My mizuno is nice but if I wanted more bite would the voke or the cleveland be my best bet?

Or another brand??

Thanks.

Take a look at the CG14 as well. Both other options will provide more bite. Some people say Vokeys are a little more difficult to hit, but I have not found that to be the case. In the end of the day its all about what looks good to you when you look down at the club and how much confidence that gives you. Good luck.

I was rockin a cleve CG12 60* and then got a Vokey 588 and like the Vockey much better. I found it much easier to hit. As far as bite goes...the vockey wil eat a range ball to death. I spent a couple hours at the pitching range the other day and was cleaning the grooves everyother ball. The would fille up with white plastic that fast. I pretty much know if I break it out I'm retiring that ball.

Vokey Spin Milled Hands down. Vokeys just flight and work the ball better around the greens, and on approaches. Better to look at I think.

Both are great wedges.

I replaced my Vokey's with Cleveland CG12's and have been happy with the change. The Clevelands are a little more consistent for me, but the Vokey definitely felt softer. For me, consistent wins. But as always, YMMV.

Truthfully, it doesn't matter what kind of wedge you play, you'll get plenty of spin. I don't play those wedges and I still shear my covers off and I play noodles! What you gotta pay attention to is a sole grind that suits your swing the best. Yes, bigger grooves will help you get a cleaner strike, but you still gotta hit it the right way. Just gotta get onto the turf and try them. If you like Mizuno, hit the mizuno.

thanks everyone. The mizuno is great but it IS getting old! I love the black pearl look so I may go with the cg12 bpearl. Vokey black finish doesnt look great to me...

Next go around I may try the voke.

    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on.
