Our Thoughts

Well, there we have it the best of then and now and we simply can't ignore how good the Titleist Vokey wedges are and the longevity they have. A personal favourite is the PXG Sugar Daddy wedges but any in this list will improve your game and why not try out an older model wedge and put some cash back in your pocket? An honourable mention would have to be TaylorMade's MD3 wedges.
