This is a well worn wedge

[BuckeyeNut]

The last shot was a green in regulation..............kid you not!      The head flew off..........the ball landed on the green 10' from the hole.

Lots of faithful service, down to it's last shot, which hopefully resulted in a birdie to honour the death of Mr. Wedge

That wedge had character.............for sure!!!!!   

I probably carried it in my bag for longer than I should have to be for sure.  That wedge was probably 6-8yrs old.....................it saw a lot of action.    Wedges need to be replaced much more frequently.

Didn't this happen to you before?

I am still using a wedge that has been in my bag for well over 10 years. Even though the circle area of ball striking, on the face is visible, all I have ever done is kept it clean,  and changed the grip as needed.  

Is that rust where the shaft snapped of at the hosel?

Looks like it has been hit out of the sand a few times.

My 56° Cleveland has been in my bag for at least 6 years and I have no intention of replacing it in the foreseeable future.

I don't see why you would say that they have to be replaced that often.  For me a wedge is much like a putter - when I find one I like, I stay with it.  But then I don't replace any of my clubs as often as many players do.

Re-shaft her! Don't throw her out 'cause she gave her all!
