Best golf wedges 2018 – Titleist Vokey SM7
In a nutshell: The No. 1 wedge on the PGA Tour used by the likes of Jordan Speith, Justin Thomas, Paul Casey and Rafa Cabrera Bello.
We haven’t seen wholesale changes from the SM6 models but anyone upgrading from SM5 or SM4 will notice a major improvement.
Bob Vokey has refined some of his classic shapes and grinds and tweaked the centre of gravity locations to improve consistency.
With six grinds to choose from, lofts from 46˚-62˚ and three finishes, the only way to get the best out of these wedges is to get a proper custom-fitting.
But if you’re not getting your wallet out from the looks alone, the feel, spin and performance will make it very hard not to.
