Yea, I remember correctly my Hopkins wedges didn't start rusting until July/August when the humidity really kicked in. It's crazy, but I want to hoard like 12 of these for future use.

I have a few extras still ha. I had my set of 3 but I walked into a PGA superstore and they had a ton of different grinds in the used section for 45 bucks a piece that looked like they were never hit. Mainly what I have now is duplicates of the grinds and lofts I already have. Soon I would like to start messing with some different shafts in them as well.

No kidding, thats insanse, makes sense now why he has 32 of them
With the confidence I have with my 54/10 S & 58/8 M I am really looking at adding the 50*. Problem is it comes in F grind and really want an S grind 50*. Would you guys think getting a 54 & bending it to a 50 be too much bending?

That's what I thought, but wanted to ask the experts. Looks like I'll see if a F grind will work.

exactly what I thought. I would be laying up on each hole to that yardage to get my money's worth out of it :act-up:

And they suggest you get new wedges every 60-70 rounds.

Hoping I can get a little more out of them than that, but with as often as I use them in pratice it might be close to correct.
Finally got out and hit my SM5 56 F grind yesterday and I love it. It was like butter on the ball. Hit about 25 balls. Gonna use it for most chips/shots under 100 yds tomorrow to really get a feel. Very impressed on my first go around.
I can already see some wear after my range session but let you know as I go. Will take pics.

Hi.
my 57 has wore the black off the sole and slightly off the face. Appears that its got a couple small spots of rust trying to form. I'll try and get a picture of it tonight when i get home.

Hi.
