I have played a V grind for years...it is essentially similar to M but with more bounce...

Simple!

I think you should! It’s a limited release and it has more forward bounce than the M. I had the pleasure of talking with Aaron Dill in person not very long ago. The M I’m sure has a max bounce of 8 while the V has 10. Both have a C shaped grind for enhanced versatility. But because the M grind is so common and you could get your hands on one very easily versus the V I’d get a V grind. If you like the M and just seeing if something is better if you don’t like the V you could always trade it in towards an M and just know for future cases going forward. If I’m not mistaken the sole may be a tad wider or the same as the M plus more bounce so it’ll protect you more. Nothing wrong with a little extra forgiveness.

So hard to help you without the variables being answered. Wedges are tough, and mostly a preference thing. Get fit buy a guru, not a salesman.

So I have a simple question:

I currently have the M grind in my 58. I love this set up out of the sand, but not so much from grass. No surprisingly, my technique from the sand is better than from the grass.... Anyway, I'm about to purchase new wedges. Should I give the V a whirl? Will I notice a difference in the sand?

which wedge would you say has more versatility around the greens, the 60 V or 60 High Bounce M? I currently use the 60 M with higher bounce but would prefer something with a little more versatility on open face shots

Hi guys! I'm trying to figure out my new wedge order. I'd love advice on grinds. What setup makes more sense 1. 56.08M & 60.10V 2. 56.10V & 60.08M

Please let me know your views and/or experiences. I have not heard of many people playing a SW in a V grind....

Great question

In order to give you the best advice, we have a couple of follow-up questions.

1) What lofts/bounce/grinds do you currently play?

2) Do you have a shallow angle of attack or a steeper angle of attack?

3) What are the conditions like at your home course? Firm, soft, both?

4) What loft do/will you use for a majority of your greenside bunker shots? Would you consider yourself a strong bunker player or need a little extra help in the bunker?

The V Grind is for players seeking increased bounce on square face shots as well as increased versatility from enhanced heel, toe and trailing edge relief. The V Grind is best for players with a steep angle of attack.

The M Grind is for players seeking low to medium bounce on square face shots as well as increased versatility from enhanced heel, toe and trailing edge relief. The M grind is best for players with shallow to neutral angles of attack.

A great resource for wedge selection can be found at the following link:

In the end, the only way to truly get the best performing wedges for your swing is to hit them side by side with a Titleist fitter. Unfortunately, since the V Grind is a WedgeWorks wedge, there are fewer available demo options for this model.
Your local Titleist fitter can contact us at Team Titleist to secure a demo V Grind wedge to use during a fitting if you give them some advance warning.

Hopefully, this helps and thank you for your question.

If it was me I would go option 1. The M grind is for slider swings and would most likely help in sand and/or maximum distance for full swing (not steep digger swings). If you plan on swinging full shots with your 60 then the V grind may be more versatile.
