan, forget about it. Like you said it wont dig, and it's almost guaranteed to skip into the ball and blade it from those situations.

I bought one mainly for bunker shots and it’s nearly impossible to leave it in the bunker with the sure shot I have found that particularly with short sided flags, it’s now given me some confidence to use my other wedges it’s a really good club.

Not long after I started playing golf about 20 years ago I wanted a 60 degree wedge to complement the 52 and 56 in my set of irons and i bought a Dunlop Solutions Utility Wedge Seres 60 degree lob wedge. It is very similar in appearance to the Callaway having what is described as a Skidplate sole design and is very easy to hit and may be an option for people if any are still available in the used market. I now use a Cleveland 588 RTX 60 degree which I love (haven't yet managed to track down 52 and 56 to go with it)

might consider one of these for my dad as a xmas pressie.

Good video, I'm a 14 HDCP and play pretty well but give up a lot of shots >100 yards in. I was convinced I need some SM8's or Cleveland wedges to replace my vokey's . I went and hit, SM8, ping slide, Calloway jaws... and then the Calloway CB Big Daddy. I kept hitting the CB on the same spot and the spin and distance control was consistent so i bought the 60 and 56. Then drove to my range and hit a bucket with them around and over sand. I excited to see if I can save those 6 shots every round...

use a 58 sure out as my goto sand wedge, brilliant club for flop shots over bunkers etc and lets you play awkward shots without having to think too hard.

Looking forward to the new video 👍

I love my Callaway Sure Out when in bunkers. Not as much around the greens

Hey Simon, great video! Taylormade makes the Bigfoot wedge that competes with the Sure Out :)

Good video mate. Think I’ve literally watched every you tubers videos through lockdown but love the channel as it’s more sincere than some of the just entertainment channels. Keep it going mate👍

depends on your handicap and confidence on chipping. I play off 12 and this year upgraded to 54 & 60 Taylormade MG 2's (the face rusts after time). These or Vokeys are great but also depends on how much you want to spend and if your brand loyal.

Hi Simon, what about the TM Hi Toe Bigfoot ? That has a huge sole too. Your wedge will be good to clear the path when it snows too !

Cleveland has some great chunky wedges✌🏻👍🏻

Thanks Simon, loving the content. What are your thoughts on the milled grind Hi Toe Big Foot. Seems be trying to do similar things but look a bit less ‘shovelly’ Would love to see you try it.

Mizuno Mj 62 wedge works a treat

I use the TaylorMade bigfoot, it’s so good out the bunker

that club is remarkably similar to my old Wilson Sandy Andy that I got for Xmas in 1979 and I still use it if the conditions are right . The Sandy Andy is tons of bounce and very heavy. Swing Weight E8. I use my wedge in soft sand and fluffy lies and the weight of it help with keeping the club accelerating through the ball.

Really struggled to get out of bunkers and I must say I was very tempted, but in the end I just worked it out with practice hours and hours ... With the latest rounds I did I can say I don't need it as much anymore

I recently got a square strike. I've been in a period of yipping some chips and don't have enough hours to spend practising my technique. I'm lucky if I can can on to the course every 2 weeks. Like you say, I just want to enjoy golf and hopefully this will help with that. I've put my ego away!

Cleveland Smart Sole Simon. Ace club mega out of the thick rough and fluffy bunkers and I play off 6. Cheers

Love my Cleveland cbx wedge 60 degree. Love it for the occasionally lobbed shot I need over a bunker around the green. Use more traditional wedges for all other shots.

I have a 54 and 60, the 60 is my favorite club in the bag.

Definitely looking into having something like this, the course is rubbish in places and never grows back .. it’s easier on a maintained course where you get a ball sat nicely on grass but the U.K. it’s mud in winter and hard pan in summer.

Cleveland Smart Sole is the same thing. It’s at 58 and gets out of deep bunkers at my course. A lot fewer hack attacks.

Can you compare this against the Cleveland Smart Sole?

Simon you can check but I think Cleveland has some smart sole wedges that are similar, I know they have the chipper cause I have one.

I’ve had the 56* for 2 years. Playing off 5 this is absolutely the easiest wedge to hit from the sand, the heavy rough, 2nd cut, fringe. I use it for every short shot inside 50 yards. I can hit it high. I can hit it low. I can make it run. I can make it spin and sit. Amazing out of the sand. You don’t have to open the club and your stance. Just set up square and let the bounce work. I will never go back to a “normal” sand wedge. Never!

@simonthorpe6971

Am I right in thinking, its aim square, ball ahead of centre, normal swing, aim 1/2 inches behind ball? Or can you dig your fit in, ball slightly ahead, then aim at ball knowingb club will automatically hit in sand due to your feet position?

I think for green side bunkers they are great for golfers from say 12 and above

Cleveland makes smart sole

Cleveland CBXs are pretty automatic, but more like a "real" wedge, but their Smart Soles are more like the Sure Outs.

"might just put it in my bag" 😂😂😂

Cleveland has their smart sole. Same type of wedge.

Great vid have you used a cleveland cbx?

I have both the infamous chipper and the Sureout 60 in my bag and I will never take them out. I find it amusing that people want to make a difficult sport more challenging (read frustrating). Play smarter, make it easier for yourself and ENJOY the game.

