This is going to sound crazy but I kind of feel bad for Mr Vokey. He created the best wedge in the game. Used by players on tour and on municipal courses. If you want to look like a “player” a Vokey wedge is a must. Every two years Titleist comes to his door telling him they need some new wedges to market so they dont get stagnant. Then Vokey has to somehow make the perfect wedge better. Thats got to be difficult.
Im going to be 100% honest with you, I am finding it very hard to write about these wedges. They adjusted the weighting a little bit. Thats pretty much it. They kept all the same grind and loft combinations. This isnt a bad thing. Vokey wedges are already the gold standard. If Vokey messed with the wedges too much the players on Tour would murder him. Adjust the weight a little, keep the grinds the same, why change up a great thing?
If you need new wedges youll be hard pressed to find anything better than the SM9. I havent hit them so I could totally be lying but Mr Vokey hasnt disappointed us in a while.
