I have a fitter that I have been talking to about making me a custom set of miura's... I dont really need them... but they are too nice to pass up. Anyway... they only come in a raw finish.

Does anyone know where I can send them to have them finished (black pearl, copper, nickel, anything)? I hate having a wedge rust... especially ones like this.

I've seen some good work done by this company:

Thanks... it looks like they do Nickel and Copper plating as well... just what I was looking for.

You can also look online at GolfWorks and GolfSmith. They do refinishing and I've used them in the past with good results.

Rust is the best way to go. Chrome is blinding and I did not discover this flaw in the finish until after purchasing two chrome finished wedges last summer. I have a CG12 Mirror chrome and it can cause quite the bad headache when looked at wrong. I've since taken steel wool to dull the effect of the glare but black pearl and oil can are by far the best finishes

They offer some cool services and their black-fog treatment is awesome (albeit a little pricey).

I'm with you. I've never understood the idea of rusty wedges. I want my clubs to look nice and new even after years of use - however I always stop short of club head covers for my irons...

Looks to me like you swinging a club. Got any pictures of your refinish anywhere else?

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
