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.

    • Oh man. As you can see above, Manavian mocked me for not realizing they were getting the 130° from BOTH shoulders. Apparently, though, Manavian is also wrong, as Andy said I was lying when I cited what Manavian had written: The next thing Andy says that's both accurate and clearly stated will be the first. I replied to that post with something like: Tell Manavian who said "only counting the abduction/adduction of one shoulder rather than 2." One of the issues with “bad” information is that y’all can’t even get on the same page. You've not shown that Bryson has 130° range of motion in either shoulder separately P1 to P7. I’ve shown the numbers. You’ve name-called and just said “nuh uh” repeatedly. Did you see the AMG IG video? Of course you have. Wrapping your head around the distance the shoulder travels yet, Andy? Andy later commented to explain how he got his range of motion number (apologies to whoever @iacac and @icaca are on Instagram, who are going to be wondering just what in the hell they've gotten themselves into). Oh boy. Adding the numbers in one direction and then adding them again going back is not a "range" of motion. If I can bend my knees 140°, I don't claim to have 280° range of motion because I have two knees nor because I can also extend my knees 140° after bending them. Bryson (with a driver, again — I used his iron swing) abducts about 65° (and bends his elbow a ton) with the driver. Then he adducts 50… and then another 15°… to end up right back where he started. This is exactly the equivalent of saying that I bend my knees 140° and then straighten them, creating a range of 280°. It's so silly I don't even have much of a response. It falls down completely on its own. It doesn't need even a nudge.
    • Can't remember who but some wise guy said "Arms up, body around"..😉. Anywho, been working on pinning my lead arm less and less to my chest in the BS. Decent progress with the arms, need a lot of work and trust for the 'body around' part.
