Vokey WedgeWorks, the Titleist-owned subsidiary that produces Tour-proven and trusted short game clubs, has rolled out the low bounce K Grind in 58-degree and 60-degree lofts with a Raw finish.

The K Grind features just six degrees of bounce and gives players the versatility required to enable proper shot shaping. The low bounce of the K Grind gives players the opportunity to open up the face and hit softer shots off of tighter lies around the green or out of the bunker.

Bob Vokey, head of the legendary Vokey WedgeWorks brand, said:

“Several players preferred the K grind sole but were seeking a lower bounce version. As a result, we crafted a sole with 6 degrees of effective bounce, while maintaining the wide camber that makes the K design so effective for a wide variety of players. As soon as we brought it out on tour, it was immediately accepted and in the bags of multiple players as soon as they had a chance to test it.”

The K Grind is played by several big names across male and female professional tours. Danielle Kang, Robert MacIntyre, and Bud Cauley, all use the K Grind:

“The K grind lives in the bags of some of the world’s best. It has always been known as the ultimate bunker club. However, when you ask players on tour why they play the K grind, they will tell you not only do they love the performance in the bunkers, but they love the way the leading edge hugs the ground when pitching and chipping.”

-Aaron Dill, longtime Vokey Tour Representative.

The K Grind is available on the SM10 Vokey Wedge, which is the newest iteration of the most-used wedge on Tour.

The K Grind comes standard with a True Temper Dynamic S200 shaft and a Titleist Universal 360.

The K Grind is available as of today for $225.

Key Questions

What is the difference between the WW Low Bounce K and the SM10 K Grind?
  • Both grinds feature a wide, high-cambered sole and are great out of the bunker. The SM10 K Grind has 14 degrees of bounce and is better suited for steep swings and soft conditions, while the WW Low Bounce K has 6 degrees of bounce and is better suited for shallow swings and firm and fast conditions.
What is the difference between the WW Low Bounce K and the SM10 T Grind?
  • Both are low bounce wedges and require precise delivery, but the WW Low Bounce K features a wide, high-cambered full sole. The SM10 T Grind has a narrow sole, with heel, toe, and trailing edge relief. Players looking for the ultimate bunker club in a lower bounce option may prefer the WW Low Bounce K Grind.
