I was dreaming of this club for so long.. I wanted a 52 degree, Vokey Oil Can spin milled wedge.. Well as we know they don't make a 52 degree, So I thought about getting a 54 degree and having it made into a 52.

I went to my local pro shop and after doing some research online and talking to so many people, they all told me to take a 56 degree 10 bounce and bring it to a 53 degree, that between a 52 and 53 degree you won't notice any real difference and the bounce will go from a 10 to a 7, which would be really good.

So I have the head of the club sitting in a salt water cup right now, I hit it a couple times on the computer machine and it feels great, tomorrow I will see how it really performs...


Thoughts??



** EDIT, should I rust this up, or just let it rust by itself?

its up to you, rusted wedges supposedly produce more spin, but the oil can finish looks nice. Personally i would keep the nice looking oil can finish and let it rust on its own, but it's up to you.

Little Hint: Cup of Coca-Cola would work much better rusting it than salt water.

As nykfan4life has said you have to get the oil off before it will naturally or artificially. Coke or Vinegar (light acids) should work, and then the salt water acts as a catalyst for the rusting process.

    • Feel like you are left side dominant. Keep the back of your glove running through impact. Keeps leading edge down without digging. You will pick them clean with some zip if the grass is nice and generally acceptable results off anything less than ideal. Works with both hingy or dead hand pitches and chips.
    • Day 52 (30 Apr 26) - Had planned a solo round, got invited to be part of trio that included a fmr mini tour pro.  Was fun playing back a set of tees and having to stay in my game plan. Both were very engaging and encouraging in the round.  A good day in working through and making smarter shot choices. 
    • Day 576 - 2026-04-30 Put my playlist on and slowed down a little as things were meh. Mostly got to an exaggerated P6 and hit from there.
    • I mean, a golfer is trespassing and damaging property. So, golf rules don’t supersede state laws. 😉 Like, if it isn’t marked and is off golf property. The right thing to do is take an unplayable lie or take stroke and distance.  Also, this is a liability for the course. The homeowner could easily say the course is liable for damage done because they knowingly didn't mark their boundaries which allowed golfers to trespass and damage property. 
    • Interestingly enough, if the course (the Committee in Rules terms) doesn't mark the boundaries, there is nothing out of bounds.  I realize that neighboring homeowners would take a dim view of golfers whacking balls from their backyards, but that's what the Definition of Out of Bounds requires. "All areas outside the boundary edge of the course as defined by the Committee."
