Golfers love wedge spin. Put two wedges on a launch monitor and if one produces 7,200 rpm while another produces 6,800, it’s easy to assume the first one gives you more control. But if the goal is to hit wedge…
MyGolfSpy's 2026 wedge test evaluated 15 wedges over 11,400 shots, concluding that maximum spin does not automatically translate to superior control or proximity to the hole. While the Performance Golf ONE.1 registered the highest dry spin at 7,217 rpm, the New Level SPN V3 finished closer to the pin and ranked as the most accurate wedge overall.
The test highlighted the importance of consistent carry distance and moisture management. The Titleist Vokey SM11 was named the best wedge for spin in 2026 due to consistent spin numbers in both dry and wet conditions, whereas other models lost over half their spin in the wet.
