Just got a Vokey wedge set, Spin Milled 52, 56, 60 degree. What is everyone's thoughts on these? Switched from Cleveland. Thought I would give them a try.

They're good wedges bud. I had them but I switched to Nike VR Forged now and I love them. Don't worry though Vokey wedges are top notch! Good luck!

Just got my 51 and 56 as well.  They seem thicker than other wedges I've played, but I wouldn't say it's a bad thing.

I have 4 of em (swapped out my PW from my set) 48* (bent to 47*), 52*, 56*, and 60*.

I absolutely love them. I have so much confidence with one of them in my hands. Vokey + Premium ball = scary spin. Really soft feel too, plays much like a forged club (try to bend them, I dare you....its so easy).

Waiting out the 2 feet of snow that just dropped on the course....

I switched from Clevand to the same loft setup you have. I love them. I feel they are a bit heavier and my ball flight is a bit lower and about 7 yards further with each one.

I bought the 52.08, 56.10, and 60.12 Vokey wedges when they were first intoduced.  I loved them.  I absolutely wore them out but that took several years!  I have never played with a wedge long enough to wear the chrome from the sole and wear away the grooves on the face.  At different time intervals, I replaced each wedge with the exact same loft and bounce.  My 52 and 60 are polished chrome because I purchased them just before the dull finished, spin milled wedges came out.  The chrome is about worn away from the sole of my 60.  If it makes me mad, I'll replace it with the new spin milled 60.  My 56 is spin milled and the non glare finish is much easier to use.  You can tell, I love Vokey Wedges and I will not change!  You made a good decision and you will enjoy them for many years to come.

the chew up balls so fast its a joke.  Even when though mine is over a year old it will still destroy a ProV1 with ease.  They feel good sure, but if I ever hit a low spinner, the ball is gone.

Are the Vokey C-C wedges any easier on balls?

Only time the C-C's will give you any less spin is out of the rough. Either way, I think it's more the face than the grooves that tear the balls (which is mostly an issue with ProV's than any other ball...go figure)

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf. 
    • They've been chuckling since they hooked the shark. I think Greg doesn't realize the jokes on him.
