Currently gaming mp5 irons and sm6 48/8, 56/10 and 60/10 wedges. 
 

Several questions:

is it me or does it seem folks are playing more bounce these days?

Should I get one 12 bounce and one 8 bounce for my 56 and 60?

prefer non matching pitching wedges, anyone have feedback for mizuno, Taylormade or Cleveland wedges?

My 54 is high bounce and my 58 is low bounce.  I like to have one of each.

As far as non-matching wedges, I currently have MP20 mb’s in the bag and the Vokey wedges fit right in with them.

up until i sold all my old stuff and bought new stuff lol

my vokey wedges went 50/8, 56/12 and a 56/8, the 56/12 was bent to 55 

now i have cleveland zipcore cbx's  52/11,  56/10 and 60/10 

i also just picked up the set of kirkland's which was 52/10, 56/10 and 60/8    

i'm thinking of getting the bounce on the 52's taken down to a 8  the other wedges i'd keep the same

It is what it is

Bounce is only one part of the equation for a proper fit for a wedge.

In response to the original question, it's best to get fitted and see what is recommended for you.  I made the mistake years ago of being an armchair fitter and I got quite a lot of it wrong.  Although one of the wedges I got from that is solid gold and I won't give it up for almost anything.   The others, they just weren't a great fit and when I had people look at my swing, I got much better fitted clubs.

    • Day 252: worked on chipping for a while with my chipping net. Worked on low, medium, and high shots. Productive session. 
    • Day 180 - 2025-03-29 Not a long time today, but I got my five minutes in jumping and doing some work on the downswing.
    • I’ll just stick to the basics for now - got enough to work on… this is my home practice range. The little clearing in about the center of the photo is roughly 200 yards.

    • Played Musgrove Mill today. 72.3/155. +9 for 15 official holes as 2 holes are closed, and the par 5 16th plays as a converted par 3. We played the first three holes over to finish 18, and parred 1 and2 amped bogeyed 3. The good: hit every fairway. 1 less than normal for the converted par 3, but the second time I have done that this year. My sand wedge approach on 10 after a monster drive hit the pin in the back left corner hit he pin and spun away to 9’, and I missed the putt.   The great: hit 8 GIR and 7 were inside 10’. Needs work: Missed every birdie putt. No lip-outs. Just struggled on fast greens. Three-putted the par-5 9th with the pin on the back tier and jut missed hitting my approach to the proper level and it spun all the way to the front of the green.
