Bounce

Hi All,

 First post on this forum, have been reading a few weeks now. Tips and advice makes for interesting reading.

 I am sure this question has been asked a thousand times already but i have difficulty understanding what bounce i would require from my wedges. Currently i have a PW & SW that came with my Wilson Staff Di9's but i really want to get a set of 4 (PW GW SW & LW) Cleveland CG15 wedges. The best prices i have seen are internet based and there appears to be a few different bounce options and was wondering what everybody else thinks. I was under the impression that a higher bounce would be better for bunker shots but its not that important for fairway/greenside/rough? I currently use my SW for pretty much all my chipping and short range pitching and i have no idea what bounce that has i cant seem to find the info on it.

 Any help would be appreciated.

Russ this would be my rec' for  bounce on the CG's, You want as much help as you can get on the SW so i have gone for max bounce , my preference is low bounce on the lob wedge's ,but if you need more confidence aim for a bit more bounce. Hope this helps.

Your current SW  (wilson) has 12* bounce minimum. 

Thanks for your reply and recommendations Dave and the info reference the bounce on my current SW. Looking forward to getting some good wedges which should go some way to sharpening up my short game.
