I bag four wedges - 46, 50, 54, 60 (Cleveland RTX 2.0 CB). I love them and they play well for me. Because I'm a tinkerer, I've been thinking about trying Hopkins wedges and "custom grinds". Question - are there any players who have had any experience with Hopkins and how does one determines what "custom grind" they need or desire? Unsure how one would determine there "custom grind" requirement being that it is an internet purchase etc. In other words, I don't know what I don't know! Any comments are appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Here's a link to what you can, and cannot order.     https://hopkinsgolf.com/page/support

Personally I couldn't find which shafts are available, and they recommend grinds for your region, mostly. I suppose with their money back guaranty, you can't go wrong. I just don't know of many tour players who use their products, other than Vjay S.

According to the Hopkins web site, the wedges (and irons) are now available from 27 retail shops. Most of the shops are located on the East Coast, West Coast or in Texas.

Hopkins had one part-time rep for the St. Louis area, but I'm not sure how systematic the product rep network is.

Gillum , like many other golfers you would like to "try before you buy," even with a money-back guarantee.

The Hopkins web site lists the shafts, but not the specs. For a couple of custom shafts not carried in component catalogs, you're guessing what the profile is.

Focus, connect and follow through!
