I might be buying a new sand wedge next year. I like my titleist vokey, but it is getting worn. Wondering if I should upgrade to spin milled vokey or go with the new srixon wedges. The both have the mill grooved face and nickel finish, and i've heard a lot of good things about the srixons from people I know that have them so I can't decide. Any opinions?

I cant coment on srixons but vokeys are quality products, they amnt of R&D; that goes into Vokeys is probably way more than a smaller company like srixon.

You do know that Srixon really isn't a small company. Hell, they bought Cleveland. So now their wedges are made with stuff from Cleveland designs as well.

When looking for new wedges, I hit the WG-504's and they felt great, and spun quite a bit. I went with the Vokeys because I liked the feel and control a little bit better. But the Srixon wedges, like the rest of their stuff, is quality.

Here's what I play:

Titleist 907 D2 10.5* UST ProForce V2 76-S | Titleist 906F4 18.5* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist 585H 21* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist ZB 4-PW TTDG S300 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 54.10 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.08 | Scotty Cameron Red X5 33" |

Yea I hear the new srixon hybris are solid as well. I didn't like thier irons as much as mizunos, but they were ok when I hit a few. I never see anyone with thier drivers though. The only issue is that it is hard to find the srixon wedges other than getting one on ebay. My pro shop, dicks, and TGW don't carry them.

I actually carry a srixon wedge. It sets up super clean at address and is forged, so feels great. It has a smaller head than most wedges I see, which really fits my eye. Certainly doesn't spin as much as other wedges in my bag, but its an older model. I'm not familiar with the newer srixon wedges, but if they're anything like mine, they're a solid product. Biggest selling point for me is the way the wedge looks at address.

Cleveland Hi-bore 9.5* stiff, Taylormade Burner T3 14.5* stiff, Mizuno mp 32 3-PW, Nike SV Tour Black Satin 52, 56, 60* wedges, Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 35 inches
In the market for a new driver, then my bag will be the shiz.

Yea this new wedge they came out with has a similar face to a vokey spin milled, with the small circular millings throughout the face, so it probably produces more spin than the old model. I wish I could demo one somewhere.

I was looking at the vokey,srixon and the the taylor made tp the day i bought mine,i discarded the vokey and was caught between the srixon and the t.m,i thought the srixon was a lovely wedge but i went with the t.m as i couldn't see much of a difference and the t.m was $20 cheaper which influenced my decision.

aeroburner tp 10.5 stiff
superfast tp 2.0 3 wood stiff
Halo 25 and taylormade tp 19 degree hybrids
miura cb 202 and wedge
tp 52* wedge, tp 56* taylormade spider mallet putter

      I have an update… I don't have much of a response, because the fact that they would ADD the numbers for the lead and trail shoulder together… I mean, wow. I was giving them too much credit. Nobody would think to assume they were doing THAT. That's beyond comical. One of the biomechanists I talked to put it this way: "So if I squatted down and went from 180 to 90 deg knee angle, then I would say 180 deg range of motion because I have two knees?" I'd type more (maybe), but honestly, I'm laughing a bit too hard. 🤣 Update: Mini Manavian blocked me on Instagram, so I cannot see his post showing Bryson with about 50° of range of motion (with a driver) from P4 to P7, and 75° only if you go out to the mid-follow-through. What a terrible loss for me. 😉

      Thanks, interesting to read. The swing is definitely very timing dependent. I hit it consistently I guess but consistently bad.

      Struggling With Volatility

      I've shot 91-74 on the same day before. Couple of years ago played a two round tournament on Bethpage Black. I shot 72 in the first round and 90 in the second. First round I played very well. Second round I played okay, but had about 5 shots that hit the lips of bunkers and bounced down into them. A couple of those wound up in footprints - I was unamused - and I failed to get them out. Anyway - lots of bunkers and my bunker play isn't great and then add a couple of footprints and me getting pretty tired and it added up to a lot.  Only you can really tell though what's causing the variance. It might be that your swing is very timing dependent and when it's timed well you play well and when it's not then it goes all over the place. In that case, some lessons and working on your swing could be the key. If it's more that you tend to feel like you hit it fairly consistently, but you have days where the shots come off and days where they don't, then that's more likely a course management issue. If that's what you need to work on, then you could read Lowest Score Wins and build a plan of attack based on that.  Rest assured though that a pretty big range from high to low is fairly common. Even PGA Tour players often have 18-20 shot spreads from best to worst rounds in a season. It's a common affliction among golfers.
