Are these wedges exactly the same except for the spin milled face? I found the sm2 heads to be smaller and a hair lighter which I hated. If someone can help that'd be awesome!

Hi Johnny Boy,
The short answer to your question ":Are these wedges exactly the same except for the spin milled face?" is an emphatic NO!
Every generation of Vokey Designed Spin Milled Wedges is different to the one before. Precisely designed and manufactured using proprietary Spin Milled technology, Vokey SM5 wedges provide a distinct performance advantage through new, deeper TX3 grooves, tour-driven shapes and the industry’s most extensive range of bounce and grind options - more than 20!
Vokey SM5 wedges feature a more compact and balanced profile with three new finish options – Tour Chrome, Gold Nickel and Raw Black.
The best way to find out about the differences between the models you describe above and the new Vokey SM5 Wedges is to visit a Titleist fitter or stockist and compare and contrast the playability, shapes and finishes.
Let us know if you need any help finding a Titleist stockist or a forthcoming Titleist Demo Day near you- we'll be only to glad to point you in the right direction.
Good golfing
-Dave
Thanks for getting back to me Dave.Im in the hunter valley in NSW so any demo days would be awesome as the only "stockists" carry very limited inventory and never any to demo. Ive asked the guys whats the difference between the 2 but they couldnt shed any light,so i thought id try the source. After a bit of trial and error with the spin mills ive realised that the 200 series seems to suit my game as some SM have different profiles,bounces and grinds. But then i found that info above which i thought confirmed that the 256.10 and sm56.10 {sm1} were identical except for the grooves and the milling. i thought considering its the same bounce and same thin sole one could presume its the same profile/shape. Pretty sure the first SM came out in 2005 which is not long after the 200 series. So is that model SM the same shape as the 200 series? You say no,but titleist PDF implies it is. Thanks for your time Dave.
