Hey folks, changing my wedges been a cleveland man for years had cg10s and upgraded to cg11s last season but really dont think the feel as solid on contact as the cg10s were, so considering the cg12s or 14s, Nike TWs or Titleist Vokey Spin Milled wedges, would love to hear users opinions and reviews if they play with any of the wedges mentioned :)

Which wedges are you looking at getting, not like what company, but what lofts. I know that the TW's only come in 56* SW and 60* LW. If you really want 's then look at the SV Tours. I have tried the CG12's and they felt amazing. I have never tried the Titleist SM's, but I think almost everybody here on this forum wants them because they feel so amazing. Hope this helps and good luck.

Here's what I play:

Titleist 907 D2 10.5* UST ProForce V2 76-S | Titleist 906F4 18.5* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist 585H 21* Aldila VS Proto "By You" 80-S | Titleist ZB 4-PW TTDG S300 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 54.10 | Bob Vokey Spin Milled Oil Can 60.08 | Scotty Cameron Red X5 33" |

Hey, not on your list...but definetly look into the TM TP's, or racs.

they are beautiful wedges, and they resemble my 588, but with a ease of play about 'em, dont need to try and spin, they just do.. definetly look into them, but if not, i think the vokeys are probobly te best wedges around right now...

Well I have 3 wedges.. The Maltby M Forged, Cleveland CG14, and the Titleist Vokey 260.08..

Overall, I would say the Clevelands are the best.. When it comes to hitting from the rough, it destroys the others. As for the fairway, the Maltby's the best and the Vokey was slightly better than the Clevelands. I got the Cleveland instead of the Vokey SM because I heard that the Zip grooves don't shred up the ball and that it's better from the rough. I never tried the 12's but the cg14's are more forgiving, from what I've heard.. Either way, I don't think you can go wrong with any of the wedges you mentioned, so in the end, I'd go with the one that feels/looks nice, since that will help your confidence.

I've been using the CG12 and CG14 in the last few weekend. They are good, but not as good as the Spin milled Titleist.

Hey folks, to be honest ive always had 4 wedges in my bag PW, GW-52, SW-56, LW-60, really like the look of the CG14s but not sure on this insert business on the back of them, i think thats why i dont like the cg11s because they have the cut out on the back with the CG logo on them maybe thats why i feel i dont get as solid a contact, i defo dont hit them as far as i did the cg10s.

Just seem to be reading review after review on wedges and the best of the best seem to be cleveland, titleist and nike closely followed by callaways and taylormades.

Ideally looking for something that will give me solid feeling contact on full wedge approach shots but retain that great feel about the greens, spinning the ball isnt a problem i seem to be able to do this with 6-pw anyway.

Any further comments warmly recieved :)

I just put my 588 gunmetals back in the bag. I had bought Vokey SM's to replace them, and while they do an incredible job of stopping the ball, from anywhere, they just never felt right to me. On fullswing shots, my 588's stop dead, maybe come back a few feet, the SM's have at times sucked right off the front green. Does it happen all the time? No, but that's another issue I have is that my results with those wedges aren't as consistent. The Cleveland's also feel heavier in the clubhead to me, which I like in a wedge.

IMO, you either like the look of the Cleveland, or the look of the Vokey. All others wedges are in some way similar to these two. I personally think the Callaway is an excellent wedge and I wish they made more lofts in LH, designed by Roger Cleveland so I bet you know why I like them. I think the biggest one you've missed in your serach though is Mizuno. They are incredible wedges, forged instead of cast, and come in two versions, the MPT (teardrop shape) and MPR (round). The MPR series also comes with a sole grind that you'd have to pay extra for on most other wedges.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By saevel25 · Posted

      So, Brendan Sorsby, Texas Tech transfer QB, was found guilty of sports betting by the NCAA. He admitted to it. He placed thousands of bets over multiple years while at Indiana and Cincinnati. This included betting on his own teams.  The NCAA rules ban athletes from betting on any sport (college or pro).  A retired visiting judge from Tarrant County, Texas has put an injunction on the NCAA ruling. He is a visiting judge because the first judge was a graduate and big fan of Texas Tech, and he recused himself. The judged ruled the following... "Under Curry's order, Sorsby is permitted to play for Texas Tech's 2026 season on the condition that he continues his treatment for a gambling and anxiety disorder and serves a two-game suspension (missing games against Abilene Christian and Oregon State)."  Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly care for the NCAA. That still doesn't mean that a college can choose when or where to say, "Yea we agree to these rules for all our sports, well except in this case." Here is a breakdown from S&W. The Hidden Weapon in Sorsby’s Injunction: How a Lubbock County Court Order Quietly Neutralized the NCAA’s Most Powerful Enforcement Tool - Law Offices of Snell & Wilmer By Ryan J. Regula On June 8, 2026, Lubbock County District Court Judge Ken Curry issued a temporary injunction in Brendan Sorsby v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, Cause No. DC-2026-CV-0791 (99th Judicial District... The main judgement made sense. Sorsby, I am going to have all this harm done to me if I don't get to play. The Judge, I agree. The penalty for gambling is too harsh, so here are all these things you must do, and I will grant this injunction against the NCAA. Basically, an analogy would be when a person goes into court for a DUI and they agree to all these other things to not end up in jail.  What sucks for the NCAA is the NCAA has appealed to Texas’ Seventh Court of Appeals, based in Amarillo. All four justices that preside over the court are graduates of Texas Tech University School of Law. It would be hilarious if all four of them had to recuse themselves 🤣. For those who like to read legal rulings...

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By StuM · Posted

      The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I saw this comment made in a golf article... "Most golfers stand over a 4- or 5-iron still negotiating with themselves. They think about how hard to swing, whether they have the right club, if they have the aim correct and more. It’s a lot to deal with and long irons punish the “half-in” golf swing." I am not sure the "most golfers" is correct regarding the bolded part. I can understand if there is a bunker, water, and/or OB that a lot of golfers would be fixated on that. I am not sure that leads to ending up more times there. Pending your level in golf, the variance is so large in outcomes, it could be just with in the expected outcomes. I can understand if have a big lake on the right side of the hole being one of the most terrifying shots for right-handed amateur golfers.  I am not sure many golfers are standing over the ball talking to themselves, "Ok, maybe I should step back and pull the 4-iron. Am I lined up right? Oh, the wind came up, should I swing harder? What am I going to have for dinner tonight, maybe steak. (Joking, somewhat 😛)" A question is that how much chatter do you get while standing over the ball. Are you questioning the everything about your golf shot?
