I go 52/60 with Ping Glides ... Have the Eye2 grind on the 60, and it's a FANTASTIC grind for versatility, IMO.

When I was playing 52-58, I played a TM Milled Grind 52 in standard bounce and a TM High Toe in 58. Worked pretty well and I never felt I was missing a club or the ability to hit a particular shot. The benefit of the HT for me was the ability to hit full shots like a normal wedge, but also having a ton of versatility around the greens.

S grind for Vokeys. I have two in 54 and 58 and bent them to 53 and 59. The D grind was best out of soft sand but the S was easily the most versatile for me.

I guess..... What bounce to go with that grind. I play a wide variety of courses from med to firm conditions. Sand always Varies as well. I guess I have a normal swing with steep being more prevelant.

I play a 50/56 set up. (and I have done 52/58). Basically I have the Ping Glides with SS sole in the 50* and the ES sole in the 56*. The 50 is used for full shots, 3/4 shots, and pitches around the green. I use the 56* with the ES for sand shots (amazing btw) and its great out of the rough and usable on tight lies also. The ES gives me the versatility.

What RTX grind do you play on the 52?

i have 52/58(bent to 59) RTX4 wedges. the 59 has the high bounce grind with the wider sole. i have my other irons/wedges bent 2* up; however i left the 59 at standard lie so when i lay it open it sits correctly.

Prefer Callaway MD 4 wedges and I think it's course/condition dependent... I play either a 58*, "W" grind (12* Bounce) or a 58*, "S" grind (10* Bounce). For normal conditions, I think the S-grind is more versatile, as it can easily be opened up... due to the heel grind. For wet, grainy or over-filled bunker conditions, I find the W-grind much more playable, but there's not enough heel relief to easily lay open.

I used to game that exact loft set up and was thinking about going back to it, to open up spot in top of the bag for maybe a 5 wood. Personally I go S grind or standard grind with about 10 degrees bounce for anything below 58 degrees. I use Callaway X grind on 58 wedge with 12 degrees of bounce. This is due to where I play and the course conditions I see most often. If I was playing in Texas or somewhere the turf was more firm typically I would probably switch my 58 to C grind and 8 degrees of bounce. I open up face on a lot of chip shots and low bounce in soft conditions is no good for me. Ask yourself what type of shots you play and if turf is normally softer or firm.
