Popular low-bounce option becomes seventh SM9 stock grind
The unrivalled versatility of the Vokey Design SM9 wedge line-up will add even more shot-making options with the introduction of the low-bounce T Grind, one of the most popular grinds on the PGA TOUR. Previously available only as a WedgeWorks custom order, the T Grind will now be widely available in both stock and custom options as an extension to the existing SM9 family. Offered in SM9 58.04T and 60.04T models, the T becomes the seventh grind in the SM9 matrix. Engineered by Master Craftsman Bob Vokey, the T Grind is built for players seeking to unlock ultimate creativity and versatility around the greens. As a low-bounce wedge with a narrow crescent surface and wider back flange, the grind allows for shot-making under any condition. Players with shallow and precise deliveries and those playing off firm conditions will benefit from the T Grind’s sole design. Compared to the L Grind, SM9’s other low-bounce option, the T Grind features a narrower forward sole and more aggressive heel, toe and trailing edge relief.
“Wedge play is an art, and the T Grind brings out the best in the artist. The leading edge stays low to the playing surface as the wedge is rotated, which allows the golfer to hit a variety of shots from tight lies. This is the wedge that really made Vokey Grinds an important part of our process – and is still a great option to this day.” Bob Vokey
T GRIND ON TOUR: The Vokey T Grind has continued to grow in popularity across the worldwide professional tours and is the lob wedge of choice for many of the game’s best players, including Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, Cameron Smith, Will Zalatoris and Cameron Young. Players with a T Grind lob wedge in the bag won nine different events during the 2021-2022 PGA TOUR season, including Smith’s victory at the 150th Open Championship at St. Andrews. That week at the Old Course, the T Grind was so popular that Vokey Tour Rep Aaron Dill ran out of heads on the Titleist Tour Van. SM9 TECHNOLOGY: Ultimate in shot versatility Vokey SM9 wedges provide the ultimate in shot versatility through seven tour-proven grinds – F, S, M, K, L, D and T. Finding the right grind to match your swing and playing conditions will give you the best turf interaction, contact and shot performance. Progressive Centre of Gravity for precise distance & trajectory control The CG has been raised vertically by adding weight to the topline design, where a tapered pad at the back of the toe helps align the CG properly without being visible from the playing position – promoting a more controlled ball flight and solid contact. New patented Spin Milled process for maximum spin A new Spin Milled cutting process in the SM9 models – which includes tightening our allowable tolerances - produces consistently sharper grooves wedge after wedge, resulting in a higher, more consistent spin. VOKEY WEDGE SELECTOR: The Vokey Wedge Selector tool helps golfers select the proper loft, bounce and grind options for their swing and course conditions.
