I have now evolved to two WTG passes on most work days as that gives me what I need. On weekends, I will do the WTG, XTG, XTG, ATG shaves.
Anyone else find two WTG passes enough most time?

I just did a wtg wtg shave with my muhle r41. Definitely close enough for work tomorrow. On the weekends I usually do wtg,xtg, atg. I've figured out my face doesn't like it when I go for bbs every shave.
I've done two WTG passes before. It felt more like my cartridge days when i'd just do one WTG pass.
lately it's WTG>XTG and calling it a day.

Ditto! I can do BBS on Saturday allowing a non ATG shave on Sunday while still being very smooth. The next BBS shave then is the next Saturday typically. One day a week is enough for me. If I am on vacations, I may do one every three or four days.
I'm still trying to figure out what my face likes. Often if I try a ATG pass, my face doesn't like it at all. I usually do a WTG most days with a XTG thrown in on a Sat or Sun. Haven't tried 2 WTG passes, may give that a shot.
My typical shave is a WTG, XTG, XTG. I have at times done a WTG x 2. My face really hates going for BBS, but I am happy enough to get a DFS for work. I am doing a quickie in the shower today before heading out.

I find one to be enough in most cases.
I do WTG, WTG when I use my Feather AC SS. With that razor I can get a solid shave that way. With my DEs I do WTG, XTG, ATG.
I've gotten into a WTG, XTG, XTG. So far that seems to be working the best for me, but I haven't tried WTG, WTG. I think I'll try it and report what that does for me.
This is me, too.
Most days two wtg passes and maybe some touch ups is all I need.
Only 11 shaves into with my straight, so I cut myself when I try xtg. I do wtg wtg on most days and get acceptable results very comfortably. For special occasions I shave wtg atg and get bbs on everywhere but my chin and bottom lip area, but I don't need that every day
I can get by with 2 WTG most days, unless i've gone a couple days without shaving for some reason. My trouble spots seem to be right along the jawline, so I usually have to go XTG or ATG there, but sometimes it irritates my face, so I just touch up and go. I'm very new to DE shaving though, so I still have a lot of technique kinks to work out.
On my cheeks which are the most sensitive I do a WTG -> WTG -> XTG
Two WTG passes get me through the week with no problemo at all. Weekends i go the full monty 
Used to do wtg, XTG and ATG with the EJ89 to get a nice shave. Now that I'm using a 2013 R41 I do 2 WTG passes and I'm really smooth. If I throw in a ATG on my upper lip and XTG on my neck I'm at BBS.
Love the R41.
Love the R41.
Sigh. I wish.
Every morning, Fatip + Feather (no more than 3 shaves per blade) WTG, XTG and AGT.
Not so far, but I might try it.
Nope. WTG+TU (touch-up) for me.
Thanks,
Mike
