Cutting conforming v grooves into (about to be non conforming) square grooves?

[zanga254]

I was wonder amid all the argument about the rule change in 2010 and people stocking up on wedges, can you just use a groove sharpener that sharpens current square grooves to create that same square groove in competition conforming wedges? In other words, can you sharpen square grooves into 2010 grooves?

Another question, if you can't do the first question, what wedge has the most spin. I know that this is a redundant question, but only answer this question if...
+You have tried the wedge
+You have tried the different wedges that you are comparing it to.
+You have adequate knowledge of how a wedge's groves work and how the wedge you pick is so special.

and please no coaching. Thanks

also, i know it is about volume and edge sharpness, not shape.

You can't change the currently allowed grooves into the new groove because the current grooves are already too large. There is no way to make them smaller with any "sharpening" tool.

By the same token, I seriously doubt that any groove tool would be aggressive enough to turn the 2010 groove into the current groove either. They aren't designed to actually cut away metal, just clean up and sharpen what is already there.

Are you asking which conforming wedge has the most spin?

no sir, you're question is not plausible. i'll tell you what though, my pro shop just received clevelands new cg15 wedges. my boss (head golf pro) and i headed out to the course to give em a try, and WOW. the laser milled face just give extra biting action that's great. honestly, these are great, i'd put them in my bag (but don't cause i'm wierd, i like brand consistency; damn my mind - could be minor o.c.d.) but you should take a look at em.

I meant taking 2010's ----> current max regulatons.

and the best wedge to buy before 2010, as in for Christmas.

also, does anyone believe this might do the job?

The clubs with the new grooves will have different markings and modifying them to a nonconforming state will make them nonconforming under the rules. Why not just by 2 or 3 new wedges now and cycle them as they wear out? Then you're legal until 2024 unless you decide to play in a very high level tournament.

I would love to do that, i really do. But i don't exactly have that kind of money.

Maybe i could scrape some together.
