I'm looking at either a 60* or a 62* wedge and I was wondering what bounce would be best for me, the rough at my home cause isn't really thick, it is quite easy to get out of, and I want to be able to play flop shots well and maybe even a bit of bunker play with it.

Thanks

get an 8 bounce 60º vokey. if you're playing on a pretty balanced, not so thick surface, 8 will be good. 4 is harder to manage.

Get 10* bounce and that will still make it easy to hit flop shots and bunker shots. i have 14* bounce on my 56 and I can hit a flop shot pretty easily and if I catch a sand shot fat i can still get the ball out of the bunker.

Another vote for the 8 bounce. If your sand wedge has about twice that bounce it will cover the heavy stuff for you. Vokey is a good choice!

Yeah okay then, so I'm looking at a Vokey 60.08 Spin milled, although I heard that Titleist is bringing out 62* and 64* later this year, should I wait for them?

8 - allows you to open up and hit bunker shots easily.

I wouldn't go with more than 8 - on hard surfaces the "bounce" bounces when you open up making you thin it real easily. Perfect contact is required - which most people can't get all of the time.

As for 62/64 - Sure, why not? Ask yourself where are you going to use the club and what advantages would it give you? Personally, i find 58 does everything I need it to.
