Richie3Jack Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 I really like my Vokey SW. I used to be a Cleveland guy, but I don't think their grinds suit me as well. Problem with Vokey is it's not forged and I can mess around with the lie and loft too much. 3JACK Quote Author of Pro Golf Synopsis.

SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted March 6, 2010 SPY VIP Share Posted March 6, 2010 Right now I use the Burner gap 50* and sand 55* that match my set. I have found that I am much more consistent when they match. I can't tell you how much I want to buy tour wedges and I have. I had CG12 54/60 TM TP54/58, Cleveland 588 60*, Vokey 58*. I probably gamed the CG12s the most. Pure contact was amazing, but very infrequent. I look at CG14's all the time. I feel like they should be in my bag, but I know that they are likely too much. Instead, I may order the lob to match my set of burners, but right now, I am trying to learn how to open the face and hit lob distance with my 55*.

Matt Saternus Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I've been a Vokey guy since I started playing (with one TM thrown in for good measure, which I really liked). This year I think I'm going to take a swing at some Scratch wedges and see for myself how the grinds impact my game. I really appreciate the fact that Scratch is offering something at so many price points so that you can try something without spending a fortune and feeling married to it.

Richie3Jack Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 I live in Atlanta and I'm thinking of making the trip to Scratch's facility in Chattanooga as it's only 2 hours away. I'd like to try out their wedges. 3JACK Quote Author of Pro Golf Synopsis.

Jeeves Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Have found the most enjoyment out of my Scratch wedges. Certain degree of customization without dropping big dollars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wick013 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I have tried a lot of the custom wedges and I liked Scratch the best of those but don't think I have ever gotten the correct grind for me ... hence I have switched b/t my 2 favs over the years: Titleist and Cleveland. Currently play the new CG15s and like them a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krevo Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Although I've heard mixed reviews on the new Jaws wedge, I'm a big fan of Callaway's X-Forged wedges. The Mac Daddy grooves are the real deal as far as spin (and control) are concerned. How Roger Cleveland designed wedges could be left out of the discussion so far is mind-boggling. ^ this. I love my X forged MD set. (52, 56, 60) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo32 Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 This weekend I tired many different wedges. I Didn't like the Callaway Jaws simply cus it didn't feel right in my hands and the feel on the face wasn't the best. I did like the Scratch but I don' think the wedge I had was the correct grind for me but still a great club. Cleveland CG15 was mehh and so was the new Mizuno, nothing bad about them but nothing to write home about. When it came down to it I still loved my Vokeys which are still new to me since they only have 3 full rounds on them but about twice as much range time. Bottom line is wedges and putters are all personal prefrence and what looks best to you.

germany110 Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I think hands down its the vokeys. The way they look, feel, and everything is just ideal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamo Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I also like the Mizunos. I have a 60* MPR that is pretty good. I would get an xFT to replace it, but they just cost too much.

Steve-o Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 Everyone talks about their favorite wedge, but what is the true difference between the Vokeys, Cleveland and Mizuno wedges... other than feeling, im probably not tech savy enough to tell the difference. any thought. I am just an amateur golfer but have tried many wedges from low cost to high end and have found no wedge that compares to the Solus 4.1 and 7.1! These things produce so much spin even for a guy like me (and trust me my swing is not the best! LOL) you almost have to get used to the stopping power of these wedges! The Solus Wedge feels great due to the great balance they have also. I don't know about anyone else but my vote is for the affordable Solus Wedge with the old box grooves! Anyone else ever tried these wedges? Looks like you can enter to win a new set of the tour only wedges right here on Golf Spy but once again I am sticking with the box groove, why not? Don't think I will be making the PGA anytime soon! LOL, Steve-o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
