Vokey WedgeWorks releases 60 V Grind with Pro Channel

Published

on

If you’re a regular viewer of our weekly photos from the professional tours, you might have noticed Robert Streb’s unique Vokey lob wedge. You may have even wished that you could try the unique grind.

Well, now you can.

Streb used this Island Green-inspired wedge the week of The Players Championship.

Streb used this Island Green-inspired wedge the week of The Players Championship.

Vokey WedgeWorks has released limited-quantities of the wedge inspired by the company’s work with Robert Streb and other players, officially called the V Grind with Pro Channel.

A wedge with a V Grind, which is a custom grind available through Vokey Hand Ground — has a narrow, high-bounce section on the front of the sole to resist digging. What’s unique about this wedge is the combination of the V Grind with a Pro Channel, a groove cut into the back of the sole that effectively narrows the bounce area and allows the leading edge to sit flatter to the ground when the wedge is opened for greater versatility around the greens.

The WedgeWorks exclusive sells for $275 and comes with a raw finish. As always with WedgeWorks, golfers can personalize the 60V with Pro Channel in a variety of ways.

    Just google Ram Troon Grind and you will see this Vokey copy. I had one in my bag 20+ years ago. I really liked it as I could lay it almost perfectly flat. It was great for hitting extra high shots off tight lies to close pins. But in reality why carry a club for a shot you might use once every couple of rounds.

      What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.

      But if I can get someone to pay $275 than thats on them not me.

    $275 for a harsh feeling, paying for a name wedge? But it is inspired by Robert Streb that has to add nothing. What a joke vokey and cameron are becoming.

      They only feel harsh when you don’t them in the center…but yes, $275 is a ghastly price to pay for a wedge…errr…grind…especially when you consider that their hybrids cost the same.

      No. V grind has been around for a LONG time. Zach Johnson has used one over 10 years

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups 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.

  • PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
  • driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300.  The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length.  I am playing a Ventus Red 70.   I play 70 grams in my fairways.  I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee.  When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time.  So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck.  The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
  • JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
