Hi Guys. Just a quick question that could save me a lot of money. I have a club gap on full shots i can't get through. It's from a 46* PW to a 54* and i dont want to buy a 50*. I prefer to have 3 wedges because with 4, i would find i have too many options.
My question is, how would the bounce angle change if I bend my 54*/13 to a 52*? I am conscious that with 13* of bounce, it is easy to hit a 54* just as my high bounce lob wedge is easy to hit.

Thanks

The bounce'll get less. Naively I'm guessing about 2° less...

Yep, assuming it does indeed have 13 degrees of bounce, then it will change to 11 degrees of bounce. The difference will probably be unnoticable.

Why dont you just buy a 52 instead? But virtually it wouldnt make too much of a difference
