The V Grind is for players seeking a wedge with a grind that provides increased bounce on square face shots, and enhanced relief for open faced shots. For full shots with a square face, the V Grind has high measured bounce forward on the sole, best for players with a steeper angle of attack. However, when the face of the V Grind is opened, the wedge produces increased versatility through heel, toe, and trailing edge sole relief. This wedge is ideal for normal to soft conditions and for the player with steeper angle of attack.
“One request we receive on tour from time to time is, 'I love the sole of the M grind, but I’d like some more bounce from the fairway without sacrificing the versatility I need when greenside. 'It got me thinking about one of my original grinds. The V Grind is one design that provides more bounce forward on the sole, with enhanced relief in the heel, trailing edge and toe. It’s a really versatile wedge around the green.” - Master Craftsman Bob Vokey

Who is it for?
The V Grind is great for players playing in medium to soft soil conditions, bunkers with more sand, or players with steeper deliveries who still like to open the face when hitting shots around the green.
What is the difference between the WW V Grind and the SM9 T Grind?
The grinds both look very similar visually due to the narrower forward sole (towards the leading edge and aggressive heel, toe and trailing edge relief. The V Grind plays to a higher effective bounce than the T Grind. The V Grind is better suited to players who have a neutral to steep angle of attack around the green and on fuller swings, where the T grind suits players with a shallow delivery.
