  1. Polls on T grind. I play in South Texas , hard and tight lies - fairways and around greens.

    Had a T grind on my SM10 60 and loved it for firm and tight lies in Phoenix but had issues with bunker shots. Now using SM11 60.06K and changed my high bounce 56 to 56.08M. I can now play most of those feel and lob shots with the 56 and the low K is better for me on bunker shots. Naturally everyone will be different so find what works for you.

    I have 60-04T. For almost 2 years my bunker combination was 58-12D (56*) and 60-06K. There are some nuances. Actually a 60-04T can be hit out of soft sand with more of a sweep. The biggie for me is flop shots. My D grind is a no brainer in soft bunkers.

    I did a "mad scientist experiment" yesterday at the suggestion of my local fitter: bent the 60-04T to 62. It works better out of soft sand and still hits well off tight lies. Only about 2 yd different vs 64. I have 58D and M for course conditions. If I play Torrey, I pull the M and the 60-04T and replace them with 58-04T and Bunkr 64 (14.5 bounce).

    Update:

    Set the M grind to 56* and set the 58-04T to 60*. Now my plan is to pull the 60-04T and replace it with 58-04T and the Bunkr 64 for courses like Torrey Pines. Even with a 58-12D, that's 12 clubs. D grind is there for fluffy bunkers and thick grass.

    The 60-04T is back to stock. It is paired with 58-12D. The 58-04T (60-06T) is a "Sunday bag" option. I lost a bit of height and carry setting 60-04T to 62. Now the Bunkr is a drop in for Torrey Pines.

    I play T grind ,North Texas.
    I can hit a flop from the fairway if I want to.
    I was screwing around and flopped a ball in the hole from the fringe. Messed up the grass less than all the people in DFW that drag their feet all over the green...

    They're pretty deadly. I have both a 60-04T and 58-04T.

    I put the 58-04T back to stock so I have it and 58-12D for course conditions. The 60-04T and Phil 64 are in my dad's bag (along with my 910F 21 and 816H1 27).

    I picked up a 56-12D after trading in my 60-04T. It is at 55*. The 58-04T has more carry vs 60-04T plus it actually outdid a 58-08M. M grind used to be 11* bounce at SM4.
