Do you use the pitching wedge from your set, or another one?

I use the one from my set but I don't think it would be a bad idea to use a Vokey or something of that sort like you said.

My PW is 45° loft...so this would be a big gap from my 9 to the vokey wedge or else I may get it.

I use the pitching wedge from my set, but it's only good for full shots. It imparts almost no spin on the ball, making it useless for pitch shots. Sometimes I'll also use it for a chip when I need a bump and run, though.

When I get the money I'm replacing it with a 48 degree Vokey or MP-R, and having it bent to 46.

I use my PW from my set. I have no problems with it as it give me great spin and control. It's when I get to my other wedges that gets me into trouble.

I use my pitching wedge from my set, only for full shots or choked down knockdown shots. I love that club.

I love to hate this damn game.

The PW from my set has just as much spin as my other wedges. Gotta love forged sets.

I use my set wedge. I used to use a 48* vokey 200 until I left it on a hole about 3-4 months ago I think the difference is not really in performance, but in set-up and appearance. My set PW looks more like an iron than a wedge. The Vokey has more of a softer wedge feel to it on all shots. It also looks more playable to me, than my set wedge for chipping and various open face shots. I wouldn't recommend using a Vokey or CG PW if your iron set is an oversize game improvement model with quite a bit of offset the difference from pw to 9 would be possibly a bit too radical in the looks department.

The HiBore PW isn't worth a crap so I use a Ping Rapture knock off from gigagolf as my PW. Much more accurate.

I swapped out my Callaway x series pw and sw with callaway forged wedges. My PW was a 46 degree and swapped with a 48 degree forged. The sand wedge was the same 56 degree and recently added a 60 degree to round out the set.

In the bag:

Burner 10.5
Rescue mid 16, 19, 22, 25

PW from my set. It is 45*. Now that I've added a 50* gap wedge, the PW is only for full shots and some knockdown shots.

      I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
