– The USGA has limited the amount of backspin allowed from wedges on the PGA Tour. This is being done by changing the grooves on wedges, limiting them and rounding them off.

As of December 31, 2010 manufacturers will only produce wedges with these new USGA-conforming grooves; however, anyone not playing on the professional Tour will be able to play with the non-conforming grooves currently being made until 2024.

It is time to stock up and get the current wedges with larger grooves before supplies run out!
