To be honest, I wasnt paying close attention and the range had different balls, so one was soft then the next was a rock.Did you find any difference in feel between the raw and chrome? I thought they said raw were made differently.

Same here. My 60X Jaws is for sale since my PM Grind is just unbeatable around the green.Two rounds in with the 54W. That def knocked the PM54 out. Just so good on full swings and chip shots vs. the PM54.
60X did not knockout the PM58. Hit each chip and green side shot/flop/dig out with both. The PM was the clear winner for me with feel, weighting, and center contact. And just so much better in the deep rough at my course. Like the 60X, but just not as good or versatile as the PM for me on those touch shots/flops around the green. I can make mistakes with the PM and get a good results. I have to be spot on with the 60X or it's a poor result.
Can't decide on new wedges. Leaning towards Jaws because I think the grind options suite me better.
Here is what I'm thinking:
50: S or W grind. 90% of my shots are full swing in this spot.
54: X or W. Most shots here are with a square face. Full shots and square face pitches.
58: Low W is what I'm eye balling here. Think it would be great for bunkers and otherwise. I do the most with this wedge around the greens.
Thoughts?
How do you like the raw? Any difference to chrome?My setup from the GD was 50s/54s/58LowW.
50 is mainly a full swing club.
54 is also full swing, but I'll use it greenside, esp out of rough.
58 was bunker club and from tighter greenside lies.
I recently got the 50 and 54 in raw and switched the 58LowW for a 60x.
I never used the 58 on full swings and wanted the high lofted option for delicate shots around the green
Being in southern Louisiana we play in typically softer conditions and the more bounce and versatility of the X to open it up has been better for me than the LowW.
The X is also really good out of the bunker. I compare the Callaway X grind to the Vokey D grind IMO, kind of a players high bounce option.

This only increases the ponder. I've been thinking about replacing my 58S with a 58 PM Grind. I only use the 58 around the green and out of bunkers, almost never take a full swing with it.Two rounds in with the 54W. That def knocked the PM54 out.

Same here. I only do low pitches and sand with my lob. Pondering PM grind or md5 x grind.This only increases the ponder. I've been thinking about replacing my 58S with a 58 PM Grind. I only use the 58 around the green and out of bunkers, almost never take a full swing with it.
For Snowman:
For my home course the PM 58 is the clear winner. Lots of banked chip shot that you have to get up or flop to get it close. I liked the Jaws 60x just fine, but it did not excel on my home track. Could bag it no problem, but it wasn't versital or forgiving enough to make the bag. Also for me, missing high on the PM in deep rough is actually a shot saver instead of a miss. Can't say that with the Jaws.
Thanks for the response, I appreciate the input. Just ordered the 58° PM - I've been seriously pondering it for a while, time to take the plunge!For Snowman:

And you just can't beat the KBS Hi Rev shaft that comes with the PM. Really smooth, but energetic also.
Still struggling hard out of the sand though, which has been a theme the entire time I've had these wedges. Even when the contact doesn't feel too thin/close to the ball, the shot comes out flat and so hot. Not sure if that's all me, or something about the X grind working against me.
