Vokey SM10 Wedge Review - PGAPappas and Carl’s Golfland Winner Guest Review

Every single time I visit Bloomfield Hills, MI. I have the most absolutely perfect time.  I have family here.  I usually play The South Course at Oakland Hills CC (the first host of the Play With Pete Invitational by the way).  And by the time I'm getting ready to return home I'm already looking forward to coming back.

One of my last visits to Bloomfield Hills however my time here became even more fun.  I was covering the U.S. Junior Am for the week and stopped in Carl's Golfland for the first time as it was just up the road from OHCC.  And WOW I did not know what I was missing.

Titleist Introduces Vokey WedgeWorks 44F Pitching Wedge

Titleist introduces the new Vokey Design WedgeWorks 44F pitching wedge, designed for players who prefer the performance and profile of a Vokey pitching wedge but require a stronger loft to properly gap their set.

The SM10 46.10F pitching wedge, or even 48.10F for some, offers different performance benefits than a set pitching wedge, namely improved spin control from the rough and turf interaction from the fairway.
