Cleveland RTX wedge bounce

[Tech707]

I'm currently gaming a 56 mid and 60 mid RTX wedge. The gapping is a little too much from my gap wedge so looking at going with a 54/58 setup. My question comes with selecting a bounce setup for this combo. I live in south Florida so conditions are typically soft. I don't tend to dig a ton on my irons, but I have a steeper approach with my wedges. Prefer to play them towards my back foot. I am looking to go with a mid grind 10 54 and full grind 12 58. Am I overthinking how I will play these clubs and better off reversing the grinds/bounce?

Do you play any shots with an open face with your lob wedge? I lived in Florida for many years, and I always preferred to play my SW with lots of bounce, and my LW in low bounce. That allowed me to have versatility depending on lies and conditions of fwys, rough, and bunkers.

Soft conditions would favour the full sole, with more bounce.

No matter where you play I think everyone should have a high and low bounce option 

 

50 - standard grind 

54 - high bounce (soft bunkers and conditions )

60 - low bounce (tight lies , tight bunkers) 

 

this gives you all the options you need

If the conditions are generally soft year round then mid and full should suit you well.  I‘m in Chicago, where the conditions of the bunkers can vary greatly from course to course.  Some have a lot of sand and some very little.  I carry a 54D and a 58T, but always have a 58K ready to go in the trunk of my car.

I typically don't as most of the time I'll just blade it across the green. In practice it works great though :)
