Great video and explanation. Love my Vokey wedges!

I love my new SM11 wedges Rocky Nunes is my Titleist fitter and this guy is dope he is so good what a difference getting fit for wedges makes in your game.

I did my fitting with Trevor at Longwood Country club in Houston. Fitting was tremendous. Amazing how easy to do all the shots you want with these clubs. Clubs performed so well, went from a 4 wedge setup to a 3 with a lot better control.

I’ll break the ice. I don’t have much insight yet, but I was fitted last week for 2 SM11 wedges - 52.08 F and 56.14 F. Currently in transit. Shout out to my Titleist fitter, Matt Digiovanni. After a very long hiatus from golf ( long story), I started playing again last year. A lot has changed! I’ve been working hard on rebuilding my swing (definitely not like riding a bicycle!). When I started back into the game, I decided to just play wedges that matched my irons when I was fitted for the irons, at least until my swing mechanics came back to me enough where I could justify the upgrade.

Here are my initial observations/comments based the fitting:

Matt was awesome and provided good insight that complemented the Titleist fitting software. He took the time to understand my situation, what I was experiencing with my wedge play, and make the right recommendations to blend the new wedges with my iron set. He explained the rationale behind the recommended bounce and grind for each club.

I learned a lot about my wedge swings - full, pitching and chips - and the differences in ball striking, particularly angle of descent, depending on the swing.

The SM11 wedges felt great. I immediately noticed much more bite from the grooves. My spin rate increased significantly over my old gap and sand wedges. I also noticed that I was hitting the wedge face in the sweet spot more consistently. It was nice to confirm that with some trace golf ball material on the face of the club.

The SM11 wedges gave me a lower trajectory that I have been seeking. Night and day difference from my old set.

The Titleist fitting process made all of the club options so much less overwhelming.

It was nice to establish a relationship with Matt and I look forward to being able to consult with him as my game improves and needs change.

All in all a wonderful experience. Given my situation, I didn’t know what to expect and was a little intimidated going into it. I highly recommended the process even for a mid to high handicap player.

I’m sure others with more experience will follow with their thoughts; I just thought I would offer my two cents.

My first experience with a Titleist wedge was with a SM10. All my past wedges have been cally . I bought a 48 degree, and was very impressed. So when the offer came for a fitting for the 11, I contacted Matt Garland at Ancil Hoffman. Matt was fantastic! We spent some time going through the all the different combinations. I purchased a 52 and a 56. Now all my wedges are Titleist. I really liked the feel and the balance of these wedges. I feel vey confident that these wedges will greatly improve my short game.. Thanks again, Matt and Titleist!

I got fit for my wedges for the first time!
I’ve gotten my woods and recently irons fit (T250/350+hybrid).

I was fit at Olivas by the same fitter who did my irons Zack Connor. He did a great job with my irons last year that I had to come back and complete my bag with fitted wedges.

I previously played 50/56/60 sm9 that I bought used with no thoughts on bounce or grind.

I was fit for 48 / 54 / 58 with the right bounce and grinds for my game. Anxiously awaiting them as the are in progress but I have a great feeling it will improve my game as my iron fitting helped quite a bit!

Got fitted into two new SM 11 wedges by Cameron Buckley at a Titleist fitting event in Palm Desert. Cameron did such a good job in helping me get the correct wedges for my game. Took them out for the first time today, and man, what a difference. Finally was not afraid that I would chunk my 60 degree (now actually 58 degree K grind (K12), but bent to 60). Instead, trying to figure out how close I could get the ball to the hole. Will likely go from being my least favorite club in my bag to my favorite.

Great look and feel to them and so far very pleased.

Thanks again Cameron!

I was just fit for my SM11s yesterday. Great fitting with Marc, a Titleist rep out here in San Diego. I had an idea on my grinds for my 50 and 60 but was surprised about my grind for my 56.

He had me hit shots without looking at the grinds so we can see what worked best. Could feel the difference between the grinds. The bunker shots were important since that part of my game has been suffering.

