Stopped at Academy for some shoes and spied this gem in the golf aisle.
 
Looks like a Bombtech product.

That looks like it laying flat on the ground

I would probably hit myself in the face with the ball off this wedge.
 
Nice shovel.

As much as I deloft I’d game it. My 64* is one of the best assets in my bag.
 
That would be fun to try and hit....once or twice.
 
If I had that club, maybe I could do this all the time without the extra technique:

I think I have a photo of something very similar on my phone, couldn't stop grinning, wondering how hard it would be for the average hacker to use.
 
Put it away before you hurt yourself...
 
Sometimes I bring my Bombtech 72° out. Standard flop shots go straight up and end up about 10 yards away. I can hit the roof of the range with it as well, which only extends a couple yards away from the ball position.
 
I would buy it just to mess around. I def wouldn't game it
 
You can use it as a shoe horn if needed!

Saw the same wedge when i was in Academy about a month ago; my first reaction was "Really?" I had a 66* wedge about 15 years ago that i thought had too much loft to be practical. 76* seems just ridiculous to me.
 
Not gonna lie, I would buy it. I have an unhealthy addiction to wedges. Don't judge me... *** looking at you putter lovers ***
 
cut the shaft down to 6" and use it to make pancakes....
