![]() ![]() The TaylorMade Hi-Toe 3 wedges were designed to be the most versatile and imagination-inspiring wedges TaylorMade has ever released. We hope you’ll consider them for your upcoming golfing season. ![]() It’s pretty clear that Titleist and Bob Vokey have dedicated an immense amount of time, dedication, and respect to bringing players the best wedges on the market currently. The revamped “ Spin Milled grooves” begin with a new cutting process that increases spin and durability and also features “Micro-grooves” between the grooves to create maximum spin control on partial as well as full shots. Each SM9 features a progressive center of gravity throughout the lofts, but the technical “sand wedges” (54°/56°) have a mid-center of gravity (CG) that promotes lower and more controllable sand wedge launch and ball flight conditions. The updated SM9 wedge line features updated wedge technology designed to improve performance from the previous SM8 wedge generation. If you’re unable to attend a Titleist club fitting event to get recommendations in person, Vokey has developed a “Wedge Selector Tool” on their website you can check out here, or additionally they’ve recently launched a Vokey wedge fitting app to give players personalized suggestions from anywhere. Now while that might look like an overwhelming amount of options for personalizing the feel and performance of your sand wedge, Titleist and the team at Vokey have developed multiple ways to determine what is the best fit for you. The increased bounce allows for increased forgiveness and less fat or thinned shots. Lastly, the highest bounce “ D Grind” option was designed for players with a steep angle of attack. The “ K Grind” is the highest bounce wedge in the lineup and is particularly designed to help players get height in softer sand and turf conditions. The “ F Grind” is the most played sand wedge grind on Tour and was designed for every square face shot. The “S Grind” is best for neutral to firm course conditions and works well for players who prefer square-faced shots with simple technique. The “M Grind” is the most versatile grind Vokey offers and includes heel, toe, and trailing edge relief for enhanced playability on neutral turf conditions. These sole grinds on the Vokey include the “L Grind,” the “M Grind,” the “S Grind,” the “F Grind,” the “ K Grind,” and the “D Grind.” The “L Grind” has the lowest bounce and is only offered in a 60 degree wedge, designed for extremely firm turf. ![]() Each sole grind corresponds to a specific “bounce angle” (the angle created between the sole and leading edge) designed to give players more consistency and accuracy. Bob Vokey has spent multiple decades perfecting his six tour-proven sole grinds to accommodate any type, of course, conditions a player may face and the specific type of swing that player may have (Steep, Shallow, Neutral, etc.). In the simplest terms, a “ Sole Grind” relates to how the “sole” of a wedge (the part of the club that actually lays on the ground) is manipulated to perfect how the club interacts with the turf. The Titleist Vokey SM9s had to find the top spot on our list because no other wedge manufacturer prides themselves on having a sole grind option that will fit every type of player perfectly. Titleist/Vokey has immense dedication to fitting players into the best equipment for their swing. Vokey continually innovates and tweaks Sole Grind options generation after generation. We believe both professional and amateur players love the Spin Milled wedge series for a few reasons 1. Since their initial launch in 1997, Bob Vokeys Spin Milled wedges have been the leading wedges sold at retail marketplaces, and since 2004 they’ve been the most played wedges on the PGA Tour with the Titleist Vokey SM9being the best sand wedge in the market right now. ![]() Titleist’s Vokey Design “Spin Milled” wedge line has been at the forefront of creating many of the best and most advanced sand wedges in the game for over 25 years. ![]()
