    Just curious.  When one changes the loft and bounce on a SM5, how would the grind be affected?  Thanks.

    Hi Mark, 

    Thanks for the question.

    When one changes the loft of a wedge, the grind isn't effected as much as the bounce is. For every degree a club/wedge is bent strong, the bounce is reduced by one degree. Vice versa for every degree a club/wedge is bent weak.

    Hope this helps.

    Bubba,

    Thanks for the response. I understand the one for one relationship between loft and bounce when loft is changed.  But, my question was centered around the fact that I want to have a 53* wedge to fit in my sequence.  I am also thinking of the F grind since it is for all three types of swings and all types of conditions.  So I was thinking of getting a 52-08 F grind and bending it up to a 53-09 but wondered if the grind would be affected for the type of swing and the type of conditions.  Thanks for your thoughts.
