    I recently got fitted for a blended set of T100's and T250's. I quit golf for quite a while and still have my Cleveland RTX-3 wedges and love them although they are almost a decade old. They are in like new condition. I am not loving the T100 PW and have a decision to make. I have had the opportunity to hit some Vokey wedges and really like them. I'm thinking about going with a Vokey 45* with the idea of eventually switching over from my Clevelands to all Vokeys. I'm not sure how much technology has actually changed in 10 years but I imagine I would be very happy with a new set of Vokeys. I currently play 50,54 and 58 degree wedges so it will be a bit pricey to switch over with 4 new wedges. My next question is I was fitted with the Project X 6.5 shaft in my T series irons. Should I go with the same shaft or bump down to a 6.0 in the wedges? Any thoughts would be appreciated. I know one of the answers will be go see a fitter which I just did and won't have that opportunity again for a while. Just looking for some opinions at this point. Thanks

    You’ll get many opinions. The rule of thumb is how you would use the 45. If primarily full swings, use the iron shaft. If finesse shots, the recommendation leans towards a heavier wedge shaft.

    You are spot on about ideally getting fit, especially if doing the full wedge swap. Yes, technology has greatly changed, even on the last several variations of Vokey SM models. As for shafts, the one that will matter the most will be your PW and maybe also the GW as those will be more full fairway shots. Others are “feel” clubs so matching what feels good to you is the key. I play light graphite irons (currently the MMT) so I play AMT Red light steel in my wedges as a good compromise to my preferred steel in wedges but not as drastic a transition from my full irons. Good luck. I know you will love the Vokeys.
