Help identifying the grind on this Vokey wedge?


Curtis Atkinson

Recommended Posts

I picked this wedge up on FB as a stand in for my new set while I find the right club to fill out the bag. It's an older Vokey so doesn't have grind listed and as a newbie to the game (and especially equipment) I have no clue how to figure out what grind it is. Anybody care to help? Let me know if pictures from a different angle would be more advantageous.

Looks like a 2009 vokey.  At that time,  there were no specific grinds.

Yes, technically Vokey wedges from this period where not sold with a particular grind designation (i.e. F, S, L), but there were different grind/bounce options available. The wedge in your hand appears to be the first iteration of a "Spin Milled" wedge and has what would be known as a K grind today (or something similar at least) without the additional bounce.

I once had a similar wedge in 60-degree loft, but never really cared for it.

Yep!  I bought a 50, 56, 60 set in 2009, the year before the new groove rule went into effect.  I never had a good experience with them, so they ended up in the garage.  About 2 years ago I wife used our pro's Vokey and liked it.  I got out my set and she has been using them ever since.  She likes them.
