Bending Wedge from 49° to 56°

[Groundhog34]

They were thinking "make the sale". Nothing was said about changing the bounce. A friend mentioned "bounce" to me and that is what motivated the original post. The same salesperson sold me a 4 crossover/hybrid when I was looking for a 5 and bent it to a 5 a couple of months ago. It seems to perform well. How much was the bounce changed on it? It is tough being left handed.

I’m not a club designer, but it would seem that the wider the sole that contacts the ground the more adverse a significant increase in bounce would be.

For a wide sole sure-out wedge shape, that trailing edge of the sole has got to impact the height of the leading edge a whole bunch.  Apart from playing it off my back foot, I can’t imagine a shot off a tighter lie.
