I like to experiment with new clubs every now and again, recently bought a couple of second hand drivers, tried them out and sold the one I didn’t like. Did the same with fairway woods.
I’m now looking at wedges. I bought a second hand 58 degree SM6 recent, which I like using when I need to get some height. However, I’ve been reading that wedge grooves start wearing out and that it’s best to buy new. I can’t warrant spending that much and so have been contemplating a budget brand, such as Ben sayers, which come in at £30-£40. I’m after a 50 & 54 degree.
What’s your view on budget wedges? Good enough to do the job? Is a new budget wedge better and give more spin than a worn premium wedge?
