I just picked up a 60* Vokey SM this weekend, and I can't wait to play around with it. It's one sexy club. But I've heard of the face showing wear after a relatively short amount of time. Has anyone else experienced this? Also, will Titleist refurbish?

I am also playing one. I think any wedge will wear fairly quick versus other irons. I think as long as you keep it clean it will be ok. I have ALOT of wear on my cleveland but it still will spin the ball fine.

A spin-milled Vokey won't wear very quickly. Just the "standard" amount which, yes, is more than you see in other non-wedge irons.

The oilcans are the ones that "wear" extra quickly, but it's on purpose for them.

I have a Spin Milled and the face can wear quickly if you use it as a specialist sand wedge as I do,stones in the bunkers can dent the milling in my experience.

    • I saw The Deuce as well. ... At least pictures of it.  Seems everyone is bringing out a mini-driver this year.  I actually had no intention of getting one, but the PXG salesperson tricked me. He said something to the effect of "Hey, you wanna try this mini-driver?" ... Sneaky bastard. 
    • Day 37: 1/16/2025 Really good practice today. Did a bunch of mirror work early in the AM; before anyone else in the house woke up. Basically working on this. Later, on lunch, I had time to swing by the range and work on it some more. Basically what I did was drag over one of the mirrors they have at the range; Do between 1 and 4 slow mo practice swings looking at the mirror focusing on improving the above. After the slow-mo swings I'd then hit a shot at regular speed. I rotated between the PW, 8 iron, 6 iron and 5 wood. Hitting one shot with each club, choosing the club at random. 👍😁👍
    • Good Luck!!  I saw today about Cobra getting in on it by “dropping a duece” 
    • I'd like to offer advice, but I'm not sure what you are asking. You made several statements, but none of them seem problematic.  Sounds like you like to keep your wrists loose when hitting a driver. You like to hit your 7 iron. Somebody said your swing is fast. Are you asking for help in clarifying what Hogan said?  I'm not trying to be jerk-like. I am not sure what you want advice on.
