THE NEW VOKEY SM 10 Wedges-now in use on the PGA Tour.

VOKEY SM 10 Wedges are in the golf bags of PGA Tour Players this week at Kapalua Maui-for the Sentry Golf Championship.

Titleist Vokey claims that Vokey Wedges have been the top choice of players on the PGA Tour since 2004.

So in 2023-50% of the wedges in play were Vokey Design, with seven of the world’s top 10 players by years end, having at least one Vokey wedge in their bag. Which includes both open champions Wyndham Clark and Brian Harman.

“I have always said since the day I arrived at Titleist. That I have the best R&D facility in the world-the professional golf tours,” said Vokey.

The Vokey SM 10 evolves from the process of development between tour players and Vokey PGA Tour representative Aaron Dill.

“Both Bob and Aaron have been incredible,” said PGA Tour player and major champion Jordan Spieth. “They have been so much fun to work with. Great guys-and guys who know so much about what they’re doing and they’re so passionate about what they are doing. They stay out of the way and just kind of watch. So if you want to bring them in,, they already know what your going to ask and they know what the response is. Here and there they ask for feedback, just to find out what kind of improvements they can make.”

NEXT WEEK DILL will be back at the grinding wheel in his trailer at the American Express tournament, as the Vokey SM10 Wedges rollout continues. But for more information visit Titleist.com or Vokey.com.
