Your PW is 44?. That's a pretty strong PW. Mine is 47.
You could get them bent but then you'll have to worry that you messed up the bounce on them. If you get them bent and like the yardages at the range you could probably have them ground to the bounce you need. If you don't want to do it to your Vokeys you could always get a set of
Bombtech wedges for $97 and mess with those first. If you want to try for even cheaper I can probably dig up a whole set of old wedges I can send to you that you can mess with. I may even have a set of old Vokeys.
I played for years with 50, 56 and 60. 62 is a recent development without bending. Today I go 47 (PW), 51, 55, 58. 4* changes except the 58. The 58 I like because it's what I use from the sand and I want to be able to hit a wider range of bunker shots.
