    Anyone else wish Vokey would offer a high bounce K in the sand wedge lofts? I understand the more modern approach is to use the lob wedge out of the sand, but I'm a bit more old school and like to use my sand wedge out of the sand most of the time and have a low bounce lob wedge. I just received my 60.06K today but would love a 54.14K as well. I've had 54.14F and 54.12D and like them both well enough, but I feel the 54.14K would be perfect.

    I’ve been using 58-14K or 60-14K bent strong since 2018. My lob wedge has been 64 going back to 2007.

    I’ve been using 54-14F to 52 as a gap wedge for 6 months now. It swings better than 52-12F. Using a 58V for all purpose and the combo of 60-14K (58*) and 62-08M (61*) for course conditions.

    Wouldn't be very effective from fairway full shots. Would be so much bounce with that wide of sole that consistent contact would be nearly impossible.

    K grind is not the greatest for full swing shots. It gets under the ball better vs D grind BUT the latter gives about 5 yards more distance with the same loft. 54-14F set to 52 works very well for me as a "gap wedge". K grind is like a sickle through thick grass and plows through soft sand. V grind is much more universal vs D grind or K grind.

    What is a V grind?

    It is a Wedgeworks club. "V Grind" is a T grind profile with 10* bounce

    I’m 100% on board with you!

    The 58.14K is the greatest wedge ever designed in my opinion. A total savior. That said, the 58.06K is a close second.
