I don’t know what it is about copper and golf equipment, but it’s definitely a thing.
As far back as almost anyone can remember, PING started with their beryllium copper wedges, and while they don’t make them anymore, we still have copper underlays, faux copper finishes on irons and wedges, and even copper tips. in some mini drivers.
My guess is that, for whatever reason, golfers love copper.
Vokey returns to the hut
For his part, Vokey has been out of the copper game for a while, but as his own Wedge formation SM10 rolls into Year 2, the company is heading for the barrel and hitting the oil can.
What do you think?
I won’t go so far as to say that Vokey’s last take on copper is The best ending
but, with a slightly milky look I’d call the “Slate Blue” of the copper wedges, it’s damn hot.
About Vokey Oil Can wedges
There are a few things you should know about the Vokey SM10 Oil Can wedges.
- This oil can is a PVD based finish that aims to provide a rich copper color without giving off a ton of glare. Vokey says the new finish is durable, matching the standards of his other finishes.
- Vokey oil can drops are being billed as “limited edition” and the expectation is that they will sell out quickly.
- All 27 Vokey loft, bounce and grind combinations are available in both right and left handed versions. Bob Vokey is Canadian so he tracks.
If you need help finding the right solution, Vokey delivers a guide to its wedge grinders. There is one more wedge selector tool. We always recommend one personal adjustment where possible.
The rest of the pack of oil cans
As part of the Oil Can experience, the stock shaft is a custom Project X wedge shaft featuring a brushed steel finish.
(A quick aside: If this is how we’re doing the total package now, I can’t wait until the Vokey guys remember it’s time for Slate Blue again.)
The stock cap on the Vokey SM10 Oil Can wedges is a custom copper colored Golf Pride Z-Grip.
