Smooth sand wedge for me.

For me it would be a nice relaxed 60, I hit that about 90 with a relatively full swing.

Depends in pin location. If the pin is near the front then a 58 wedge so I can land on the green and stop.

Same here.  It's about a 3/4 58* wedge.  Or if there is a lot of green to work with then it also could be a 2/3 (or whatever) 54* wedge.

~75 yards and in I pretty much stick to a lob

Either I hit the best drive of the day, it's a par 5 or I blew it to get there. Depending which it could be a different answer.

With a good flat lie this is a full, flush 55-deg SW for me. But usually I hit them about 75 y because they're not always super flush (golf is hard)

3/4 PW under most conditions; second choice is 6i or 7i punch and run, especially if I'm facing a troublesome crosswind/quartering headwind.

Righty in the left trap

Regardless of pin placement, it would be a full 60, choked down an inch.  The only thing that would alter that, besides hitting from under a tree or something, would be wind.  

Recanting a bit.  Had 76 in today but a really tight, wet lie, basically sitting on the mud.  There is very little bounce on my 60 so I punched a 9, pin high, 8' right, converted.  So, reconsidering, lots of factors could alter my go-to 60 from 78 yards.

It really depends on the situation but if I'm just looking to carry 78 yards, I'm going with a flighted SW.
