Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Workability91
- Feel90
- Looks90
Watch
Rated highest for workability and feel; its softest dimension is forgiveness.
You're a confident ball-striker who wants tour-level spin, the widest grind selection in golf and precise distance control - and you'll pick the right grind for your turf and swing.
You need maximum forgiveness or a cavity-back, game-improvement wedge - a Cleveland CBX or Ping wedge is more forgiving.
Pros
- MyGolfSpy 2024 Most Wanted Best for Accuracy - the best strokes gained in the entire test, and 3rd overall
- Elite, weather-resistant spin - around 10,000 rpm on 100-yard shots, losing only 300-400 rpm when wet, and ~200 rpm more than the SM9
- The benchmark for versatility - six tour-proven grinds across 25 loft, bounce and grind combinations
- MyGolfSpy 2024 Most Wanted Best for Looks, Feel and Sound - a crisp, robust click
Cons
- It's a tour blade wedge - far less forgiving than a cavity-back or game-improvement wedge
- Premium pricing in the £150+ bracket, and the changes over the SM9 are subtle
By dimension
Forgiveness
SolidStrong for a tour blade, but the category's natural limit - named the best wedge for accuracy with the best strokes gained across an entire Most Wanted test and a Top 10 consistency finish, with forgiving F, D and K grinds and a refined progressive CG aiding solid contact. Consistent and accurate, but still a precision blade rather than a forgiving cavity-back wedge.
Distance
ExcellentElite distance control - the best accuracy and strokes gained of a Most Wanted test, reflecting tight distance and dispersion control, with a refined progressive CG and 25 tightly-spaced loft, bounce and grind options for precise gapping. A wedge built for repeatable yardages.
Workability
Class-leadingThe category benchmark - six tour-proven grinds (F, S, M, K, T, D) across 25 loft, bounce and grind combinations, the T grind with maximum relief for sharp shotmaking and the M for playing shots from a variety of clubface positions. The most versatile shotmaking wedge in golf.
Feel
Class-leadingTop of the class - rated the best wedge for feel by 20 testers, with a crisp, robust click on centre and clear, improved feedback. The precise, solid sensation tour players demand.
Sound
ExcellentA strength - a crisp, robust click on centred strikes that turns to a louder knock off-centre for clear feedback, rated the best wedge for sound by testers. A clean, premium, informative note.
Looks at address
Class-leadingBest in test - rated the best wedge for looks by a tester panel, with progressive modern shaping, simple, unfussy heads, straight leading edges in the low lofts and more sculpted profiles in the high lofts that inspire confidence. A clean, classic tour aesthetic.
