Vokey SM10 Review

Wedge · 4 rounds in my bag

7.6/ 10

The short version

I did not expect much from the Vokey SM10, then the ball stays on the face a fraction longer, and I can feel exactly where it hit. Half wedges from 60 yards stopped rolling out on me, which is the whole point of buying one. The catch: the grooves lose bite once wet grass gets involved, same as everything else.

How it played

No lab and no press-release numbers here: 4 rounds, real turf, real nerves. What I keep coming back to is that the ball stays on the face a fraction longer, and I can feel exactly where it hit. Where it bit me: the grooves lose bite once wet grass gets involved, same as everything else — worth knowing before you spend the money.

How it looks

Simple grind, tidy grooves, and no shouting from the back. I care less about that than how it feels, but it does not hurt.

What won me over

open the face and it still sits flat
feel on delicate chips is excellent
spin holds up on the second-bounce check

Good to know before you buy

it demands a clean strike from the rough
the grooves will wear if you practise a lot

My verdict

7.6/10 from me. If you have a scoring club you do not trust from 100 yards in, the Vokey SM10 earns its spot in the bag. If it demands a clean strike from the rough is a dealbreaker for you, keep looking.
