I bought one the other day and just noticed that it doesn't have the little spin milled symbol on it. Did I get ripped off or what?

Vokey makes/made wedges that are not spin milled, like the Tour Chrome.  These days, though, it seems that almost all you hear about Vokey are his spin milled wedges, and for good reason.  They are great.

If you haven't hit the wedge, you could always return it, but the non-spin milled are still excellent clubs.

Not necessarily.  My 52* Vokey is a 252.08 model that's pre-spin milled.  It's a great club for controlled shots under 100 when I need to keep the ball lower or full swings at 100-115yds.  It will chew up the ball if you're a high spin guy though.

It could be that its just not a spin-milled Vokey.  Ive owned a few Vokeys that were legit, but werent SM.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

I have one.  It is a piece of crap.  I hate it.  Bought it for 120 yard shots.  Goes 100 same as my 56*.  It cant possibly be my swing could it.  No, in truth, i love it around the greens.  Just frustrating on the full shots thus far.

just an older model titleist wedge. hopefully you didn't pay 120 for it and got a discount.

A lot of the Vokey gap wedges aren't spin milled.  When they started spin milling them, they originally didn't spin mill anything below 54*.  It's not crap at all.  It'll spin plenty for a gap wedge...more so than your other irons, but less than your sand wedge...just like it's supposed to.  As you can see, I have one, and I love it.  I say stick with it!

Good luck :-)

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
