BIG STU 7,159 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Yeah, and I was told the $350 price is for a wedge that is indeed hand ground by Mr. White. Not sure if the price goes down for a Jeff McCoy wedge, but he's certainly no slouch and got them where they are today...I am assuming that is what the JDM on the back of the Scratch 60* I acquired the other week means. I am not really familuar with them per say. The wedge is marked on the back JDM/EGG. I paid a pricely sum for it $2.99 at a local Goodwill no joke. I absolutely love that thing especially the sole grind. I had to weight it up for me with lead tape but it has really peformed for me Quote Driver Homna G1- X Stock Homna Regular shaft 4 wood Adams Tight Lies 5 wood Adams Tight Lies 24* Hybrid Adams A 10-OS Pro Launch Red R Irons 5 thru PW 1980 Macgregor VIP Hogan Apex #2 shafts SW- Wilson Staff JP II 56* shaft unknown Putter 1997 Santa Fe rusty as heck Link to post Share on other sites

MmmmmmBuddy 1,263 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Thanks can you elaborate about the EGG all I know it is an awesome wedge I know that the grind was designed and named for a buddy of mine who used to work for Scratch. Ari and Jeff both lived out here when they started the company. You would be amazed by how many Scratch wedges turn up in bags around here. As far as the specifics of the grind and the performance features, I would refer you to the link in the post above. It knows more than me.

RookieBlue7 1,677 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 The JDM/EGG is one of the first releases of Scratch wedges. All of their original run of wedges, in all grinds, had JDM/(grind name here) on them. They're non-conforming, btw. That was back when they were first starting and the JDM was put on there, basically, as a descriptor for them letting the world know that they were japanese forgings.

BIG STU 7,159 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Thanks Rookie you answered a couple of questions for me. first off on the Japanese forging. Second about being conforming I figgured it was not I did check on the USGA website and it seemed inconclusive to me. But after playing it I sorta figgured it out It will really checks up good out of the trap oh well.

I wish that were the case, or, if done, at least notice or a quiet discussion could be conducted. Unfortunately it was not the case in this instance. I had a disagreement about the Scratch controversy with three fanboys on this board, most focused upon the ability of one grinder's ability to produce sufficient volume for the companies sales. That conversation was deleted and no notice was given. If I am to be condemned, I would very much like to be informed. Shambles Quote Link to post Share on other sites
