Cleveland Sand Wedge 588RS

[meddyliol]

I have just ordered Cleveland Sand Wedge 588RS from ebay for £16 which I think is good value. The reason I needed another sand wedge is that the course I play on has a very gritty sand in the bunkers. This has ruined my Ping Eye 2 Copper Beryllium sand iron. My question is, as this 588RS club was designed for idiots like me to get out of bunkers easier does that mean that I don't have to open my stance and clubface? I know that the best way to find out is to try it and see but was wondering if the experts out there could give me some advice.

Thanks in advance

I tried the 60* Lob wedge cuz it was on sale for $39. With the extra big sole, it was very easy to pitch and got the ball up nice and high. Here's what golf.com says about it:

Description
The 588 RS wedge was specifically designed for players who struggle with getting out of the sand. It has 60 degrees of loft, an extra large "recovery sole" and a low center of gravity making even the toughest bunkers easy to escape. It also retains the classic 588 profile that''s made it one of the most popular wedge shapes of all time.

Thanks for your answer, I am looking forward to having a bash with it but am off down the golf club to be fitted for a Ping G10 or Cobra 9-1.

Thanks

I actually bought the Cobra 9.1 as it was the only one of four different ones tried that I consistently hit straight(ish). Very impressed so far.
