If you’re looking to put a specialist wedge in your bag, but you simply can’t afford the hefty pricetag of the big-name brands, then this is the perfect solution. It’s half the price of many of its competitors and, to be honest, you can hardly tell the difference. The brushed finish looks stylish and expensive. But where the MD Drew really shines is from tight lies and hard sand, as the leading edge has been designed to sit flush to the ground to help you nip shots off the turf, making this great for links courses. Its machine-milled face also delivered excellent spin and stop. “NV who?” was the first question from our young pro’s mouth when he was handed this one. Well, Norman Drew played in a Ryder Cup in 1959, and he teamed up with MD Golf in 2007 to design some topnotch wedges. The club features a CNC milled face while the standard bounce is reduced by around 50 per cent which makes ‘nipping’ the ball off the tightest of lies a little easier. Chris, Jon and Dave were impressed with the look of it, as well as the feel, but Dan felt the head was a little shiny. The NV Drew got the job done out of the sand too and overall this was a very respectable wedge. The fact it is available for under £50 is amazing.
