Career Wyness began his career at Aberdeen,

Heart of Midlothian Wyness's excellent performances in front of goal earned him a move to Heart of Midlothian in the summer of 2003. Wyness found it hard to break into the Hearts team and was only occasionally used by Levein. He fared better under Craig Levein's successor, John Robertson, who had also managed him at Caley Thistle, but when Robertson was replaced by George Burley in 2005 Wyness once again found himself out of favour. He returned on loan to Caley Thistle and he signed a pre-contract agreement in January 2006 to rejoin the Inverness club on a permanent basis. In late May 2006, once his Hearts contract expired, he signed a two-year deal with Caley Thistle.

Record Wyness holds the Inverness Caledonian Thistle scoring record, with a total of 101 goals which stands until Billy McKay scored his 102nd against Airdrie on 26, July 2023. He netted his 100th goal for Inverness against his first club, Aberdeen.

St. Mirren In May 2008, Wyness agreed a two-year deal to join St Mirren. Wyness scored the first goal for the Buddies at their new ground named St. Mirren Park, in a match against Kilmarnock. Wyness netted a debut goal a day later in the 4–1 win away to Dunfermline Athletic that put Queens top of the table. Wyness returned to St. Mirren after making seven appearances and scoring two goals for Queens.

Recent career On 25 January 2010, St. Mirren announced Wyness was free to find himself another club, and he was later released from his contract. Wyness then signed for Second Division club Dumbarton until the end of the 2009–10 season.

Wyness signed for Elgin City during the 2012 summer transfer window. He scored his first goal for the club in an incredible 7–5 home loss in the first round of the 2012–13 Ramsden's Cup against Arbroath.

After Elgin, he went on to play for Buckie Thistle in the 2015/16 season, and then signed for Huntly F.C. in 2016.
