Wedge Lofts

[BushFinder]

I realise that different sets come with different lofts, but what sort of lofts roughly are the following wedges?

Pitching wedge
Sand
Gap
Lob

Thanks in advance.

I would say
Pw 46
Gw 50
Sw 54
Lw 58/60

I have 52 gap
56 sand
60 deg lob wedge
works for me at the minute, low bounce on 60, high bounce on 56 and med bounce on 52.

46 Pitch
52 Gap
54 Sand
60 Lob

Go with Bob's assessment. I have 46 degree in the set then 50, 54, 58. gives me a nice even spread for full shots from 80 yards and plenty of versatility round the greens and out of bunkers etc. However they are variable so be aware of what your set's PW is. If it is 48 then there's no point in getting a 50 gap etc.

MX-19's used to have a 50 deg gap wedge option, so 45 or 46 PW?

mine are
PW - 45
GW - 49
SW - 54
LW - 60 (it was free, won it in a raffle) - I'd like to try a 58

what about bounce, whats normal for each wedge

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Currently got a 47 degree PW, 52 degree wedge (8 degree bounce) 56 degree (12) and 60 degree (6)

 

[CannyFifer]

I've been told a higher bounce for sandwedge but lower bounce for the rest if you are playing links golf but can afford a higher bounce on parkland etc? I may be wrong though.

PW=45
GW=50* (8* Bounce)
SW=54* (11* Bounce)
LW=58* (4* Bounce)

 

[BushFinder]

Thanks for the replys, I decided to get a 50 degree gap wedge!
Got my eye on a vokey!

Good choice!!

i would go for a high bounce sand wedge, medium bounce gap, and low bounce lob wedge
