Titleist introduces new lineup of Vokey WedgeWorks grinds
Vokey WedgeWorks has today introduced its new lineup of lob wedges.
In addition to Vokey SM11’s six in-line grinds and industry-leading number of loft, bounce and grind configurations (27), golfers now have access to five additional lob wedge grinds: L, A, K*, A+ and V. The 62M joins WedgeWorks as well for players seeking more loft.
Each new WedgeWorks lob wedge is offered in the tour-favorite Raw finish. WedgeWorks SureFit fitting heads are also available at select Titleist fitting locations, allowing more golfers to test the full array of Vokey sole grinds.
“Having more grind options just gives us more tools to work with, whether it’s with tour players or dedicated amateurs. When a player gets their hands on the right grind, everything seems to click into place. The WedgeWorks lineup gives us the chance to find that optimal fit across even more playing styles and delivery patterns.” – Vokey Tour Rep Aaron Dill
L Grind
The L is a narrow-soled, low-bounce grind with heel, toe and trailing edge relief. Its sole width fits between the slightly narrower T Grind and the slightly wider M Grind. It is well-suited for golfers playing off firm to neutral turf conditions.
- Effective bounce: Low/4 degrees
A Grind
The A Grind originated from conversations between Aaron Dill and Geoff Ogilvy, who was looking for a wedge that would perform well on the firm conditions commonly found in Australia. Dill approached Ogilvy’s request by modifying his L Grind, smoothing out the ribbon, or grind lines, to create the A Grind. This resulted in a sole that moves through the turf with very little resistance, ideal for the player looking to slide the wedge under the ball in firm, tight conditions.
- Effective bounce: Low/4 degrees
K* Grind
One of the most popular lob wedge grinds on the PGA Tour, the K* features a low-bounce sole that originates from the .06K Grind. Instead of the full, smooth sole of the K, the K* features a steeper pre-wear on the leading edge as well as heel, toe and trailing edge relief.
- Effective bounce: Low/6 degrees
A+ Grind
The A+ Grind is a mid-bounce wedge that originated from removing the grind lines from an M Grind — the same modification that turns an L Grind into an A. Because of this, the A+ moves faster through the turf than its related M Grind, but it features more bounce and a wider sole than the A. This helps the A+ Grind excel in firm to neutral conditions.
- Effective bounce: Mid/8 degrees
V Grind
The V Grind is a mid-to-high-bounce wedge that features a forward section of increased bounce for forgiveness on square-faced shots along with heel, toe and trailing edge relief for enhanced versatility on open-faced shots. It excels in neutral to soft conditions.
- Effective bounce: Mid–high/10 degrees
62M Grind
All six tour-proven offerings are available now on Vokey.com and are priced at $229 each.
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.
“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.
