  • I HAVE HAD THIS GOLF CLUB FOR ABOUT 8 WEEKS AND HAVE BEEN COLLECTING FOOTAGE OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE HITTING GOLF BALLS WITH IT. THIS GOLF CLUB IS PERFECT FOR HIGH HANDICAP PLAYERS AND MID HANDICAPPERS! THIS BALL CHECKS UP NEAR THE PIN ALMOST EVERY TIME EVEN IN WET CONDITIONS! THIS IS A SMITHWORKS WEDGE AND I HAVE THE 60 DEGREE WEDGE AND THE 52 DEGREE WEDGE.

    Hello! I’m Liam the Peoples Golfer. I started this UA-cam channel to improve your golf game and to bring golfers together in a community.
    My main focus is to create relatable and funny golf content while helping to improve the golf game of the average golfer! I also like to explore the Best Golf Courses around the world and Golf Courses Near Me!
    I want to help Lower Your Handicap by sharing Golf Tips that help to Fix Your Slice, Fix your Hook and hit Longer Golf Shots! My channel features PGA Pro Lessons on how to Strike Your Irons Better, How to hit Long Distance Irons, Approach Shots and how to Draw or Fade your Golf Shot to get it Closer To The Hole. The Golfing Legend OMP shares Expert Golf Advice on Course Management, Chipping Perfectly and getting More Spin without thinning or duffing the shot. Top Golf tips on Golf Club choice and Golf Shot type. I also share lessons on How to Putt Better and how to Improve Putting Accuracy.
    I like to keep my content Fun, Friendly and Informative. I will test Golf Clubs and Golf Training Aids that people are interested in and provide a real, honest and accurate review of their performance. For entertainment purposes I try out Golf Accessories and Golf Products and see if they can improve my performance or if they are in fact just a ‘Fad’.

      When square grooves were legal, I had a Sand Wedge with a copper insert that felt like sand paper. It would shred the cover off a Titleist like it was peeling an onion!! I would have pieces of the ball's cover stuck in the groves. You could stop the ball on a "dime"...but...you couldn't use the ball afterwards! I took it out of my bag after 1 round...it was costing me too much money in golf balls!

  • @tedzink4574
    @tedzink4574 4 роки тому +6

    Back in the day, scuffs like those were very common and if you thinned it, you had a cut in the middle of the ball. Just shows how spoiled we are now with the enhanced durability of golf balls.

    Some years ago, I had a set of Dynacraft Prophet Tour irons which had such sharp grooves they ruined balls immediately, to such an extent I had to get rid of them, although they were otherwise good clubs (and legal)

  • @KentnDebi

    My old wedges did that when I'd been at them with the Hymec Groove Tool.
    Awesome for short chips, great control with them...box grooves were awesome but Pros with their clubhead speed could hit it anywhere and get control out of the deepest rough with them.
    I saw Phil (micced up) talking to Sergio about how he got so much spin..."I don't back my grooves off Sergio, just leave them sharp"
    Doesn't matter to them Liam...they don't pay for their balls lol

    I once asked a ball Rat what a "reconditioned" ball was... 'a ball soaked in bleach", the White is paint, which is why the wedge strips it.
    I got "lace" after sharpening my 64 lob a few years back.
    You could do this to a Legal wedge if you spent time with a groove sharpening tool...

    That is the "extreme" version, which has not actually been submitted to the R&A/USGA for professional play. So that alone makes them illegal for sanctioned tournament play.
    Pretty obvious that the grooves are shear sided (too sharp) and very deep, so they will never meet the groove rule for wedges.
    Smithworks makes two other models, that are tournament legal and still produce a crap ton of spin, but have conforming Vee grooves that don't chew the cover off the ball.
