WEDGE BUYING GUIDE
Using the right wedges has a big impact on your performance. Fit your wedges to your swing type, style, & course conditions.
Consider your Loft, Bounce, and Grind Options
SM8 wedges feature the most complete lineup of loft, bounce, and grind combinations. Vokey wedges are labeled with loft first, followed by effective bounce and grind. All SM8 wedges are available in both right hand and left hand and all finishes.
Proper wedge fitting starts with precise loft, bounce, and grind.
Fit Your Loft
Partial wedge shots are difficult to control even for the best players in the world. Most players benefit from carrying four wedges, which leads to tighter distance gaps and more full swings. Vokey recommends 4° - 6° of loft separation between your wedges, resulting in 10-15 yards.
