Hello I have a query regarding SW's and bounce but I'll give some background first. I recently treated myself to a new set of irons and have now been rethinking my wedges. At the moment I have 45 degree PW, 50 degree, 56 degree and a 60 degree. They are as follows:
45 degree - PW with the set
50 degree - 48 degree vokey which has been altered to a 50 degree
56 degree - very old sw that came with an old set. (no idea what the bounce is on it)
60 degree - vokey with 4 degrees bounce.
I'm looking to change my old sand wedge but have a few questions:
1)What degree bounce should I look for on a 56 degree SW?
2)Should I use my 60 degree out of the sand instead and is 4 degrees ok for this as I would open the face and therefore increase the bounce?
3) what degrees of bounce is needed for the sand and how does this change dependant on the type of sand?
I know a lot of it comes down to personal preference but standard setup figures for bounce and club selection for the sand is what I'm looking for.
Any help most appreciated
