I'm currently on the hunt for a replacement GW and looking at a Cleveland 588 or CG10,11or12 range as i currently have a 54&60 in the 588DSG RTG range.

What i'm wondering is can you get away with bending a wedge from 52* down to 50*?

and also if anyone has a wedge that meets those specs give us a yell.



cheers

You can buy a KZG 50* wedge from a local distributor to your specs. I have a 50*, 54* & 58*, excellent clubs.

Most decent wedges will bend. Remember increase loft, increase bounce and vice versa.

I bent my 56 to 54 a while back and was glad I did.

simmsy, just do it. I don't want to see 18 threads over the next year all relating to your GW hunt :roll:

cheers mate, didn't know Cleveland suffered from that fate too badly.

Any tricks for trying to identify ridgy didge from bodgy?
