In the market for a used golf wedge? When it comes to getting yourself out of sticky situations on the golf course - whether that’s mud, sand or thick grass, a wedge is a must-have to get you out of a fix. It’s typical for the average golfer to carry up to two or three wedges, but choosing the right one for you can be a confusing decision - especially as there are four main types: a pitching wedge, a gap wedge, a sand wedge and a lob wedge.
The very first place to start is by reading our guide to buying a golf wedge. That will talk you through all the basics and give you some things to consider before making your decision. But that’s not all - at golfclubs4cash we want to take all the hassle out of matching you with your perfect second hand golf club.
So, to save you time, we’ve compiled a list of our ten best-selling wedges so you can take some inspiration from your fellow golfclubs4cash fanatics! Let’s have a look at the winning wedges - which one would you put at number one?
10: Titleist Vokey SM8 Wedge
Straight in at number ten is a firm favourite with golfers all around the world, and it’s the Titleist Vokey SM8 Wedge. Offering a stable and forgiving clubhead, consistent spin and huge versatility, the SM8 feels great in your hands - and with 23 different loft and bounce options across six sole grinds, you’ll find the perfect match for you in this fantastic wedge.
The SM8 isn’t the cheapest of the wedges, but it’s a great investment. If you’re on a budget never fear - we’ve always got plenty of deals on Titleist wedges - pop in and try a few out if you’re local to our Edinburgh or Warrington stores. And if you live further afield, remember we offer a 30-day no-quibble returns policy just in case you change your mind.
9: Titleist Vokey SM7 Wedge
We’re sticking with Titleist Vokey for our ninth most-popular wedge at golfclubs4cash. This time, it’s the SM7’s turn to shine. It’s an all-round fantastic performer, and of course, being made by Titleist you can be sure that it’s going to look and feel great in your hands.
Known for its precision and versatility, the progressive CG design and spin control means that you’ll get better distance control and better accuracy. And, just like the SM8 it comes with a wide range of loft and bounce options, along with grind options. Golfers who rate the Vokey SM7 wedge say that it has a really refined feel to it because of a more solid impact feel and enhanced vibration dampening. Featuring Titleist’s spin-milled grooves for maximum spin, it’s easy to see why it’s a firm favourite with golfers at all levels.
8: Cleveland RTX ZipCore Wedge
Cleveland’s flagship RTX ZipCore wedge is in constant demand at golfclubs4cash. It’s been designed for better players (the lower handicappers) who have a well-developed short game. It’s a user-friendly muscleback wedge that gives a great deal of control, performance and versatility.
With plenty of loft and bounce options, this is a high-spinning and soft-feeling wedge that feels stable in your hands, with the only potential downside being the lower number of sole grind options available. Still, it’s a firm favourite with our customers and its position at number eight is all the proof that we need that it’s one of the biggest players in the wedge world!
7: Titleist Vokey SM6 Wedge
We’re back with Titleist again (and… spoiler alert… there are even more still to come). Titleist’s SM6 wedge is the predecessor of the later SM7, SM8 and SM9s, but it’s still a firm favourite among golfers. With some of the more specialised grind options removed, the range is simplified. With impressive trajectory control, spin-milled grooves for maximum spin and control, a progressive centre of gravity for distance control, a solid feel and a variety of lofts and bounces available, newer models may be in hot demand but we think the SM6 has still got it.
6: Titleist Vokey SM5 Wedge
It’s Titleist again! There’s little doubt that when Bob Vokey started designing his now-famous line of wedges, he was certainly onto something. Long before the later SM models hit the golf courses, the 2014 Vokey SM5 was already making waves. A stunning head shape and an amazing number of options on grinds, finishes, shapes and grooves helps players really refine their game. There’s little doubt that Vokey’s family of SM wedges are industry-leading in their innovation and craftsmanship.
A craftsman his whole life, Vokey didn’t start specialising in wedges until he joined Titleist in 1996. From then on, he’s become the world’s leading expert on golf wedge design and it’s fair to say that he’s transformed the market for good with the impact he’s had.
5: Titleist Vokey SM9 Wedge
Moving away from Vokey… just joking… we’re staying right where we were for now! In at number five is the SM9 - the latest of the Vokey SM family. This one takes the forward centre of gravity to new heights for a more controlled ball flight and solid contact. The new grooves are cut right to the edge for exceptional spin and the materials and structure of the SM9s are finely tuned for lower flight and higher spin.
We’ve always got a great range of second hand Vokey SM9 wedges in stock, so keep an eye on our website for the latest additions and grab yourself a bargain.
4: Callaway Jaws MD5 Wedge
Right… let’s move away from Titleist for a second (but we’re not done with them just yet!) to shine the spotlight on Callaway. With lofts up to 64 degrees available, Callaway’s Jaws MD5 Wedge is a surprise entry at number four in our list of best-selling used golf wedges at golfclubs4cash. With a soft feel and a high level of spin, this sleek wedge may be popular but it’s not for everyone - some prefer a straighter, longer leading edge. But for fans of the Jaws MD5, it just about ticks all of the boxes and we find this model in constant demand.
This is the big brother of the Callaway Mack Daddy 4 wedge and it’s definitely got a superior, more mature, premium feel to it.
3: TaylorMade Milled Grind 3 Chrome Wedge
It’s time to put another of golf’s leading brands in the limelight! TaylorMade is one of the biggest golf club manufacturers, and their Milled Grind 3 Chrome Wedge is a very worthwhile occupant of the number three slot on our list of best-selling used golf wedges.
If you crave a consistent ball flight and a very high spin, then this is the wedge for you without a doubt. With a soft, solid feel and ample versatility, this delivers excellent control and is a firm favourite with lower handicappers.
2: Titleist Vokey Design Wedge
Bob’s back again! And this time it’s with his Vokey Design Wedge. This non-spin-milled, older wedge from Vokey Designworks is an enduring favourite and stands up well against the newer models. Although he’s dominated this list of best-selling golf wedges, the Vokey range was pipped to the post by… well, you’ll just have to read on to find out!
1: Cleveland 588 RTX Wedge
Drumroll please! Aaaand… here we are at number one on our list of most popular used golf wedges at golfclubs4cash! And just so that Titleist doesn’t get allll the glory, Cleveland has made it to the top spot with its 588 RTX wedge. This sleek little cavity-backed number is popular for a reason - the Rotex face technology makes for exceptional spin and stopping power. Low handicappers love the innovative groove and face technology, while higher handicappers love the milled face and the spin generated on mishits.
We’ve got plenty of second hand Cleveland 588 RTX wedges in stock at any given time - though you might want to be quick off the mark now we’ve announced it as our best-selling wedge! Download our app to be the first to hear about the latest additions to our range of used wedges.
