I've changed the grind on my wedges several times with a disc grinder with a 4 inch disc, a sand paper flapper wheel, and a buffer.

They always looked and performed like I wanted when I was finished. I've been working with metal my whole life but I think anyone with a few tools and a little bit of skill and knowledge of what they wanted could do it. I would probably practice on an old club I didn't care about the first time.

only power tools I have is power drill. I would love to do it myself but I don't have any tools to work with.

I've never ground any wedges but you will probably want an angle grinder.  You can find a cheap one at Harbor Freight, Northern Tools or a Pawn Shop.  One can be had for less than $20.

    • Yes, because you have lifted to like 120° without bending the left elbow. So when you turn and the left elbow bends… it bends in such a way that you then lower your left humerus and pull the club around you.

    • Day 292 6-23 Worked on wrist arching for a bit today and then some low point control.
    • Day 3 (23 Jun 26) - Grandson put in to play this morning when he arrived at the house.  He wanted to play a full 18 from the "purple" tees (these are custom tees that play shorter than our gold but longer than the red) in a best (super) ball duet.  Was a great day working on course management - seeing him play well (for a 10yr old) - for example, hole 12 has a temp green about 100 yds from the tee box, he hits a solid 8i to 4' pin high and nails a birdie putt.  Could have never been prouder.  These are the moments grandfathers dream of - and hopefully the memories he will recall when his day comes to be Paw-paw for his grandson....may the game live on. 
    • Posted a couple swings here. I think my attempt to blend the movement still results in a more “around” back swing?
