I know this has been discussed here. But here is my situation. I have wedges that are nice, I like them, they are just getting worn and don't perform (spin) the way they once did. I have a groove tool but haven't used it much since I don't have a vice at my house. I was considering sending all my wedges off to get refinished and regrooved this winter instead of buying replacements. Has anyone done this and did they come back as good as new. Where did you go? I searched online and found them and I love the black chrome but I don't know anyone who used them. Any advice would be great. Here is the link:

I emailed them a few days ago asking about a quote for my ap1 and he said they cannot do them currently but in the soon future. I do like their work though from their site.

I'm just looking to get my 64 regrooved more than anything. It would be around 50 dollars so I might just be better off selling it and replacing.

Yeah I would, unless you want to customize your club.

Is that $50 including shipping? If so, it may not be a bad option. Replacing a club for me would mean a minimum of $10-12 to replace the grip on top of the club price, which is something to consider if yours grips are consistent throughout your set.

Yeah that is everything. That is refinished (black chrome is rediculous) and regrooved, shipped, taking the shaft on and off. I know used wedges don't go for that much on ebay even in good condition so by the time I sell the 64 for lets say 50 bucks, by another, pay for that to be shipped it is going to be net cost of around 60 or 70. If the refinished regrooved ones perform as well as new I'd just like to keep what I have and do that and get the custom wedge. Anything I buy (I"d probably replace it with a 64 or 62 degree vokey) wouldn't be any better or worse than what I have accept it will perform like it is new.

My 52 and 56 are in good shape, but the 60 is pretty worn from sand use. My shafts are matched with my irons, so I'd rather not replace the club. Maybe I'll see how mine turns out and let you know.

Yeah I'd love to know how it turns out and how it wears with use. The finish looks amazing but you know sometimes things look good then don't in a short period of time (Like a cheap paint job on a car)

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By billchao ·

      My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.

      Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.

      No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death.

      Spark League at Severna Park Golf

      By Paloma ·

      Looking to play in the Severna Park Golf league and it got rained out the first three weeks. I know the course is being renovated so it is not in great shape but the location is easy for me and I would love to meet some other golfers in my area. Anyone here in Maryland Annapolis area?

      I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.
