Titleist Releases Vokey WedgeWorks A Grind Lob Wedges

Vokey Design releases the WedgeWorks A Grind, a low bounce lob wedge grind with a narrow, smooth sole that produces a fast feel through the turf. The A Grind features 4 degrees of bounce, and it is ideal for the player looking to smoothly slide the wedge under the ball and flight the ball higher while playing from firm turf and bunkers. WedgeWorks A Grind lob wedges are available now in 58- and 60-degree lofts and feature a Raw finish. 

The A Grind was originally born out of the collaboration between Vokey Tour Representative Aaron Dill and 2006 U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy, who was looking for a wedge that moved through firm turf faster than his gamer L Grind. Dill took Ogilvy’s feedback and removed the ribbon on the L grind, resulting in a smoothed-out sole that cut through the ground with less resistance.

Titleist Adds 58.06K, 60.06K Lob Wedge Models to Vokey Design SM10 Lineup

Vokey Design, themost played wedges on the PGA TOUR since 2004, will extend its SM10 family in 2025 with the addition of two new tour-proven offerings – the 58.06K and 60.06K lob wedges. The .06K models offer the greenside versatility of a low bounce lob wedge with the added forgiveness of a wide K Grind sole, which excels out of the bunker. These features are particularly geared towards players with shallower deliveries, or those who play on firmer turf conditions, yet still benefit from the performance of a wider sole.

The .06K Grind lob wedge, which has been available as a WedgeWorks offering in prior years, was born out of the collaboration between Master Craftsman Bob Vokey and players competing at the highest level of professional golf. In the case of the .06K Grind, Vokey found that some players preferred the K Grind sole but needed a lower bounce version to hit higher, softer pitches off the firm, tight lies on tour.
