I have three grooveless wedges but I didn’t buy them that way. Time for replacements!!! Nice video as always

[Rexij]

How can they claim it doesn't lose spin when a simple test shows it loses half the spin....

[CosmicApe]

I don't see why someone would make this product. Their marketing is "you won't lose spin without grooves" which basically equates to "there's no difference between this wedge and another wedge". Okay, I'll just stick with traditional wedges then. If a company wants to come out with something like they need to prove why it's BETTER and not why it's just different.

I'm so glad you did that test. The grooveless irons and wedges have actually been a huge talking point in German golf forums for years, because the guy who makes them actually does advertise them quite heavily online. And the people who believe him and bought them don't want to admit that they are rubbish. So grooves or grooveless is almost a religious issue in certain golf forums. I would have expected the grooveless to perform a bit better off the mat, because there moisture and dirt should not interfere and the clubface can make clean contact with the ball. But the drop in spin was very noticeable there.

I dont even like golf but i've been binging your videos for like 2 days now

[michaelyoung]

Can you do an illegal club round of golf only so long driver this wedge some illegal Orion’s then play a round

[FriedEggsGolf]

I have the Thriller album on grooveless vinyl...

[gibbethoskins]

It's like selling bald tyres and claiming they work the same 🤦‍♂️

[metsrule]

Something about you cleaning off the club head with a towel in slow mo is hypnotizing and I want more of it.

[golfbag]

Rick I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos! I have struggled with hitting my irons fat for long time and I watched your video (stop hitting behind the ball). I have played three rounds since 88, 92, & 90. Before I was averaging high 90's. I working on get through your older videos and the instruction is so easy to understand and put into play on the course/range. Thank you for taking your time to help people enjoy the game a bit more with lower scores!

Back in the mid 1980's I played with a guy that never ever cleaned the grooves on his irons, the grass and dirt had turned into a very hard glaze like film. Every shot he hit with his irons flew higher and farther than the rest of ours did, of course he had no spin, but he was a master of his game and it worked for him.

[ryanthomason]

I would say, depending on the price of the groove less wedges, you can use it in the bunker shots to increase the lifespan of your regular clubs since the shot/friction is not impacted by the club face. I would use one for a sand wedge specifically.

“The guys who make this wedge ... have been smoking crack ...”

[landonstrader]

This is one of the coolest videos on YouTube. It’s so dope

[MoonShotMan]

I wonder if a rough sandpaper-like surface would create a lot of spin? Something really rough, like a crystaline surface.

[dwightschrute]

I'm loving all these tests of "gimmicky" clubs lately. Keep them coming!

[MrPanderific]

Really liked the faster pace of this video worked well with the music. Good job Rick, wedge is useless though 😂

[jaymacx]

I started playing golf around 6 months ago and began watching your videos around the same time. I gotta say rick, your videos really make me enjoy golf more. The sport is still new to me and thanks to great golf content on YouTube, I am now obsessed with golf lol. I’ve been playing once or twice a week for the last couple months and self teaching myself. I shot a 42 on the front of bethpage black today.

[matthewwebb]

Rick, awesome video man! I’m massively impressed with the quality of your videos lately. I’ve been a subscriber for a few years now and seeing how much you have progressed is mind blowing! Keep up the good work!
