Who is the 690 wedge set aimed at?

Golfers who find blade wedges hard to hit consistently. The cavity back and rear weighting are built to help mid- and high-handicap players keep wedge shots closer to target.

How does it differ from a blade wedge?

It has a deeper cavity back with weight behind the sweet spot. That adds forgiveness and tighter dispersion on mishits, but gives up some of the shot-shaping control a blade offers.

The wedges are assembled by hand in Riverside, California, and shipped directly to the buyer.

Does the cavity back actually help accuracy?

The design puts more weight behind the sweet spot and deepens the cavity to reduce dispersion on off-center hits. Expect more help on mishits than a blade, though it will not fix a poor swing.

Is it a good fit for a low-handicap player?

Usually not the first choice. Better players tend to prefer blade wedges for feel and workability, while this set leans toward forgiveness.

Our take on the Professional Open 690 Golf Wedge Set

The Professional Open 690 is a set of cavity-back wedges built to be more forgiving than traditional blade wedges. Weight sits behind the sweet spot and the deep cavity back is meant to tighten dispersion on off-center hits, which helps higher-handicap players who struggle with thin or fat wedge shots. It is hand-assembled in Riverside, California. Against mainstream wedge lines it trades shot-shaping feel for forgiveness, so low-handicap players who want to work the ball may find it less precise.
