    I currently game a 50 degree F grind SM9, a 56 degree old Cleveland wedge, and a 60 degree M grind SM9. I love the 50 and 60 but need to replace the old sand wedge. My question is, should I stick with the 56 or does it make more sense to go with a 54. I use my 60 for most shots around the green but would love something I can keep a little lower when needed and that fits the 100-115 yard range. Any opinions are appreciated!

    I was in a similar situation and ultimately settled for 50, 54 and 60. But for me, Im using my 54 for most around the green and anything beyond that i felt was being taken care of by the 60.

    What one sees in my thumbnail is the wedge gapping that has worked. 46-52-58-64.

    I played 50-54-58-64 in the SM4 days. 50-08F, 54-1M, 58-06L, 64-07T. I discovered K grind in 2017. My wedge setup was 50-58-64, using a Fourteen RM21 42* in place of the 9 iron. I found out in 2021 that a 54-10S bent to 52 worked better than a 50-08 and played it for 3 years as a GW. 54-10S and 54-12D both had shortcomings but 54-14 does everything. I tinkered with 58-12D or the combination of 58V & 58-06K the past year. I got rid of some "baggage" and the 58-14K (56*) is my all-around club for greenside shots (even hard lies).

    46-52-58-64 has worked for ages. For 58*, I carry V grind and low bounce K.
