I ordered a couple of wedges from Scratch last week. I'm really looking forward to getting them. But I guess I'm looking from some feedback from owners to tell me I made a good choice. Sad, I know.

That's great to hear. Especially since I got two 1018's. If you love the 8620's, I can only expect better from the 1018's right?

You made a great choice. I have 3 Tour Department wedges (very similar to your 1018) and I really like them. Easily one of the best wedges that I've ever owned. I would never hesitate to put another set of Scratch wedges (or any Scratch clubs really) in my bag.

I've got a couple 1018 wedges and won't ever play anything else. The feel is unmatched, you'll love yours.

Thanks everyone for the response's. I am now more confident than ever that I made the right choice. I received an e-mail from Jon Eggland today, he said the clubs will be built this week, and hopefully shipped out by the end of the week. I can't wait to get these puppies in the bag!

can't see the pics? Went to their site last night and almost choked after I saw the $350 price tag for a custom wedge. Think I wil just find a mass produced one.

Trying to figure out how to attach them. Can you tell I'm not computer savvy? You don't have to go the "full custom" route. My wedges were 150 a piece. Not much more than you'd pay for a vokey, but much better quality imo and customer service is excellent.

Or, you can go 8629 for $100. No need to get a Tour Department wedge unless you really want one and if you do, the price is very resonable.

Nice...and those were how much? How did you decide what grind to go with? I spoke to a rep and he just said D/D for me? Thanks ahead for any information.

Thank's for the compliment. I looked at their site for awhile and decided that what they called a "digger/slider" was the type of game I play. So after a little more research on their site, I found what I thought would be best for me, and pulled the trigger. I went and played around with them at my local practice facility and all I can say is, WOW. I'm very happy with the quality of these clubs. I'm glad I pulled that trigger!

    • Yeah, negative PCC days are more likely to be counted in the best 8, but the PCC decreases the downward impact of these scores, as it increases your posted differential.  As for the conditions, it really is funny how the scores posted don't always reflect what seem like tough conditions.   Its clear that you thrive in difficult conditions.  
    • I guess someone decided to do more work for little benefit then.  I might be the lucky one then. I have a +3 and a +1 on my counted scores. 
    • I've only seen one positive PCC since it began, a +3 during a tournament on a tough, firm course with the wind blowing at least 30 mph. A scratch golfer got so frustrated he pulled out after 9. Sadly, the +3 did nothing for me as I was a good 10-12 strokes above the score counting. Currently 3 of my last 7 scores have a negative PCC. Of course, all 3 of those are in my best eight. I'm puzzled, as the wind was blowing pretty good on at least two of those rounds.  
    • It changed to the best 8 of the last 20, in the 2020 changes.  When I attended a Handicapping Workshop in 2020, we were told that they anticipated that the PCC would apply in about 10% of the rounds.  That's about what I see now, maybe slightly more often since the algorithm was tweaked not long ago.  And remember, the PCC will adjust MOST of the scores on a given day towards the mean.  With a positive PCC (more high scores), most players scores wouldn't be in the best 8/20 even with the PCC, so the impact is nothing, although the few players who had a good day will see the impact on their HI increased.   I believe it will be very rare that a player has even two scores in their best 8 with any kind of PCC.  
    • There was a PCC of +3 at Talamore the day I played in Pinehurst! Somehow that course was killing us all, lol.  If it is still the best 10 out of 20, So, it would amount to .1. It matters more if you end up with like 5 out of 10 of your counted differentials having PCC. That could equal a full stroke.  Yea, I think it will influence handicaps like 0 to let's say 2 for handicaps.
