Since we are on a 2nd lockdown, I was going to experiment with grinding some of the bounce on my wedges. Is there a grinder anyone of you experts have used and recommend? Mahalo in advance!

Best grinders in the industry are here at The Golfworks, in my biased opinion. Maybe I should say we have as good as anyone in the industry. I know there are skilled folks out there that know how to grind. The one thing to keep in mind, if the wedges are carbon steel and chromed, they will have to be re-chromed or they will rust. That may or may not matter to you. Also, if you want much material removed to reshape the sole angle, the head will be lighter. You can add weight back with lead tape, but you will loose some weight. If your experimenting, best to start with a stainless wedge or one that is not plated. Also, if you are mailing it in, if we were to do the grinding, would need details as to how you wanted the sole modified. More bounce, less bounce, leading edge, trailing edge, relieved heel grind, sole radius, etc. etc..

Thanks Britt! It has been a few years but I used to grind my old time wedges. They were all raw so it was easy and I used lead tape to balance the weight and couple of times reshaft and add weight in the head.
Is there a particular model that you recommend.
