Cavemangolfer Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 I was wondering where I could get my wedges ported or how to do it. If you have any info I would be glad to hear it. Thanks :smile2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobo Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 "Porting a wedge", is when you take weight out of the wedge, by drilling holes in the back of it. It is primarily done to lower the ball flight. I had it done to a Cleveland 588 60 deg. wedge by Nomad Golf Works. I also had it refinished and the grooves machine cut. I turned out killer. The ball flight was lower, and the feel was so much better! Check'em out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is really great when you put work into a club and it works out well! :cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corky3 Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 Titleist sold a line of 'signature' wedges back in the day.... some of these were already ported. I tried doing a 588 myself...... it worked, but several drill bits later I had produced not the prettiest example :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
