I'm looking to change my wedge setup to 54* and 58" (50* is part of set) but I'm not sure what bounce would suit me best for the 58*. My home course is a harder surface with not much sand, I'm more of a digger than a sweeper but I'm not super consistent about it either. Right now I'm looking at a wedge with 8* bounce. Thanks!

With a hard course with little sand I would probably go with something with about 4* bounce for you 58*wedge and something along the lines of about 10* for your 54*
If you always do what you've always done....You'll always be where you are right now..

I made a discovery when I added my G5s to the bag.

I found that I was much more effective with "stock" G5 wedges than with prior aftermarket.

Check out the Scratch wedges website for custom bounce options. Heard them on the PGA network on XM the other day and was impressed with their offerings. Not cheap, but lots of options for sure. Nice looking too.

Sorry...didn't finish my point. Those stock G5 wedges had tons more bounce than I've ever used...twice what I was gaming on some specialty wedges.

I seem to do better with these higher bounce wedges. I suppose I'm more of a digger than I once thought.
