Irrespective of your handicap, it is very important to have the correct equipment for your game. You have to feel comfortable with what clubs you have in your hand, how they look and how they feel. If you play on a hard/ dry course you will want a low bounce club, this will allow you to slide under the ball and pop it up. Low bounce wedges also are good for those with a shallow swing arc. High bounce wedges are ideal if you play on a wet or very soft course, or have an aggressive swing path, which means you are a digger. High bounce clubs are better for playing out of the rough, and also bunkers.
If you get the correct clubs for your game your handicap will drop, and once you get to a lower handicap you would want the correct clubs anyway.

How do different degrees of bounce in a wedge work in varying conditions on the course?
Bounce is the angle from the leading edge of the club face across the bottom of the club. If you have 7 degrees of bounce, the bottom part (part that rests on the ground) of the club will angle down toward the ground at 7 degrees. This is designed to keep the leading edge of the club from digging into the ground or sand as clubface strikes the ball. If you play where there is soft, deep sand you generally want more bounce. If the ground is hard and the sand soft, you may be well advised to use a sand wedge with lots of bounce (7-10 degrees) and a wedge from the ground with little bounce. Hit em straight and seldom--
