Wedge Grinds and Initials

Great comment, Ed. As usual, you're right on!

In fact, almost all 'high-bounce' wedges have the same problem (at least for the 'creative' player who wants to 'open' the blade in tight lie situations).

To solve the problem, every PGA TOUR player I work with grinds the heel of his lob wedge (and sometimes his sand wedge, too). For Titleist players, Mr. Vokey often performs that service personally, just before he stamps their initials on the back of the blade!