I couldn’t get out of bunkers until I bought a taylormade ATV 60 degree wedge. Now I have no problems

Never got on with this one however now our bunkers have more sand I have had to add bounce

I think Cleveland have one similar. I think it is called the smart sole?

finally moved from a 65 degree wedge (EX1) to Taylormade MG2 at 60 as i was in the camp of constantly thinning it out of the bunkers but now have more confidence, (although like you still the odd one goes astray) 😂🤣

No word of a lie i just bought and played with the sure out 2 today for the first time! First bunker shot straight out to inside 6ft!

What about the Taylor made big foot wedge with 15 degrees of bounce?

Hi Simon .. I was struggling with my short game saw ur video.. u won’t believe it .. it’s less than 5 hours ur released this video.. did some more research on this club and I am sold.. so just tried it at Golf Galaxy and bought one of this used 64 degree.. thanks for sharing it .. can’t wait to try it at the golf course.. 👍😊

Worst part of my game is chipping! Might look into this Calloway. My mate uses a chipper, what’s your thoughts on these?

HI SIMON XE1 at 59: / and 65: form USA

Cleveland golf make them are well.

I had a hogan sure out wedge back in the day I bought my hogan edge's. Definitely worked in soft bunkers but could be scary out of thin sand bunkers

Is it a legal club? I assume so and if helps the golfers to get the ball in the hole, speeding up play possibly, there is absolutely no problem. It adds the fun back into their game.

Left hand version for your bag?

The flop looks better, but surely lighter shot that you did with the bounce and land it just on the green and run towards the hole is a lot easier to play for every golfer and more consistent??

Great video!! Can anyone recommend what wedges to get and degree i.e 52 or 54 , 58 or 60 thanks.

@TheHayesTV

It depends on what degree your irons are, in my bag I try to keep around 4 degree loft difference in each wedge. I use mizuno MP wedges but vokey and Cleveland also do very good wedges. Please also remember about bounce, there is a few good videos out there that should help you understand this.

Hi can anyone give me the comparision on sure out 2 vs cleveland. Much appreciate

What about Cleveland Smart Sole

Cleveland Smart Sole. At the time I'm writing this comment, they're up to version 4.0 of the Smart Soles.

Cleveland has wide sole wedges

Cleveland Smart Sole is another option

Isn't another name brand version of this idea the TM Bigfoots?

TaylorMade had the atv wedges

Does anybody make a sure shot driver? hahaha my game could use it

Callaway bought the name Sure Out from Hogan along with the Apex. Chippers are like Fat Girls and Scooters.... great fun but you dont want your mates to see you riding one

Taylormade Hi-toe Bigfoot is almost like that

taylormade point and shoot wedge

Cleveland had their smart sole wedges for a long time. I would say that this Callaway is pretty much a ripoff of clevelands smart sole “s”

Taylormade Hitoe bigfoot?

IMO there are only two clubs that you should have in the bag that have only one use ... the driver and the putter Every other club should be adaptable to play different shots so for me the chipper is a wasted place in the bag But nothing wrong with having a high bounce wedge

No-one likes them - but everybody says they work! Just got an Alien Dual Sole - will let you know if it works for me?

How do I find your eBay profile?

It isn’t going to hurt. But it won’t help everyone. Rank beginners and players with an overall lack of skill, regardless of years of play, it won’t help much. But if you have a decent understanding of how you SHOULD use a wedge, this helps. Both in the sand and chipping from short rough.

Ben hogan sure out was the original.

I've had one of these in my bag for a year or so now. It's never going to win any beauty competition and, for me, it's no good on tight lies, but for getting out of bunkers it's almost like cheating. It could be argued that it's a bit of a one trick pony, but the same could be said of a driver and when that trick is so good, I'll not complain.

The Sure Out has been around forever. I even still have an old one in my garage. It was a Hogan Sure Out and is the same concept, but not quite as extreme as the new one. When Callaway bought Hogan years ago they obviously got the rights to the name and decided to relaunch it. But, like most things, it is just a new take on an old club. Almost nothing in golf is truly new anymore.

Simon what is your eBay handle ?

My garden spade is smaller 😂 . I tried one of these of a mate just to big for me .My 58 vokey only has 4 degree of bounce and l grind and works just aswell I found and I use it of all lies . But everyone has different opinions 👍

I gaged a little when I saw that sole...

Alot of us golfers should really putt close around the green an not give into the ego about it has to be wedge thrown in the air spinning crazy when most of time you'll thin it through the green

Would love to see how previous illegal drivers hold up to todays max COR limit legal drivers. Brilliant content Simon but every secret gem club you tell us about shoots up £40 in price the next day 😂😂😂

If it’s not Cleveland it’s not going in the bag

The worst shots I ever hit have been with wedges. Hitting a drive or approach in the water or ob is a one shot or stroke and distance. Skulling a pitch over the green into the woods or under a pine tree, that is the worst. That’s why I chip whenever I can these days. Wedges r the only clubs that haven’t really been marketed for playability, we r just expected to hit a 60 off a tight lie. Perhaps if I played at a country club where the lies tend to be Cush and the greens fast and well bunkered, then I would be more enthusiastic about the 60. At the muni level of course, I am looking to get the ball rolling on the green as soon as possible

Bloody hell you've aged in a year hahahahhaaha jk - great vid

Who give a shit what clubs you have. If it helps to lower scored use it.
