    My favorite is the 6 degree low bounce K. I started using it in SM10 and was fit for it again in SM11. It handles relatively tight lies but the wide sole seems to get through thick lies and fluffy bunkers well too. Of course, this is just me and the great thing about Vokeys is there are many options for everyone.

    SM11 60-04T. It actually has more bounce than advertised.

    My combination under SM10 was 58-12D (57*) and 60-06K.

    The new SM11 58-12K set to 56* is much more versatile.

    I’ve had the M grind in the bag for a few years now. It’s been a great club but it’s about time to replace it. I like it because of its versatility and the confidence it inspires.
    That said, the low bounce K and the new A+ grind look appealing. I’ve heard the A+ is similar to the M but a little quicker through the turf.

    When I do put the 60 in play it has the D grind because I have a fairly steep swing. Most of my rounds are played with the 58 now and that wedge has the M grind. I really like the versatility the M grind provides. Can't go wrong with either really.

    60 04T. Firm, wet sand bunkers and tight lies. I had an unusual day in a tournament last weekend. After 9 holes I had 4 sandy up and downs out of 5 chances.

    I use my 56M (bent to 55) as my main scoring club around the green, but this 60 is money for me when I need it.

    I am looking for an outdoor setting to get fitted for 11’s. I want to at least try the new K grind.

    I have the 60K and I love it. It’s my go-to club for bunker shots.

    60-04T. So versatile and suits our course conditions perfectly.

    My solid greenside combo since 2024 has been 58-12D (57*) and 60-06K. I also carried PM Grind 64/10 and am working on WW 64T. 60-04T is my "Sunday bag" choice. I've been using a WW 44F as a 9 iron replacement (42*). 52-12F (50*) is my "PW."

    The 60-06K is locked in. Intense comparison between it and the 60-04T did the trick. I just added a 48-10F (set to 46*) to fill the gap between the 44F and 52-12F (50*).

    I used the M grind in my 60 for years, but just recently switched to a 60 12D, and I love it. I live in PA and the course conditions can greatly vary between courses here. Because I am a lefty, I don't find myself in as many bunkers as others, so haven't had much testing with it out of sand yet.

    I am looking to purchase a 60 K grind though - I've heard great things about it for tight lies, and folks seem to really like them.

    I played K grind (58-14K) bent 2* strong between 2019-2023. Was alternating between K and 58-12D (56*) between 2023-2024. Between mid 2024 until 2025, my go to combo was 58-12D (57*) and 60-06K. Where D wins out over K grind is open face or flop shots. Once I figured out the idiosyncrasies of T grind, I've been using 60-04T for greenside bunkers and flop shots.

    If you tend to be a digger, both K and low-K are great. D and T are better for flop shots but about equal to the two Ks from soft lies.

    I got fit for the SM11 60*S for firm and lush conditions. Oil can finish

    I recently added the 60 K* and it is literally a cheat code. With the lead edge grind and the low bounce make this wedge a weapon..

    I briefly tried out a 58K* set to 59*. Great out of soft sand but 60-06K is better off hard lies.

    I also had 58V. Fantastic in soft bunkers. Not as good as D grind off firm lies.

    I used to love my M grind, especially because I liked being able to open the face around the greens. But after taking part in a short game clinic and getting properly fit, I ended up with a low bounce K grind and honestly it made everything way easier for me. Bunkers, tight lies, little shots around the green — it just feels so much more forgiving and confidence inspiring. I still think the M is awesome, but the K definitely surprised me.

    T Grind. Love it. I can open that thing up so flat, I can easily flop off fairway lies. I strictly use it as an oh shi...!! club.

    Anything from 60 and out, I'll use my 54.10S, and 50-30yds is my 60. 60-50 is 54 or 60 depending on what I'm feeling at the time. I used to use 60 at 40 and 54 at 50yds but I started hitting my wedges longer a year ago, and a 50yd with my 54 is harder to control now, since I'm only taking the club back to like 8 o'clock.

    Mostly chip with the 54 straight up, and only chip with the 60 if I need it to land softer and open up more than 54. Other than that it's the club if I have to get it up and over something and land and stop on a time. The T Grind allows me to do that from any lie on the golf course.

    For me S grind is very limited. It's great for pitch shots and chipping but leaves a lot to be desired in sand. Doesn't lend itself too well for flop shots.

    For what it's worth, I have a pic of the 60-12D and 60-04T alongside. They perform equally well in soft sand and most pitching. Where T grind wins out is a severe downhill lie on hard pan.... picks the ball better.

    Not a tremendous difference between 56-08 M (55*) and 56-12D (54*). I use the M and 60-12D in place of 56-12D (54*) for unknown course conditions.

    My carry bag is shown. 56-12D (54*) for a sand wedge and 60-04T for lob wedge.

    For unknown course conditions, replace the 56-12D with 56-08M (55*) and 60-12D (59*). There are a couple courses where I add the PM Grind 64/10 ("Phil 64"). The images are below.

    Here's my complete arsenal. The left image is my extended wedge setup. I also optimize the bounces on my wedges. I'm using a Wedgeworks 44F (42*) as a "9 iron". My "pitching wedge" is a 50-12F set to 48*. It also can be used for longer bunker shots. Sand wedge is a 56-12D set to 54* and club length of 35". These are quite versatile. The 58-06K is probably THE most versatile lob wedge. 2nd place is 60-04T but there is a difference of 5 yards in full swing distance vs LBK. In the upper right corner is a 3 wedge setup with a local vendor's 60/10 (59*), a Callie style full face wedge. The bottom right is for course condition and would replace the 58-06K.
