VICTORIA, Texas – The Iron Curtain fell two decades ago. Now EIDOLON Golf, the leader in custom-built wedges, is bringing down the “Wedge Curtain.” The company, which has sold its highly-regarded V-SOLE wedges to golfers in more than 30 countries, recently fulfilled its first order for a custom-builtÌâåÊset of wedges to a customer in Moscow, Russia.
“We’ve worked very hard the past few years to create an international market – mostly by word of mouth – for our technologically advanced wedges,” said Terry Koehler, President and Founder of EIDOLON Golf. “That our reputation has reached all the way to Moscow, Russia was surprising, but exciting to us.”
EIDOLON Golf continues to build a strong reputation for designing and crafting the finest wedges in golf. No other wedges on the market today can match the patented V-Sole wedges’ ball-stopping spin, extraordinary feel and versatile playability. And EIDOLON has established itself as the leader in custom built wedges by offering premium steel and graphite shafts in a range of flexes. The company also accommodates alterations to length, grip size and lie angles at no charge to the customer.
Koehler, a former director of marketing at the Ben Hogan Company and co-founder of Reid Lockhart Golf, founded EIDOLON Golf in 2002 and introduced the EIDOLON wedges with patented V-Sole Technology in 2003. Since then the company has steadily grown to become a leader in the custom wedge marketplace, at retail and through sales from its Web site, www.eidolongolf.com.
Koehler’s blog, www.TheWedgeGuy.com, has become one of the more popular golf blogs on the internet, as it is filled with practical advice and tips that lead to lower scores. He was written guest articles on the subject of wedges and has given presentations on the subject at industry gatherings. Koehler also has been a featured guest on Peter Kessler’s “Making The Turn” daily radio show on XM Radio.
EIDOLON V-Sole wedges provide shotmaking versatility not found in otherÌâåÊbrands. With EIDOLON Golf’s patented V-Sole Technology, the leading edge of the wedge’s sole – about one-quarter of an inch – has an aggressive bounce (15 degrees on the 48-degree pitching wedge, 18 degrees on the 52-degree gap wedge, 30 degrees on the 56-degree wedge, and 25 degrees on the 60-degree wedge) that ensures that the leading edge never digs into the turf. The primary rear portion of the sole features minimal bounce – three degrees on the 48 pitching wedge and 52 gap wedge, seven degrees on the 56 mid-wedge and six degrees on the 60 lob wedge – for improved playability from tight lies.
In addition to its patented V-Sole design, EIDOLON Golf painstakingly CNC-mills the face and every individual groove in each wedge, a revolutionary extra step that is a cut above most mass-produced wedges. This precision milling achieves nearly 100 percent of the groove specifications allowed by the USGA, as compared with as low as 60 to 70 percent of allowed groove volume common to standard production wedges.
