Due the lower lofting in my irons I've gotten rid of the 58* and now the 54 is the highest loft in the bag, I love the simplicity of my choices.
I'm a trouble maker, but I'll ask since I'm bored lol.
How does manipulating club face take guesswork out? And what about distance control inside 100 yards? Doesn't that introduce guess work since you have to figure out how far to grip down or open the face?
I gotcha man. I like the variety that comes with different wedge games. It's why I don't I'll never say XX° loft should never be played by ams. We all sort of put our own mark on it much more than any other facet of the game.

You asked...And Jman thanked you so I will answer
I know how far my wedge travels with a full, 3/4 and half swing. I know how far it travels when I just use my arms and not hip action to take spin off it. I know how far the wedge goes with the three swings while choking down an inch or two. I know if I lay the face wide open and open my stance on my 54* I need to swing 3/4 to get a 20 yd flop that will end up right of the flag. I know with a slightly open face I can add some loft to carry a small grove of trees. I know all this because I work with the club and these shots on the regular. Most that carry a 60 or 58 have no clue what it can actually do. I see it more often then not, the 60 costing people shots because it was the wrong play. I am all for playing what you want, but I think its silly if its costing you shots.

I'd say that most don't have a clue what any wedge in their bag can do, much less a 58 or 60 and that's all related to how often they practice with them. I just don't think it's exclusive to the number of wedges you play or the lofts.
