Players gaming at least one Vokey wedge won 26 PGA Tour events during the season, including the PGA Championship and The Open Championship.

Here’s a deeper dive into the new Vokey SM11 wedges and why they might feature just as much on tour next year…

Vokey Design SM11 Wedges: The Technology

Previous Vokey wedges have had their centre of gravity positioned in slightly different areas depending on the loft. For the SM11s, Vokey has worked to create identical CG placements within a given loft, independent of grind.

This change allows for a more consistent flight and feel regardless of grind option golfers are fitted into.

They feature three progressive CG placements that change by loft to optimise performance.

In lower-lofted wedges, the CG is positioned lower and closer to the centre of the face to promote a smooth transition from your irons. It also works to reduce excessive draw bias on full swings.

In sand wedge lofts of 54 and 56 degrees, the CG sits in a more balanced position. Its used to support versatility across full shots and finesse shots.

Then lob wedges, the CG is positioned higher and more towards the heel. This helps to produce a lower, more controlled trajectory and helps the club face to remain more square through impact.

Like the CG, there are three distinct groove shapes which vary based on loft. Pitching and gap wedges use narrower, deeper grooves to maximise control on full swings.

Whereas sand wedges bridge the gap between full shots and partial shots with a blended groove profile.

And then lob wedges feature wider, shallower grooves designed to better manage debris and maintain spin on open-face and greenside shots.

Additionally, SM11 wedges have a new directional face texture that increases friction and keeps the ball on the face for a longer period at impact. This increases the spin control on more delicate shots around the greens.

To extend performance longevity, SM11 wedges undergo a high-frequency heat treatment that is applied directly to the impact area.

Vokey Design SM11 Wedges: A Closer Look

The Vokey SM11 lineup features 27 unique loft, bounce and grind configurations, spread across six tour-proven grinds: F, S, M, D, K and T. 

Several notable updates have been made to the lineup. The .06K Grind, which was used to win both the PGA Championship and The Open Championship in 2025, is available at launch in 58- and 60-degree lofts. 

A new 44.10F wedge has also been introduced. Ideal for golfers who want the performance and look of a Vokey pitching wedge but require a stronger loft than 46°. This helps with gapping.
