  I still can't figure it, this is the start of his history:

  November 03, 2016

  •  has rented the PING Tour W 60° Wedge (L60+) in the Pro Shop.
  •  has rented the PING Tour W 54° Wedge (L60+) in the Pro Shop.

  So presumably he doesn't have them then.  He has rented and bought an awful lot of equipment (bought five putters from memory) also cc passes and one or two boosts, but no mention that I saw of wedges or a bundle.  Could it be that wgt give things to very good customers?  Or maybe he simply got a spend x and get wedges.

  I've seen these "bundles" be offered on the WGT Mobile app. Here is a screenshot of one of them that was offered to me over the Holidays:

  

  I've also played against someone who was around level 87 and he had the level 90 TM irons. I asked him how he got them and he said he was offered a bundle that included the irons and a bunch of other things. It's very probable the member in question acquired the wedge in a similar bundle.

  The player in question could have gotten the clubs before WGT changed club sales from tier to levels.

  If that was the case, the club in question wouldn't show a level.  I'm still using the (really) old 54 and 60 degree Taylormade wedges, both purchased prior to the change from tier to levels, and neither one of them shows a level.

  *Note to self: you really need to upgrade those...*  ;-)
