I have a Ping Zing 2 BeCu SW that I'm considering putting back in my bag.  Its a holdover from a set of Zing 2's that I sold a few years ago (kind of wish I kept the set for sentimental reasons, but oh well).  I didn't want to sell the SW because I always figured I would end up putting it back in my bag.  Well, now may be that time.

I'm currently playing S56's and Vokey wedges.  My S56 PW is 47 deg and my Vokey's are 52 and 56.  I was going to swap out my 56 for the Zing 2, but after looking around on the web I was surprised to find that the Zing 2 SW's loft is 52.  The swap-out doesn't seem to make sense anymore because I don't want 2 52's and I don't want my Zing 2 to be my Gap wedge (it's an 18 bounce).

Does that make sense to anyone?  Why would the old wedges be so strong?

Thanks!

I wouldn't worry about the bounce, sole is wide.  The Zings have a SW that is 52, LS that is 57 and LW that is 61.  I think these irons came out before a wedge of that loft was officially called a "gap" wedge.
