VOKEY ALERT: Special wedges for 2012 Ryder Cuppers
By Zak Kozuchowski
GolfWRX Managing Editor
These 2012 Vokey Ryder Cup wedges were given to Vokey loyalists who qualified for the Ryder Cup at this week’s Tour Championship presented by Coca-Cola at East Lake Golf Club.
They are Vokey TVD 54-degree wedges with Black Oxide finishes. The U.S. wedges have Limited Edition U.S. Ryder Cup Dynamic Gold shafts and Golf Pride Patriot Grips. The European Wedges have Limited Edition European Ryder Cup Dynamic Gold Shafts and blue and gold Golf Pride Vokey VDR grips.
“We wanted to do something special for both sides, U.S. and Europe,” said David Neville, marketing manager at Vokey. “But they’re not playing with these. They are commemorative.”
Ryder Cup team members not playing this week at the Tour Championship will receive their commemorative Vokey wedges next week at Medinah.

From the Forums: I need more forgiveness in my irons – Looking for recommendations
In our forums, our members have been discussing the most forgiving irons currently on the market. WRXer ‘TheShark1’ is on the hunt for a new set of irons, saying:
“Currently gaming the Mizuno Pro 225’s but think I need more forgiveness in my irons. My well struck shots are real nice, but my mishits are not performing as good as I had hoped anymore. I really like hollow body irons so if I could find something more forgiving in a hollow body iron that would be great.
Open to any and all recommendations other than Ping. Can’t hit Ping irons at all.”
And our members have been sharing their best suggestions in our forum.
Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
- AvidSwampThing66: “Another vote for the super forgiving and fast Paradym irons. They look really good for being a GI iron.”
- bobfoster: “I just went from MP20 MMCs to the new 245s in my scoring irons (just played my first round with them today). If you have a chance to try them, you might find them worth a serious look.”
- vman: “Shoot me down, but spend the money on lessons.”
- J_Tizzle: “i525s are great off the heel in my opinion.”
