What Wedge to Add?

[MarkM]

Right know I have a P wedge and a 56 deg sand wedge. I have been thinking of adding another wedge. Would you guys recomend a Gap wedge or a 60 deg wedge? I really like my sand wedge and have been using that for all shots under 100 yards including chipping.

I at one point had PW - 48, GW - 52, SW - 56, and LW - 60 but took out the LW. Now I'm thinking of replacing the LW with the GW or just take both out the bag. So I don't think you NEED to get another wedge. What is your distance gap between PW and SW.

I really like my 50* Vokey. I use it out of the rough for short shots where it is too easy to come up short with the 58*. I also chip with it and hit shots in the 110-65y range with it.

Get a GW of 50-52 deg and you'll be pleasantly surprised at how often you end up using this club. The PW of today is actually a 9i of yesteryear. So the GW is really a PW....

I'd go with the 52 degree. Another suggestion is getting one with a little different grind and bounce than what your sand wedge is. Depending on the lie you would have even more options.

todays SGI and GI clubs have much stronger lofts then those of yesterday. My pitching wedge for example is rated at 45 degrees. It is always easiest to be able to take the same repeatable swing time and time again and get repeatable results. To that extent, it is advisable to have as few yardage gaps as possible. If you are comfortable taking a full swing with your 56 degree sandwedge, you will find that adding a gap wedge will help quite a bit.

You can't beat the versatility of 60* log wedge. It saves more strokes than any other club in my bag when I need it most. Not to mention the pressure it takes off my putter getting it closer greenside etc.

I really love my 60*. I can really hit any type of shot with it, if I have 20 metres I can get it to stop, 50 metres to stop. Or let it a run a little, chip with it, I really recommend one because they're so versatile. You can't demo both?
