Back in 1975 a golf buddy noticed I didn't have a sand wedge, just tried to use a PW and open the blade. B J gave me a sand wedge he used and after a few times getting out of a sand trap with the proper wedge, I said thanks and have used it ever since. It was very worn, still worked, but just worn out.
Looking on eBay recently I came across another Ben Hogan Special sand iron. The single pic looked amazing, it seemed to be unused. I received it Saturday and couldn't believe the great condition. I contacted the seller and he said he bought it in 1974 with a number of other wedges and sand wedges. He never used it and decided to put it up for sale. I'm over the moon about replacing my severly worn Hogan sand iron with this pristine one.
Used it twice today and both sand shots ended up inside 6 ft. I'm still smiling. :bananadance:
