I am totally 100% in the "love my lob wedge" camp. I use it a lot, for various shots around the green but RARELY use it to hit flop shots. I can flop the hell out of it if needed but, on the course, it hardly ever necessary to do so.You don't NEED a lob wedge but I can vouch for having a 60* U-grind and it has been awesome. I don't use it that much for the "flop" shot, I actually use it more for versatility with all different lies and distances. I even close the face dramatically and do short bump and runs with it and the back spin is awesome. I think people are missing out if they only view lob wedges as "flop" wedges.
