Just try to understand the difference in terms of playability and what option is best to go for? I intend to get a 52, 56 and 60 degree wedge.

If you are looking at the difference between the Dynacraft DMC Forged wedge and the Professional Open, the main difference aside from material and construction methods, is the DMC has less bounce and there will be more bite from the face treatment.

There is a perception by many that forged will provide more feel, which is helpful with delicate pitches or less than full shots. Whether you need more bounce or less depends upon several factors like your current course conditions and whether you have more of a descending angle of attack or if you sweep the ball. Less bounce may be preferred if you hit off firm ground conditions. Or if you tend to sweep the ball, reduced bounce can keep the leading edge of the face lower so you are less likely to blade the ball.

The bounce on the Dynacraft DMC 52* wedge is 7*. The bounce for the Professional Open 56* is 16* and the 60* is 12*. The Dynacraft DMC will have the lowest effect bounce of any of our models.
