Most forgiving wedges ?

Perhaps it's me, but I don't see wedges as being judged on "forgiveness, as you don't play them full swing normally. Bounce and how the club feels balance wise, yes but forgiveness no.
Even on a shorter swing, a shot not coming out of the middle on a bladed wedge won't be as effective as a shot not coming out of the middle of a cavity back wedge.
Why not get any help that's available?

I defo think it is more about selecting the correct club and method for a shot than hoping your wedges are going to bail you out. Chipping is a confidence shot, any doubt and you are probably going to struggle. I have Mizuno wedges, I tried the Cleveland's, but found the Mizzies were a little softer off the face, this means you can use a little more speed. One of my wedges is a ground 60. You can't go anywhere near softish ground with that, one false move and you are down to the drainage system...........on the other hand, out of lush deep greenside grass and clag, it's brilliant. For all my other stuff I use a 56 with mid bounce (10).
