SM10 vs SM9

i needed new wedges this season so i found the SM9 on sale in my loft and bounce preference. i bent them a degree and couldnt be happier. i didnt try to SM10 yet.

I usually use my wedges for 2 years and then replace. Hopefully next year they will still have the jet black color. I love the way it looks after some use.

I'm sticking with what is in my bag. I had enough store credit to get an SM10 58-12D. No intents of changing the SM9 54-10S (sitting at 53*). The Wedgeworks 58-06K complements the 58-12D for hard lies.

Just got my custom SM10 (48/52/56) in yesterday. They look amazing and like the setup a little better than the SM9. Stamping was prefect. Anxious to get out this weekend and see the results

I play my wedges 2* upright from the 50* wedge down. PW and 9 iron are 1.5* upright. My 4 wedge setup is a SM9 48-10F bent to 46, SM9 54-10S bent to 52, Wedgeworks 58-06K stock. My 3 wedge setup is SM10 50-12F bent to 48, SM10 58-12D bent to 56. In either case, I use a 64/10 PM Grind. I was playing either a 58-14K or 60-14K bent 2* strong since 2019. I had been using a 50-08F as a pw for about 7 years before 2017. My SM4 lineup was 54-11M, 58-06L and 64-07T. When I played Torrey in 2018, used an SM6 60-12K bent to 57; unfortunately, the hosel broke when I tried to have it bent back to 58 (I keep an SM6 60-12K as a spare and use it with my Dad's clubs). I found out a few years ago I fare better using a 58* wedge for sand. The S grind works better on long bunker shots vs a 52-08F. I can hit long bunker shots. When Titleist changed the M grind to 8* bounce, is when I switched to K grind (it actually works better in both hard and soft sand).

Big big fan of the SM9s, can't justify upgrading just as yet. In the meantime will spend that money on some more lessons.

SM10 a definite winner!

I have 46-10F (44*) and 50-08F SM10. 54-10S and 60-04L SM9. Wedgeworks 58-06K. They all work well.

I have 46-10F (44*), 50-08F, 58-12D (56*) and 60-04T SM10s. Have a Wedgeworks 56-08K and SM9 60-04L. Plus a couple old favorites (SM6 60-12K bent to 58*, which I used at Torrey Pines in 2018 and a PM Grind 64/10).

I got the 60-04T after trading in a “clearance” SM9 48-10F (46*). From the 32H down, my irons and wedges are spaced 6*. 32-38-44-50-56-58-64. I just put in the D grind after a practice session where I noticed it got 10 more yards on a full swing vs the 58-06K.

As far as fitting, I play the 46-10 1.5* upright and anything from 50* to 64* 2* upright. My 8 iron is Project X 5.5. I did a lie board last year.

The L grind is currently at 58* and it gets the same distance as the 58-06K and the SM6.

I’ve played wedge lofts of 46-52-58-64 for 3 years. SM9 48-10F (46*), 54-10S (52*) and 60-14K (58*). Last year simplified my iron setup to 716CB 7 iron (32*) and MB 8 iron (39*). Between 2020-2023, played 695MB 7-9. My “Sunday bag” wedges were 48-56-64.
