Wedges are clubs that golfers frequently use, and golfers will face various playing conditions with them that cause the groove edges to wear down over time. Shot friction created at impact from dirt or sand generates heat and can cause gradual groove wear. To get the best spin performance, every golfer should evaluate their wedges’ face conditions and groove wear after approximately 75 rounds of play to determine if it’ s time for new wedges and more“ zip.”
As always, check with your local golf course pro shop to discuss the benefits of each new wedge and how they might improve your game. They should have demo clubs for you to try outside on the range. Remember, there is never a replacement for hitting the ball outside, where you can actually see how the ball reacts off the club.
