Again, thanks for all the replies guys.
For those of you using a 60 wedge with 4 degrees bounce, are you actually able to use this effectively from sand (not deep stuff obviously)? It just seems that 4 degrees would not offer much help in a bunker.

Since he has a low bounce 60* wedge (as I do) to hit out of hard to medium sand, and a 3/4 pitching wedge to hit off of hard lies, then a higher bounce sand wedge in the bag covers nicely for soft sand, fluffy lies, etc...

Just pointing out mutiple viewpoints; not conspiring.

Take care.

Thanks for the info. I take it by a low bounce 60 degree wedge you are talking about the 60.08 I am looking at or do you mean the very low bounce 60.04?
Just out of interest what bounce have you got on your 60 degree wedge?

Hi tomba. My 60* is around 8. I also have a gap wedge around 6, so I have some choices to play with out of the fairway, and out of sand.

Thanks for the input bdcrowe. Are you able to play the flop with your 60.08 wedge (with the bounce) or is it not a shot you play (I only use it myself from a semi-fluffy lie)?

The flop actually plays very easily with that club for me.

Thanks. Yeah I think it will be fine for me also, as I mentioned earlier I would only use the flop from a suitable fluffy lie.
