What is your opinion on these because they are not the greatest In my opinion. They spin too much they feel rubbish and the variety of shots you can play isnt as big as with other wedges

They are right up there with most other offerings. I don't think they spin more than any other wedge out there. The feel could be improved slightly, but the variety is there. It took me a while to get used to them, but after the first month I have them dialed in and they have contributed to more birdies and up and downs than I can remember.

I prefer my Mizunos, but the majority of PGA Tour pros disagree with your assessment.

What shots do you struggle to hit with the Vokey wedges? Not judging from your handicap only, but most PGA Tour pros feel like they're good enough to hit the shots they need to play every week. But then again, I wouldn't trust what the PGA tour pros say or play, I'd rather listen to a 20 handicapper complain about one of the best wedges on the market.

the pitch with some roll i just seem to get the ball to check which is quite odd

It's you thats producing the check the wedge. You can hit it so that it rolls out.

I haven't played with them enough to form an opinion. They have always felt heavy to me. I don't know if that is fact or not, but a friend has the same set up as me and have hit his a few times. I was pretty indifferent about them in limited use. I've never felt very comfortable with them so I have never owned one.

I will judge my rounds much more by the quality of my best shots than the acceptability of my worse ones.

A wedge is a wedge is a wedge. If you can't make the ball check you have to fix your swing. My Vokey is no better or worse than my MacGregor wedge, or my Adams wedges. I will agree with jamo that it wears very well.

You can control that with how you hit the ball with the wedge... If you want it to have less bite, go to a bunker and take some swings in there.

There are so many solutions to that. Play a lower spinning ball. Hit pitch shots with a less lofted club. Work on your motion to reduce the action of the wrists. Play the shots with a lower trajectory. Don't complain that a very good wedge limits the number of shots you can hit when it's your technique that's causing all the problems

What a ridiculous, arrogant and meaningless piece of drivel this is.

Not the greatest "in your opinion". They "feel rubbish" and the "variety of shots you can play isn't as big as with other wedges" How about elaborating on these absurd claims. It would be enlightening listening to you discussing these shortcomings with Bob Vokey and the hundreds of pros who play these clubs.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

What a silly, needlessly-spiteful reply.

    • Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15.

    • Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs. 
    • Just stumbled onto the article.  Totally random and thought it might be interested to hear other thoughts. maybe I am tired of all the LIV crap and  this just caught my attention.
    • Day 1: Spent some time hitting some balls. Working on my hips and a “soft” and straight trail arm.
