Hello everyone
I'm an Hp 29 and i've just bought a new set of irons (Mizuno MX-100 To Burner XD) and now i found myself without a sandwedge.
I've thinking about buying a new sandwedge for a long time and now i've got the reason xD.
My last sand was a Mizuno MX-100 perimethral.
I was looking for something "thin" to across better behind the ball. Something smoother than my Mizuno MX-100.
My teacher said my last sandwedge was ok but when we played together i didn't want to use mine but used a blade Titleist from a friend of mine saying mine sucks xD.
Anyway i was thinking about Titleist Vokey but i can't understand the difference between the 3 choiches:
Titleist Spin Milled Vokey Oil Can Wedge
Titleist Spin Milled Vokey Tour Chrome Wedge
Titleist Spin Milled Vokey Black Nickel Wedge
Apparently they look like the same iron, just changing material, or worst, just the color.
Could somebody explain me which are the differences if they exist?

They all suck because they aren't forged.

Think it's personal what is the best or feel the best,

just give them a try, have the tour chrome version,

i like them most because of the traditional look and color.

pretty hard to say using a white driver i know, but in irons and wedges

the traditional look just makes me more comfortable.

But than it's your own choise on what you like most.

There have been rumours that because the Oil Can finish (the finish I chose) rusts intentionally that it would give more spin. I can't attest to it solely because I never generate excessive spin anyway.

The chrome is going to last a little longer...but the others are going to have a little better feel. Once the chrome gets beat up, it'll feel fine...and it'll still have some grooves left. By the time the oil can or the dark finish wedges get nice and beat up, they'll have no grooves left.

I like the chrome a bit better for looks.  The nickle will start to wear and lighten.  The Oil can will rust.  I hate rust.  I've tried them all and don't see much different in performance.

having owned all 3 at some point over the last 3 years i can honestly say there isnt alot of difference. i prefer traditional looking clubs so i would say the chrome was best for me. I also had good results with the satin spin milled vokey as well but that said the performance for all 3 across the board are near enough exactly the same

    • First going to spain for a long weekend in March probably going to play La Quinta, Los Arqueros and Fina Cortesin, and first week in May will compete in the Crawsnest Tassie at Carnoustie golf links, that will be a full week of golf golf golf and more golf. Did play it last year for the first time and it is awesome.
    • Scrubs is coming back to ABC. February 25.
    • Day 47: simulator day! Played St. Andrew’s and shot a +1. Not bad, especially with having to putt at this simulator set up. Had about 5 minutes at the end to work on some feels as well. 
    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.
