I ordered a set about a month and a half ago. I’ve gotten 5 or 6 delay delay emails. Latest one was end of January arrival.
I’ve been playing hi toes the past 3 seasons and love them. Was a big Vokey guy before. Give em a run!

If it’s any consolation i had (broke it tonight) the md1’s and really liked them.
but i have a problem. Might be the 8 or 9th broken wedge of the season
TFixer5 it started at an early age
I haven’t played a mg3 but if it is similar to the mg2s, I can’t recommend them enough. Played the TW grinds all year with no intention to change in 2022.
Here’s my opinion after going through a fitting with them at the Kingdom. If was iffy about them for the first few rounds. But as I’ve gotten used to them I’ve fallen ba j in love with them. They’ll be staying in the bag for awhile. The clips below are posts I made on another site…
“know we’ve posted a lot of of pics and notes on all the cool stuff we saw but I wanted to get into the time I get to spend with the MG3’s and a little about how I hope they change my game. I range from a 2-5 handicap depending on time of the year and what kind of tinkering I’m doing. I have played the game for about 25 years. I’ve always had pretty good hands which is a blessing and a curse for a short game. My missed is normally always fat and on the toe. My current wedge setup is below.
-Vokey SM8’s
46F Bent to 45. Steel Fiber 110 S straight in.
50/12F w/Modus 125 Wedge Shaft
54/12D bent to 55 w/Modus 125 Wedge Shaft.
60/12 D Modus 125 Wedge
I’m a 100% club ho and try just about every wedge that comes out. Over the years I’ve played them all. But I’m the end I go back to Vokey. They’re consistent and I like the more classic look. The MG3’s grabbed my eye as soon as I saw them on the forums for the first time. Then I got to see one in person at PGA SS and was even more intrigued. They just looked so good!!! The shapes were traditional with a incredible lines. I knew right away I wanted to try them. I actually had a fitting scheduled until I got the email that I was selected for this experience. Once I got the email I knew I had to make it happen! After hitting a few balls with my current gamers Greg put the MG3’s in my hand. These wedges are . My spin was up. The descent angle of the ball was better as well. The ball flight was great. But the thing that impressed me the most was the turf interaction. These wedges glide through the turf and do not dig! The CG and weighting has been moved up and out of the heel which makes them feel much more balanced and stable through the shot. The sound and feel is also much improved over the MG2. I’ve always wanted a wedge with higher bounce that sits flat on ground at address. Greg and his team have made that happen without having to get a custom grind which is $$$ and tough to get your hands on It allowed my to hit a bigger variety of shots especially with my 54. After running them through the gauntlet on the range we went to the short game area. Things got even better down there! We took a few different bounce options and my gamers and dialed things in. The chip shots were drop and stop from a variety of conditions. Again the sole set perfectly behind the ball for my eyes and glided through the turf without digging. Even on Mis hits the ball was still close to the intended landing area. I was very impressed. At that point I was pretty much sold but wanted to try it in the bunkers. Took the 60 into the bunkers and started with short shots to a tucked pin. I was able to get the ball up quick over about a 4ft lip and onto the green. When the balls hit the green they had a controlled spin and very little roll out past my target. After the bunker work I knew I wanted them no matter the price!
The combo i went with is below.
46 bent to 45 with steel fiber 110 CW
50/8, 54/13, 60/12
bounce with Modus 125 Wedge
Went 1* Flat and 1/4” long. Can’t wait to get them in hand and will post more. Please ask anything I may have missed!”
The more I get used to the wedges the more I like them. The 46, 50 and 60* continue to be the best for me. I have struggled the most figuring out if I want the 54* bent to 55* or the 56* bent to 55. I like the look from the top better on the 54 but from a turf interaction and playability stand point the the 56* has been better for me.
I’d also advise going with the higher bounce in your 60* as well. If you’re going with high bounce on the 54* you’d probably do well with the high bounce 60. Especially out of the bunkers.
after this pic was taken I ended up switching to the 54* HB instead of 56* bent to 55*.
agadawg1717 Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts and experience with these. Much appreciated!!
agadawg1717 I remember a time that I bought 2 of your has been wedge sets in back to back years. Were they OG Vokey tvd blanks then maybe SM5's or a K grind? I can't remember if you had the indigo's or just the plain jane sm5's that I tried to buy backups for. Years later I ended up with a ton of AM stamped wedges that probably were yours at some point from a completely different dude but the price was right to try different grinds!
Putterho yes!! I think that was the beginning of a lifelong friendship! TVD’s we’re sick!
So the MG2s got me with the little elastomer insert for "perimeter weighting" which I knew was BS, but I love "tech".
Please tell me that the MG3s are still forgiving-esque and I'm sold.
Other question is for the 50, what did the fit reveal about the move to go with lower bounce? I've always told myself because I'm steep I need to go high bounce, but looking for an excuse to go back to a more normal bounce on the 50.
I just got a set of the TW MG3s and played a round. Feel is great (I'm using a Srixon XV), and I absolutely love how it sets up at address. I've been using a 60 with too little bounce recently, and the TW doesn't really dig at all. Aiming to have these be my 2022 wedges, and so far it's staying in the bag.
I am really interested in switching out of my Vokey set, my only concern is the Lob wedge.
I play a 58/8 M grind currently, do you feel you can open up a 58 or 60 with the grind they offer?
