| No golf isn't the same there. There are a lot of knockoff clubs that look the same, but rest assured they are not made in the same factory with different branding.
In terms of wedges, the difference between the look alikes and the real things are the grooves and the face. You can't tell just by looking at the grooves. You can tell by running your finger across the face if it is tacky enough to impart spin on a ball, but you can't tell how good the grooves are unless you have a really good eye or you have a microscope.
Grooves are all about how they hold up, how wide they are, and how well they channel away dirt and grass to get spin on the ball. The best brands do this the best. That's why they are so expensive.
Look for good brands on ebay. You can get a deal on Titleist spin milled vokeys and Taylor Made RAC TPs right now. About half off retail.
Also, always keep the grooves on your wedges clean of debris. Your ability to get through grass and debris comes from the grooves. If there is grass and debris in the grooves, you're SOL.
