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.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
    • No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
