I have a nickel 52* Pure Spin and am not fond of it. Pulled it out and replaced it. My 52 has no bounce and has a sharp leading edge. I hit it fat to often. Not sure if there all like that, but I would want to look at the club before I bought it. Most I've seen online don't list the degree of bounce they have. I have to say the quality is great less the grip it come's with. Mine needs replaced and has maybe 25 rounds on it.

well I ended up picking up another Callaway X-Tour Vintage
they were a couple more bucks off yet, so i got it for $79 CDN
its a little higher bounce that my Vokey, but I will get used to it
i LOVE my 56 Sand Wedge, so i had to have another

C-H,

Vokey has a whole bunch of wedges - about six sole grinds, and lots of lofts for each grind.
Depends a lot on how much divot you take on your average shot.

Also, the Vokey wedge site @Titleist tells all about the physics of wedges, and what mix you might want for your bag.

Good entertainment for a rainy day...

Im really really surprised only one person mentioned Hippo wedges...

I just got a 56 and a 60 from a friend...

They are forged and feel super soft, great spin, look rediculously cool, and cost very little money....

Honestly, its the only wedge I'll buy from now on...

Vokey's are really cool, but so expensive

Take a look at the hippo wedges!

Yea man, and they feel sooo soft when you hit the sweet spot... They look really badass in the bag too, nothing on the sole of the club, just the nice finish!

You will like that club! Im a believer after using them for just one round!

Well, I placed an order for a 56* HWT earlier today, so I guess you can go collect your commission now

LOL, sweet! You will seriously love that wedge, and for the price, it absolutely cannot be beat... Im so glad my buddy gave me that wedge as I was thinking about dropping 120 on a vokey...

This wedge feels really nice....

Let us know how you like it...

What did you end up paying for it?

I'll definitely report back on it, and I got it for £35, or ~$55. Not sure if that's a price you were expecting or it seems high, but everything seems to be a shade pricier over here, or when bought new at least

(For comparison, someone mentioned Nike SV Tours for ~$65 earlier, and the cheapest I've found them new, from a retailer at least, is ~$90. This country...)

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 549, May 4, 2024 After lessons and working with Natalie, hit some balls for awhile. Just backswing stuff. Forgot about the slightly shorter stuff, though I'm sure it was as they were only about 75% speed with brief pauses.

      Best Shot of the Week

      Best drive I've ever hit: I will not be answering any questions about the rest of the hole. Or the round, for that matter.

      7 Wood

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      I tried hybrids way back when TaylorMade introduced the copper orange Firesole Rescue, the clubhead having been made of titanium which was still relatively new even in drivers back then. I couldn't hit it well at all, and while the success of hybrids suggests that the modern ones must be quite good,  I'm perfectly happy with the 5, 7, and 9-woods.  Early ones of mine were Top Flite Intimidator 400s made by Spalding... and also made of titanium, now that I think of it.  I still have them in my basement. I do bag a driving iron, but it's a one-trick-pony that never sees fairway use.

      New Maxfli Tour and Tours Balls?

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      The last time I played Maxfli balls, Dunlop was still making them. How long ago was that? Mostly, though, I used to play Top Flites (original 336 dimple model) when Spalding was still making them. Now I play the Pro V1x. Last time that I ordered some, Titleist was still making them. Let's see how long that lasts.
