How often do you replace your wedge

[Golfchicago]

I bought a new wedge at the beginnig of the season. I recently lookde at my 60* and thought it looked fairly worned for a years use. Should I refinish it, I don't think so. Should I buy a new one? It seems nuts because I've only had it for a year. Does anyone kow how often a pro replaces his wedges?

I read somewhere that Tiger replaces his wedges every couple of months because he wears them out from practicing. So I guess Vijay probably wears them out ever other day from his practicing. My Cleveland CG10 52* wedge looks worn but man that thing still eats balls so the grooves are still good. I have had it for two full seasons and I thought I would have to replace it this winter, but I guess not.

As you know, I have the same sand wedge I've had since I was about 10 years old. The grooves are shot (need to regroove) but it will NEVER leave my bag. I can chip in from ANYWHERE....right?

Cardo, that r90 is still aces in my book.

i get new wedges every year, and i don't play/practice all that much... i had someone re-groove them for me one time, but there's nothing like the bite on brand new wedge... if i had to pay for them you better believe i'd keep a wedge for 2 maybe 3 seasons

Every tow or three years. By then the grooves are pretty wrecked. Recently changed my Cleveland 900s for Callaway Forged+ and the grooves are much sharper than the 900s which I had had for three and a half years.

When I lived in Phoenix I would replace my wedges just about every year because the ground has so many rocks and gravel under the fairways. Along with hitting about two buckets of balls everyday the groves just wear down faster there. The only other time I replaced a wedge sooner than that is when my grip was worn and slipped in to the lake. Imagine that slick grips had to fire that caddie. :) :cheesy: Thats when I was young and ebay wasn't around to sell that that stuff. Don't throw clubs anymore and my game has improved.

Whenever the grooves have too much wear or I find something which works better.

I like to start each year with shiny new wedges. My local shop takes trades so it's cheaper to do every spring. I'd say that there's 50% on the wedges when I trade em in.
