The Titleist Vokey Prototypes - geogolf - 04-30-2017

Those that remember the late 1990's internet Golf Forums remember the buzz that Vokey wedges gathered. 

Outside of the Cleveland long line of wedges, this was a new player to the game.

If you were REALLY looking for rarity, you looked for Vokey Prototypes. At the time, these commanded top dollar.

Bob Vokey was more of a behind the scenes guy in the 1980's & 1990's ,designing the Founders Club Defense Forged wedges with Harry Taylor.  (he had also worked for Taylor Made in the 1980's- Repair and design)

Bob was initially brought to Titleist to help on the 975D driver and get it on Tour. He recognized himself as more of a 'driver guy'. Once that project was over, they wanted a signature line of wedges.  The rest as they say is history.

Vokey Prototypes are kind of under the radar- as the older ones do not have USGA legal conforming Grooves.  But, you can find really unique grinds and stamps. You can even find older Tour Model Titleist shaped and given the Prototype stamp. 

Best of all, you can find plenty under 50-60 dollars today and have a really cool collectible.  No 2 ever seem to be the same.

One Note - On the 200 series especially, if you love the shape- but get lots of high left shots, try about 1 inch of lead tape, placed vertically out toward the toe. You will see many tour Vokeys with this modification.

Is there somewhere a guide on how to do the lead tape modification properly btw?
