Heres what we did ....custom grinded sand wedge sole to the exact requirements of the pro.

the one on the left has the sole shaved to achieve better grounding and the ability to cut through tight lies.

heres a closer look

we are currently doing it for some pros and some customers...once we bring in the 1 inch grinder and tooling parts for a high speed hand grinder, we can extend this service on a wider scale.

the pro was there the whole time and until he was satisfied with the way the club sat open and square at address, did we start to polish the sole.

all within the hour ....

based on the pro's preference..
i'd bring my wedges for that customised grind.. buy a heavy head and grind it down.. Twisted Evil

now i can buy any bounce head i want and worry about the grind later.

Nice to have this kind of service in this part of the world. I was fortunate enough to see how DGmna did these wedges. Personally, I don't mind how it looks like as long as the grind does its job. However it is still nice to get such a nice finishing...
