Sub 70 287 ウェッジ

The heads are the same basic forging, but the Tour Grind has relief ground into the heel and trailing edge and carries less effective bounce. That keeps the leading edge low when you open the face. The standard version has a fuller sole with more bounce, which is more forgiving for square-faced deliveries and softer turf.

Sub 70 covers the full scoring range, roughly 50 through 60 degrees, so you can build a gap, sand, and lob setup entirely from the 287 line. Because every wedge is built to order, you can also request loft and lie adjustments when you buy instead of bending them after the fact.

Forged, from soft carbon steel. That is a big part of the appeal at this price, since most wedges under $130 are cast. Feel is soft and dense at impact, and the carbon steel is easy for a club builder to bend if your specs change later.

The Vokey line offers more loft and grind combinations, decades of tour validation, and easier resale. On actual shots, the gap is much smaller than the price difference suggests. The 287 spins plenty, feels arguably softer thanks to the forging, and costs a lot less. If you want maximum grind options, buy the Vokey. If you want 90 percent of the performance for a fraction of the money, the 287 holds up.

Probably not. Lower bounce punishes steep, diggy deliveries, which are common at higher handicaps, and most weekend players rarely open the face anyway. The standard 287 with its fuller sole is the safer pick. Choose the Tour Grind only if you know your delivery is shallow or you genuinely play a lot of open-faced shots.
