I just saw another thread that got me thinking about this, and the question is pretty straightforward. We all presumably know that in 2010, players in elite professional and amateur competitions will be forced to go to the old V-grooves in any club with 25* of loft or less. For us hackers, so long as the club was manufactured before 2010, we can keep playing the old grooves, even for handicap purposes (someone please correct me if I'm wrong).
So even though you might not be required to, I'm wondering how many other golfers will be going to the new grooves to comply with the rule. I am definitely going to. I would eventually like to play in amateur competitions, like my county am, but even aside from that, the purist in me wants to play what the big boys are playing. I don't want to feel like I'm getting pity because I'm a 14 handicap.
So what are your thoughts on this, and what will you be doing?
*edit: I selected "I'll be updating my wedges," as my MP-32's already conform.
