THREE WINS IN FOUR WEEKS ON PGA TOUR FOR VOKEY LOW BOUNCE K PLAYERS
- Robert MacIntyre's victory with his WedgeWorks 60.06K lob wedge makes it three wins in four weeks on the PGA TOUR for Vokey Design WedgeWorks Low Bounce K players, with the grind also being used by the winners of the PGA Championship and Wells Fargo Championship.
- The low bounce K was also used by this week’s winners on the DP World Tour, Korn Ferry Tour and Korean Tour.
- Featuring 6 degrees of bounce, the Low Bounce K was born out of Master Craftsman Bob Vokey and longtime Vokey Tour Representative Aaron Dill’s collaboration with players on the PGA TOUR and across the worldwide professional tours.
- It provides players the versatility required to open the face and hit higher, softer shots off tight lies around the green while offering forgiveness out of the bunker due to the grind’s sole width.
