VALUE OF A VOKEY FITTING

Every golfer plays wedge shots differently.

The way you play a 20-yard pitch shot or a short-sided chip may be unlike anyone else in your foursome. But despite differences in technique and comfort level, Bob Vokey has always believed that every golfer can become a great wedge player. You just need the right tools for the job.

WHY WEDGE FITTINGS ARE DIFFERENT

Driver fittings are about launch and speed. Iron fittings are about the 3Ds. But wedge fittings operate on an entirely different wavelength.

Wedges move through turf and sand more than any other club in the bag. They’re played from a wider range of lies, with a wider range of techniques, for a wider range of shots. No other club is asked to do this much.

That’s why wedge fitting is a more nuanced blend of performance and feel. Launch monitor data still matters, but so does what you see, what you hear, and what you feel through impact.

LET THE WEDGE CHOOSE YOU

With so many variables—different lofts, bounces, grinds, shafts, and grips—figuring out your ideal setup can be a difficult puzzle to solve on your own. You may think that because your swing is steep, you need more bounce. But until your assumptions are actually put to the test, they may be steering you down the wrong path entirely

Rather than assuming your swing suits a particular grind, Bob Vokey has always maintained that golfers should “let the wedge choose you.”

That’s why the Vokey fitting process is structured with a genuine sense of play. It feels less like a traditional fitting and more like the best short game day of your life. You’ll work through stations—full shots, chips, pitches, bunker shots—hitting all the shots you face in a round of golf while your fitter dials in what’s working. It’s part fitting, part playground.

MASTER THE ART OF SPIN

“Maximum spin” is the fool’s gold of short game performance. The image of launching a wedge past the pin and zipping it back is a romanticized version of what great wedge play looks like. In reality, this kind of shot is rarely a display of skill—it’s usually demonstration of unpredictability.

Different shots require different amounts of spin. A quality short game is about generating the right amount of spin for the specific shot—not the most spin on every shot. The goal is never maximum spin. It’s controlled spin.

This matters for wedge fitting because it reframes what you’re actually looking for. A Vokey fitting isn’t about chasing numbers, it’s about finding the wedge setup that produces consistent, repeatable results across all the shots you play.

STAY BLIND TO THE GRIND

Because each wedge in your bag is designed to serve a different purpose, each one may call for a different grind. And that’s where Vokey fittings get really fun...

Your Vokey Fitting Specialist will have you hit wedges without showing you which grind is on the sole—a blind test. Unlike a driver fitting where you’re constantly glancing back at the monitor to check ball speed and smash factor, wedge fitting lets you be the judge of performance in real time.

You can see the flight. You can feel the turf interaction. You can hear the strike. And when you find the grind that matches your natural technique, the results speak for themselves.

Then, when the grind letter is finally revealed, there’s no second guessing. You’re not choosing a wedge based on what you think should work. You’ve already proven what works best.

HIT SHOTS YOU'VE NEVER SEEN

Once your grinds are dialed in, your fitter will test how they translate to on-course situations. You’ll try different lies. Different launch windows. Different ways to attack the same pin. Shots that once felt risky will start to feel possible. And once you know what you can do with a wedge in your hands, that confidence will carry to the course.

Along the way, your fitter may offer small adjustments—a ball position tweak, a swing thought, a reminder to trust the bounce and let the sole do its job. Some golfers want mechanical detail. Others just need a feeling. Either way, a Vokey fitting will show you what your short game is capable of.

You won’t just walk away with new wedges. You’ll walk away with new shots.