Ended up with:

50F
56F ( bending to 55)
60M

I’m adding grip master leather grips for my 55 and 60 degree. Can’t wait to get the wedges in my hand.

Same specs in SM11 as SM10 for me.

I stayed in the M grind in the 56.08 and F in 50.08. I like having the same bounce in both.

Compared to SM10, these are easier to flight down, even on short shots around the green, and consistency just keep improving with every line.

I really loved the SM10s and didn't think these could be any better, but I was wrong. Can't see the innovation, as the clubheads are very similar, but it's there.

Fitting makes such a difference.

I finally upgrade from SM8's to the new SM11 line. The feel around the greens is still superb - it's amazing what fresh grooves can do. I have seen a big upgrade in the half wedge shots that I normally hit - I like to play lower trajectory shots with my 50* and 54* that hit and stop. The ball flight I'm seeing thus far with the SM11 wedges is exactly what I wanted. I switched up grind/bounce options on my 54 this time around for more versatility around the greens (54.10S to 54.08M) and I've been very happy thus far. Importantly, I've seen no drop off in contact/turf interaction on full swings with this club, as well.

I got fitted recently for a new 50, 54, & 58 by Matt at Cantigny in Illinois and so far so good on my home sim and indoor league I play throught these brutal Midwest winters - I continue to be impressed by the improved feel and workabilty of these wedges each release. Looking forward to warmer weather when I can get out on the course and see these rip on the greens!

I did my fitting here in LA (Lower Alabama) on 2/4 and received my order on 2/10 - 52.08F and 56.08M, both 1* weak - and immediately put them into play that day. Blake Miller did a wonderful job of helping me dial in what I was wanting/expecting and fully explaining cause/effect of the different options of both bounce and lie.

Getting new wedges is always a good thing and I could tell right away the benefit of increased spin and control. With that said, now over the next month or so comes the practice time to really dial them in, something I'm really looking forward to.

Fairways & Greens to all

My first was the limited edition SM10 64 degree. It felt so solid, like I could do anything. Picked up my second, this SM11 56S for harder turf. The thing is, I feel better about making proper contact and taking the right divot with this even in soft conditions. I'm in the PNW, so it's almost always soft here. Time will tell, but I feel very good about these two pickups and confidence is probably the most important part of wedge play.

I’m a long time Vokey wedge player and my friends are amazed for a 12.7 index how I spin/control the ball on my approach shots. I have tried other wedges and none compare to Vokey.

I had an outstanding fitting experience with Austin Clarke (from Titleist) at South Hills CC in Pittsburgh, Pa on October 24, 2025. I currently have the SM10’s and upgrade every two years when the new SM wedges come out. Austin did not have the SM11’s at that time; so he fitted me with my SM10’s along with his demo SM10’s. I currently have 50.12F; 54.12D; 58.14K each 1/2 inch short and 2 degrees flat. This is the first time someone from Titleist fitted me for my wedges.

After the fitting Austin suggested keeping my 50 & 54 the same and changing my 58 to 58.10S with the suggestion to use my 54 in the sand in lieu of my 58 and that my 58 with less bounce and the S grind will be for more workable shots around the greens. Austin also suggested changing all 3 wedges from 2 degrees flat to 3 degrees flat.

I agreed with suggestions and Austin ordered my wedges when they became available in January and they were delivered to my Pro Shop two weeks later (see photo). Can’t wait for the weather to break in Pittsburgh to swing them!!! Austin also switched me from the ProV1 to the ProV1x and plan to order / play them this Spring.

I plan on getting fitted this year for wedges this year. Currently have sm5…time for an upgrade.

