What is the cost of re-grooving verses buying the one you like?

Well I have a groove sharpener and it works ok, but it can never get the grooves as precise as they are from the manufacturer. There are going to be defects with a groove sharpener.

This is why tour players get new wedges every month (of course they play and practice hours on end daily)

Currently it's looking like it'll be a week or two and 40-50 bucks, without shipping, to get the wedge refinished. As opposed to about 100-110 for a new one.

How bad of a defect and is the sharpener expensive?

There is different types of sharpeners. Here you find the club medic which isn't rated very good and I've read that they just plain suck. But if you look on the right side it shows one with a screwdriver type handle that one would probably work the best. I figure we are all just hacks (no offense to anyone) so just sharpening grooves would probably be a heck of a lot cheaper in the long run compared to buying a new wedge every 6-12 months.

See golf doesn't begin on the 1st tee and doesn't end on the 18th green... its a life long journey.

I use a sharpener from groovesharpener.com. It's $20 or so on ebay. It worked pretty well the few times I used it on my Cleveland wedges. It's just a handheld thing so obviously it's not going to be anything a machine could produce. I don't know if I'll use it on the new Taylor Made RAC TP wedges or not.

Anybody hit the Bobby Jones wedges yet? If so, what'd you think?

I just got my new Vokey Tour wedges today, a 50 degree and a 56 degree. I can't wait for the weekend now. One thing was odd though. They came with different grips on them. One had rubber and the other had cord.

DENNIS: GOOD FOR YOU,Now straighten me out my pitching wedge is 45 dgr. sand wedge 55dgr so to complete the arsenal I'm going 52 and 58.
my golf buddies feel 60 is too hard to hit. what do you think. Every time I think I know what I want more infomation gets me thinking again. Sometimes thinking is dangerous when swinging.
