Titleist Vokey Forged 2017 Japan Only

It seems like Vokey Wedges are everywhere!  For the last 15 years, Vokey wedges have been a dominant force on tour.  They are probably the most widely used wedges in the world at this point.   Introducing the 2017 Vokey Design Forged Wedge!   Are these Forged Wedges similar to the global model SM6s?  Think again!   This is the 3rd generation Japan model Vokey Design Forged Wedge.   Previous generation models were very popular among JDM fans.    So let’s take a closer look at this all new Vokey Forged Wedge to see what’s different over the previous gen forged models as well as the global SM6 wedges, shall we?   Follow the jump to read more…

Vokey Forged

First off, the SM6 are cast 8620 Carbon Steel and the Vokey Design Forged Wedge, as the name suggests, are Forged Carbon Steel.     As many of you know, forged carbon steel provides that exceptional dense buttery feel at impact which many golf enthusiasts around the world crave shot after shot.     That part is nothing new to us. From the outside,  the shape is very traditional and frankly similar looking to past Vokey wedges other than the slightly added offset with the 2017 Vokey Design Forged Wedge.     This subtle offset should help inspire confidence for those seeking added forgiveness in a wedge.

The biggest change that sets this new Vokey Forged apart from other forged wedges in the market today is the internal weighting structure.  Similar to the 716 CB and 716 AP2 irons, these Forged Wedges have Titanium and Tungsten weight elements co-forged which moves the CG to an optimum location to improve shot consistency for each loft setting.   The approach used by the SM6 is different. They strategically altered the thickness of the back face to move the CG up and down.    With the Forged Wedges, the weight was moved internally which allowed them to keep a clean traditional look on the back face.     Other notable features include TX4 grooves with added parallel milling for enhanced spin performance as well as a pre-worn leading edge for a smoother turf interaction.

The new Vokey Forged Wedge really looks good at address.   A familiar teardrop shape with the slightest offset,  which really isn’t much if you actually look at it. Traditional looks will appeal to the most discerning players. Most would find it an easy switch from their current gamers.

Available in Satin Chrome (48 to 60 in 2 deg increments) and Black PVD finishes (50 52, 56, 58 only) , they are also available as Right Hand only.   In the more popular lofts, you can choose from F, M and K grinds for your specific needs.

If you are a Titleist fan, ( and who isn’t? ) and you want to stay with Vokey wedges but want something JDM and high-tech than your next door neighbor’s Vokey wedges, the 2017 Vokey Design Forged Wedge is a sensible choice.   After all it is arguably the most trusted brand name in short game.

You can purchase the new forged vokey in 2 finishes and a variety of different lofts and CG options here – click here

  • @geotechgolf_official is a subsidiary of DYNAMIC, one of the biggest driver factories in the world. DYNAMIC is responsible for manufacturing metal woods for many of the top OEMs, which have won countless victories including many major victories.  The QUELOT in this post is in my opinion longer, straighter and more forgiving than the PING G425.  But what really makes it special is its SP700 face which is widely known to be the best and most desirable face material in the industry.  The reason why you may not hear about it is that SP700 is no longer produced. SP700 was a golf-specific titanium made by the Japanese company JFE.  Once the material was discontinued DYNAMIC purchased all they could which translates to about 5-10 years worth.  SP700 is an expensive material with very high ball speeds and an amazing feel at impact. face vs face the SP700 material has some of the highest and fastest rebound attributes in the game.  It also feels sublime! #tourspecgolf

  • I appreciate the aesthetic appeal of copper finishes, as do many others on the internet. However, one of the main concerns is that they tend to rust quickly, particularly in humid or high salt-content areas. It would be wonderful if they could maintain their beauty over time. My suggestion is to dry it thoroughly after each use and apply a light coat of oil on a regular basis. With consistent maintenance, copper finishes can remain stunning, with the sole and hitting area on the face displaying exposed silver, which is the color of the forged steel #tourspecgolf
