re: Golf Wedges- 58 or 60 degree?

Because you aren't getting the full use (usually) out of your wedges if you have a 60* and are above that handicap.
I like to think that really high lofts are used for specialized shots, and a lot of handicappers above that skill level just can't be consistent with the shots that club produces. A 58* would be fine.
ETA: Learning to score with your 52* and 56* is a lot more beneficial for your game than learning high risk shots, above a 5 handicap (usually). That's what I was trying to get at.

This is what I have done lately and I have a lot fewer frick ups around the green and my number of 1-putts per round has increased. I haven't taken the 60* out of my bag in a couple of months.
