Specs for new Sand Wedge

[KDewhurst]

Hi, I need a new sand wedge, the current one is 15+ years old!

I hit the Vokey Spin Milled wedges and like them a lot but am torn between two lofts. 54* and 56*. I like the 54* because I can also use it from the fairway for longer distances, but how would it be out of the sand? I would think that with a 14* bounce I should be ok, but is the sole width wide enough. For very short sand shots I can always use my lob wedge.

So how is it getting out of the sand with a 54*, 14* bounce wedge? Any specific experiences with the Vokey SM wedges would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Kevin

I would say you'll have better luck in the sand with your lob wedge and use the 54 for your 100 yard shot and longer bunker shots where you'll need more run. I have a 54 SW and I only use it in the sand if I have a longer bunker shot and don't need to stop it quickly.

Thanks for the tip! Any opinion on 10 vs 14* bounce?

Cheers,
