    I am changing my bag up and am looking to add another wedge.

    I currently have  48, 54, & 60 vokeys and am looking to go to 47,50,54,60.

    I am planning to do this by putting the stock wedge from my set back in play at 47 degrees, and bending my 48-vokey to 50.

    Any thoughts out there if a 2 degree add to loft will have any adverse effects? (My 48 is brand new, so I would rather not buy another one) 

    Also, what will this do to the bounce on a 48-6? ---> 50-8?

     

    Thanks in Advance!

    Craig -

    I changed my bag to the same wedge setup except I traded my 48 for a 50 and had it bent to 51, then my 54 to 55 and my 60 to 59...I wanted to keep the difference (4 degrees) in the lofts consistent (47, 51, 55 & 59).  This allows me to cover all the yardage gaps.  When I play wedge shots, I prefer to take more club and swing at 80-85% to reduce the spin.  Also, if you adjust the lofts it will increase/decrease the bounce of the club by the same amount.
