If titleist's vokey wedges are so great and popular, why don't they make a blade iron set off of the wedges? Opinions?

The same reason why Scotty Cameron doesn't make wedges.

Right. Wedges are completely different.

wedges are designed completely different from irons. They are designed to loft the ball in the air, where as irons put the ball in flight more horizontally. They put different spins on the ball as well.

What about the cleveland cg1s. To the OP i dont think it would work very well. It would also be weird to spin a ball back with a 3-iron with the spin milled grooves. But like everyone else said irons and wedges are VERY different.

    • Interesting discussion. Consider this; we spend 95% of our open eyed life perceiving everything in a front view. That's what we are/become good at. Our eyes/brain don't develop an accurate  sideways aiming system. Plus our perception 'bends' based on shape of the hole, slope, etc. Anyway, I pick a spot 5 feet in between the ball and target and set up my toes parallel to it. That's it. From 150 yards out Im off by 2 feet. Big whoop. You can try to compensate for it, but unless you are good at changing aim in 0.01 degree increments, chances are you will overcompensate.
