Building on the successful launch of the Vokey SM8 Wedges earlier this year, Titleist is launching the newest option in the Vokey line through WedgeWorks: the Low Bounce K Grind, available in 58 and 60 degrees.

The K Grind is one of the most popular grinds in the Vokey arsenal thanks to its wider sole, with enhanced camber (curvature of the sole from leading to trailing edge). The benefit of this grind is that offers more forgiveness on shots played around the green, and for players that generally play is medium to softer sand conditions.

Like a lot of wedges in the Vokey line, the new Low Bounce K Grind originates from Bob Vokey and longtime Vokey tour rep Aaron Dill’s work with the best players in the world, and the constant refinement, in search of the perfect short game tools.

“Several players preferred the K grind sole but were seeking a lower bounce version,” said Vokey.

“As a result, we crafted a sole with 6° of effective bounce, while maintaining the wide camber that makes the K design so effective for a wide variety of players. As soon as we brought it out on tour, it was immediately accepted and in the bags of multiple players as soon as they had a chance to test it.”

Some of the Low Bounce K grind’s most popular users include Adam Scott and Webb Simpson who both use the 60-06 model.

Vokey’s man on the ground for PGA Tour events Aaron Dill offered up the inside story of how Scott ended up with the 60.06 K wedge in his bag:

“Adam Scott was using the original Vokey Design 200 series (260.08) wedge for several years. As far back as 2012, we started testing the new K grind with him after he mentioned he was looking to improve his bunker play. He was seeking more forgiveness and – after some blind testing – Adam was blown away by how much easier coming out of the sand could be with this grind. We started with a 60.10 K, and as conditions firmed up, Adam mentioned that a little less bounce could be the key. The 60.06 K was born and has been in his bag ever since.”

SM8 Technology

The WedgeWorks Low Bounce K Grind wedges offer the same technology that golfers have come to love in the SM8 line.

This includes a progressive center of gravity that pushes outside and in front of the face for boosted MOI, greater consistency, and trajectory control, as well as Spin Milled grooves to produce maximum spin, and a heat-treated face for long term durability.
