I recently came into a free set of Volkey SM9 wedges I won from the PGA Championship pool. I have the black, 50, 54 and 60, with the KBS shafts. Previously played the SM6 52, 56 and 60. The SM9s are the best wedges I have played. They are soft, easy to control. I can get them to stop on my courses hard, fast greens and get them to release when I need them to. These wedges have saved me a few strokes around the green side as I am chipping in 1 to 2 times a round. Anyone looking for wedges, I recommend these. I would go out and buy these now that I know how much different they are from other wedges.
