This is really dumb. I'd gotten this Vokey 52.08 wedge and to my extreme dumbness~ I'd not checked properly (and simply looked at the loft-bounce) and bought.... A LEFT-HANDED WEDGE! affraid

Of all the dumb things, I have to get a left-handed wedge.

Any solutions to this problem? I figured I probably have to 'flip over' by standing on the other side of the ball where lefties do instead of where most right-handed folks do though~ Sigh.

Hahaha~ Yah. Bought it here cos it was the last of the 2009/2010 wedge.

Was hunting for my 52 approach wedge high and low and found it, in my excitement I failed to check if its LH/RH.

Strangely, after standing on the 'wrong side', I did got quite a decent pitch and chip (choking it down lower as I do for my other 56 SW) still even though my master hand is my right arm (but left master eye). So what u guys think? Just keep it?

Oh BTW, I putt on my left side too.

You would need to put extra effort on every round to do such changes. Might as well enjoy the game making things simpler.

Either bring them back or sell them off.

Godlike huh? ROFL

But its kinda weird, standing on the flipside doesn't feel 'wrong' since I also grip my putter in a left handed way.

Maybe will try it out on the hole tomorrow to come to a better conclusion. Preference is on my right hand, but I can do flipsided stuff at times.
