How much bounce do you have on your sand wedge?

Trying to decide between the 256.10 and the 256.14... My current one, which works great out of bunkers, is 14 I guess (http://www.titleist.com/historical_clubs/details.asp?id=62).

Wonder if that's like the Vokeys. Love my LW (260.04).

I've got 12deg of bounce on my 56deg wedge, started with a 14deg and had it ground down. I like 12 since it allows me to play in a wide variety of conditions and play with the blade slightly open to add a bit more loft when I need it.

I think you've got a shallower angle of attack (more sweeping) right? So I'd go with the 256.14, if you want you can always have it ground down later.

Yeah, I do. And frankly I didn't find myself using my current SW for a whole lot besides bunker shots anyway. I'm hoping adding another Vokey will free me up to use it in more situations.
