Has anyone sent off there wedges, or done it themselves, to have new grooves ground, ported, or have different angles ground?

If so, did you think it was worth doing?

thanks

i bought a spin milled wedge from a friend and it was already ported (2 ports) on the muscle. It was a 56, and its the only spinmilled 56 ive hit so i cant compare it to toher ones. In comparison to my old unported sand wedge it has a slightly lower trajectoy, but its nothing huge and it may also be due to the project x shaft in it. I didnt notice any huge difference in feel forgiveness or trajectory, but maybe its a difference that can be felt more by a better golfer. if it costs alot of money i wouldnt do it, just my experience.

    • 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. 
    • 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. 🙂
