Hi!
We have always identified wands before uing them, but looking trough the SRD, it states:
Looking at spell triggers, it states:
There is no explicit statement requiring idetification of the wand, but this might be stated somewhere else ?
The question is therefore, can you just point it in the right direction and hope it works, or do you have to identify it first ?

We have always identified wands before uing them, but looking trough the SRD, it states:
Activation
Wands use the spell trigger activation method, so casting a spell from a wand is usually a standard action that doesn’t provoke attacks of opportunity. (If the spell being cast, however, has a longer casting time than 1 action, it takes that long to cast the spell from a wand.) To activate a wand, a character must hold it in hand (or whatever passes for a hand, for nonhumanoid creatures) and point it in the general direction of the target or area.
Looking at spell triggers, it states:
Spell Trigger
Anyone with a spell on his or her spell list knows how to use a spell trigger item that stores that spell. Activating a spell trigger item is a standard action and does not provoke attacks of opportunity.
