  looks like that ball should have spun back another 10 more feet or so to me

  On full bs the ball will not spin back with the 60 yard Cleveland on an approach shot.

  Do you want accuracy or  magical replays?

  Extreme backspin with these wedges is unpredictable, due to landing surface and green slope as well as break.

  Yet they are very accurate with full  shots from bunkers and pitch shots and chips from various lies around the greens.

  LMAO. I'm having a good laugh at Jordan's expense because I talked him into a shot with his new rented toys during an AS match. He had a 50 yard approach to the 7th green at Kia and I told him it was a perfect punch with the CG64. I also said ( a bit evilly) he should try the backspin. Well, he did and it did just what you would have expected-landed at 50 and backed up 10 feet. With a Tour-SD ball no less!  His reaction, and I quote,  "HOLY COW!!"

  Seizing on the learning experience I pointed out now that he knows he doesn't need the spin to stop a shot, use it wisely in the future.  ;-)