I bought two SM11 wedges on 2/19/26, a 54 degree D12 and a 58 degree s10.
My prior wedges were SM10, a 54 08m and a 58 08m.
I switched because the SM10’s dug too much into the turf unless I opened the face a lot
The mist noticible difference was hitting the ball with a square face and the flight was lower and more controllable, especially with the 54.
The feel was nimble, closer to my T150 PW and less clunky than the SM10.
I was not fitted for these wedges, it’s been a long time since a Titleist fitter has come to Western North Carolina and I am leary of the employees at the one golf shop in town. So, I did the wedge slector, trying different variables and did a lot of research online.
In the one round that I’ve played the SM11’s, the most significant shot was hitting a chip across a big green to the pin. I was able to land it 2/3rds of the way to the hole and my ProV1 took one bounce and stopped 2 feet from the hole for an easy up and down. This is a shot that has frustrated me many times as I would either hit it thin or chunk the ball.
I think the improved flight will help me shave strokes and lower my strokes gained on my short game.

Replaced my sand wedge and lob wedge (identical specs, 54S bent to 55 degrees, 1 degree flat, 60T 1 degree flat). Haven’t gotten enough rounds/ reps on my Vokey pitching wedge or gap wedge to replace just yet (though I wish I could)

They’re freshies so obviously they have a ton more spin. Biggest difference is the flight window (much lower with more spin which I love). Haven’t tested them too much out of the rough just yet, but fair to say that I can trust they’ll come out with enough spin and not too knuckly

Most important thing I think is to get fit into the right grind/ loft so you can trust the wedge to help your natural stroke. The tech continues to evolve with each subsequent generation!

SM11 54° F Grind – Raw

I’ve been gaming a mix of older Vokeys SM6 (54°) and SM9 (48°). I’ll be honest, the early photos of the SM11 didn’t do much for me, so I hesitated. But my current wedges are getting close to retirement, so I decided to grab the 54° as a trial club before committing to a full setup.

I moved from an M grind in my 54° to the F grind, and the difference on longer approach shots has been significant. I tended to need more bounce on fuller swings, and the F grind delivers that. I wasn’t fit specifically for the SM11, but I had been fit for the SM10s recently enough to know my specs:
• 0.5° flat
• Project X 6.5
• +3 wraps

Flight is noticeably lower and more penetrating; a big plus for me as a naturally high ball hitter (for reference: 170 ball speed and 100’+ apex with driver). The 54° now produces a flatter, more forward window that holds its line well compared to a lot of mishit shots with my 54° M grind.

Feel-wise, the SM11 strikes a really nice balance - soft but still responsive. The raw finish (no plating) seems to enhance that sensation. Aesthetically and performance-wise, it would blend seamlessly with just about any iron set. I’ve hit the current Titleist lineup, and it would pair well with anything from a 620 MB to a T350.

This 54° is primarily a full-shot club for me, probably 85% of its use is approach shots inside the 80- 100 yard range. The F grind gives it a very iron-like turf interaction and adds some forgiveness when the strike isn’t perfect. It especially shines in that 50–75 yard “tweener” range — lower face contact keeps the flight down in a really controlled way. But for finesse shots that require and face manipulation are almost completely out of the picture.

I bought it as a test club, but it’s earned its spot. I fully expect to add a 50° and a 60° (likely M grind) to round out the setup and add some versatility around the greens.

Overall, I am very impressed.

Just wrapped up my fitting at the TPI Oceanside event. Louis did a great job with me again today. We did SM10’s last fall during my T series iron fitting. We stayed the same in gap and lob but changed the sand from 56.10S to 56.14F. The gap still 52.08F but changed the shaft to match the graphite irons. The lob stayed at 60.06K. The technology changes in SM11 should give me a little better spin and consistency. Looking forward to putting them in play when they get here. I would have never picked the 56.14F without seeing the results from a proper fitting. Low chips, open faced spinners, and bunker shots were all better for me with this grind.

Great fitting with Steve Creekmore at Anthem Country Club. I love my new SM11 wedges.

Although I really liked my fitter, the new computer deal with trackman recommended grinds I normally don't play, I have played 4 or 5 rounds with them now and I'm not very satisfied. I'm going back for a refit and likely won't use the wedge app deal... Used a 54d and 58m, the app recommended I got 54s and 58d, which I thought was kind of odd but I decided to try it. Not for me, hopefully others have had better experiences, but I'm glad I'm going back to get refit.
