I played a round yesterday and really it was so-so
But the one thing that was on was my short game!!!!!!
I was killing it with my bb 06 sand wedge.
Now I'm kind of looking into a lob wedge.
I'm about a 25 hp now but hopeful that will be going down soon.
What do you guys think???

Killing it how? Sending it too far with a sand wedge? What are the lofts on your PW, GW, and SW (or the subset of which that you carry)? General advice is to keep wedge lofts roughly evenly spaced. That's what my pro told me and that's what I keep seeing on this board.

No killing it meaning I was doing very well.
Like 10 feet from the pin or better:)

I've always considered my SW, just that, something for the sand. If you hit it well with that much bounce, maybe you should look at a higher bounce wedge.

I have a buddy stationed in Cheyenne. Haven't been there yet though.

ive heard several times people say stuff like u shouldnt always carry a lob wedge, or its just a "show-off" club. i think its crap, i love my lob wedge, from 70yrds and in its almost all i use, its great out of the bunker to a quick and tight pin too. the only 60 ive owned is the callaway xtour 60, with the pm grind:great wedge, but not really for a 25handicap i dont think(not very good on mishits). maybe try a cleveland wedge like the cg-11, it should be forgiving and nice. good luck

      I’m not sure I agree. It’s just what the majority find more entertaining. Most people prefer women’s gymnastics over men in the Olympics. How much hype is there with the men’s compared to the women’s? I bet you can rattle off several big names in women’s gymnastics and only a handful of men. Women’s tennis …same thing. And sure enough, their purses are the same. However, WNBA, awful…LPGA, not near as much interest than PGA. Don’t think it’s really that complicated IMO.

      Hence your Avatar!😜 I drink a lot of water during the day if I’m playing or exercising. I get cramps otherwise.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      If you walk up to a food/drink kiosk at Magic Kingdom and ask the person for a cup of "magic water" they will give you a small cup of Sprite for free. About 3 fingers worth. They don't sell alcohol at MK anymore so I go over to one of the courses while she hangs out there.

      This isn't some kind of natural fact. It's a lot more complicated than this implies.
