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.

      I'm good with the bunkers, and the fairways are SUPER wide. Three yards should stop a ball that isn't landing in it from rolling into the hay.

      I'm a little behind, but I just finished listening to the episode about practicing while on vacation.  I have two vacations coming up this month that I won't be bringing golf clubs with me on, and this was perfectly timed (I'm sure I am not the only one going on vacation in June).   Especially the part about stretching.  I keep putting off adding stretching, with golf in mind, to my daily routine.  I think I'm going to use these upcoming vacations, the first of which I'm flying off to on Thursday, as a way to get into this habit.   For anyone else interested, Fit For Golf (see sidebar) has fantastic stretching routines (some of which, I think, are on their free area).  I really should get back to doing their main exercises too.  I don't have any affiliation with them beyond "satisfied customer," in case that sounds like an ad. I may end up posting in the 5 minutes thread when I do golf stretches if it's my only practice that day... as if I don't already sound like a broken mp3 with my 10-15 minutes hitting indoors part. And back to the topic:  anyone not caught up on the podcast should consider catching up and listen to that episode, especially if you're going on a non-golf vacation this summer and want some practice ideas that aren't the at-home practice routine from LSW about long bunker shots (which I am sure we all do regularly).
