    Raw wedges are made for better players to grind them to their exact grind specifications without making them look like they have had the finish removed in those areas. Most golfers are not good enough with wedges to get any benefit from a custom grind wedge so just going with the S or D or K or F grind is going to be perfect for most. People see tour players hit a rusty wedge with a lot of spin on the ball so they think it’s because of the rusty wedge but it is just because they know how to add spin on a wedge shot.

    Things youve probably changed in the 3 years since, but, back in my pro days wed have spent $10-15 for a hooked knife as it makes the grip a lot easier to get off. We would then put Varsal on the tape thats left over and then light it on fire, burn it, and then it just peels right off super easy and clean. We'd leave extra tape at the end of the club to fold it over and in to keep dirt, rain etc. out of the shaft. Nothing worse than something rattling around in your club, or for it get all rusted on the inside, because someone forgot to put some extra tape there. Other than that nice work on the restore.

    Rick Sheils did a test a while back proving that rust on a golf club actually made the spin it has on a ball worse. He has done the right thing by restoring the wedge to a higher performing state.

    The grip removal had me cringing!! Get a hook blade for that knife man, and pull it toward you. It didn't have to be that hard. Also, 30 seconds with a heat gun will allow you to strip off the old tape with no problem. Fortunately this is a steel shaft; do that trick with the knife with graphite and you will destory it.

      You can use fine steel wool, most household versions might scratch the golf club. A light buff with fine steel wool should remove any rust and retain the club face.
