RE: Bounce and fitting

Hello Agranza. Whatever loft wedge you choose to use in the bunker, go with .12 or.14 bounce, and because you're a "picker" use the .o8 everywhere else. As you eluded to, the extra bounce will help you in the bunker,particularly f you come in shallow.To me, .14 bounce is a bit much, but I'm a digger not a picker. My wedges are only .02 apart; 54.10S and 58.08M. I use both wedges in bunkers, both wedges on pitch and runs, and shots around the green.
The two distinct differences are; I can open the face of the 58.08 a little easier and I like it off really tight lies, and the 54.10S sets up square so it's great for full and 3/4 shots from 100 yards in.

Personal preference goes a long way, i tend to take shallow divots and have always preferred high bounce on the 56 and low bounce on the 60. I use the 56 for bunker shots and probably 75% of shots inside 50 yards. I will use the 60 in bunkers only if the sand is hard like clay. I have played the 56.14F and the 60.04L if you like the 56 for a variety of shots try the 56.12D and go 60.08M. If you want the 60 gor bunker shots either go 60.14K or 60.12D and then go 56.08M - i like having extreme bounce differences on my short game shots - some prefer the same bounce and use loft as their deciding factor.
