  1. Hey Team Titleist!

    I'm currently gaming the SM9 56.10 S and SM9 60 T wedges and loving them. I'm about to upgrade to the SM10s in the same setup but have been thinking about adding a 62.08 M to the mix. My idea is to switch between the 60° and 62° wedges depending on course conditions.

    One thing I'm debating is whether I’d be better off with the 62.08 M or getting another 60.04 T and bending it to 62°. I’d love to hear your thoughts on this strategy. Has anyone else tried alternating between two lob wedges? How do you manage the differences in bounce and loft on different types of courses? And which route would you suggest for the 62°?

    Looking forward to your insights!

    Thanks, Kshitij

    I have a 56-10S bent to 54. 60–14K bent to 58 and 60-04T. I also carry a 64* wedge.

    You can always try 62-08M bent to 60.

    What is the bounce on the 64?

    10* and it is a Callie PM Grind. I tried the Wedgeworks 64W for 2 years.

    I don’t believe the 64 is from Vokey. Bending a 60 degree by 2 degrees will increase the bounce by an equal 2 degrees.
    I don’t know if the “62” T will offer enough difference from the 60 T versus how you would use an M grind.
    For myself, I have 2 54 wedges. The D grind is for when the green side bunkers are fluffy, and an S grind when the bunkers are dense.

    The 64 is a PM Grind 64/10. I had a Wedgeworks 64W that I had for 2 years. I’ve had the PM Grind for 6 years.

    My wedge setup is 48-52-56-60-64. The 52 is a 54S bent 2* strong. The 56 is a 58-12D bent 2* strong. 60-04T is stock. In reserve I have a 56-12D (54*) and SM6 60-12K (58*) for a Sunday bag.

    My iron gapping is 39-44-49-54-58-60-64. Using an SM10 46–10F (44*) in place of the 9 iron. 50–2F (49*). 56-12D (54*). 60–14K (58*) and 60-04T have been a good combo for high/low bounce. “Phil” 64/10 has been in my bag for 6 years. Giving SM10 62-08 M a shot

    Keeping the 60-04T and “Phil 64” for course conditions.
