Vokey WedgeWorks initially stopped producing the V Grind after launching it on the SM6. However, they reintroduced it to the market almost seven years later with the WedgeWorks SM9. Fortunately for fans of this particular grind, the wait for the next version was much shorter. Today, Vokey is introducing the newest WedgeWorks V Grind.
The V grind is the fourth WedgeWorks grind released for the SM10, joining the Low Bounce K, L Grind, and A+ Grind. When releasing these options, there is always a specific player/swing type as its intended target. Instead of taking my word for it, let’s hear from Vokey Tour Rep Aaron Dill on what player profile matches perfectly with the WedgeWorks V Grind.
“V Grind players are often a little steeper in their deliveries. They have a little more shaft lean, which means they’re delofting and taking some bounce away. The V Grind also really suits them in softer conditions, or if they’re playing on courses with grainy turf. That’s where the forward bounce comes into play.”
When examining the sole of the V Grind, golfers will notice that the bounce is pushed slightly forward, creating a steep bounce angle that prevents digging. This design provides increased bounce for square-faced shots. Additionally, the enhanced relief on the heel, toe, and trailing edge allows the V Grind to be played open with a leading edge close to the ground, providing the versatility desired by the best players in the world.
V Grind will be available in two lofts, 58° and 60°, featuring 10° of bounce. As a WedgeWorks release, it will come with a Raw finish that will develop a beautiful rust over time.
SM10 TECHNOLOGY
- High and forward center of gravity progression – The CG is moved up and forward for SM10 lofts of 54-62 degrees, which provides a lower trajectory and a squarer face at impact. The higher CG provides a lower trajectory with more spin and greenside control, and moving the CG forward enables the face to square more easily at impact, resulting in a tighter dispersion.
- Patented Spin Milled process for maximum spin – Every SM10 groove is cut to the edge to maximize spin. Each Vokey wedge is 100% inspected for utmost quality and performance.
