Bob Vokey is a true master craftsman that relies on both old fashioned hand skills and high tech R&D to design and develop the game's finest wedges. In developing new wedges Bob uses the Titleist R&D group to develop prototypes and shape masters via CAD/CAM (computer aided design and manufacturing). It is Bob's practice however to always put in the final touches on each wedge by hand at a bench with a toolmaker. To perfect the various sole grind and bounce configurations Bob uses the PGA Tour as his living laboratory along with the Titleist Performance Institute to conduct specific scientific research on spin and club-turf interaction.
