I have had my 60* wedge for three years, and the grooves are looking quite worn. My wedges get more wear and tear than most of my irons, because they are used more. I practice with them, chipping around in the yard, etc.

I'm wondering if the fact that they look worn necessarily means they are not performing up to snuff. Or, if this really isn't a big issue and they perform as well as new wedges. I know people who swear by their ancient rusted wedges, and claim that the rust gives them better bite.


How about re-cutting the grooves? Do many people try this?

I have had my 60º for about the same legnth of time, and I will be replacing after this season. If you practice with them alot, they loose the amount of spin they create on the ball. The pros are so aware of this, they change wedges three to five times a year.

Is there any way to really tell if you wedges are worn just by looking at them.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?

      Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
