A couple of questions regarding wedges please help

Ok so I just upgraded my 2004 Big Berthas to some Adam CB1's got them all custom fitted with 1/2 inch extensions.  Now my old wedges seem to be possessed i seem to be heeling an awful lot of shots especially with my 56*.

So my wedge set up is as follows,

47* stock PW

51* stock GW

52* Taylormade tp (8* bounce)

56* Callaway X chrome (13* bounce)

So to my main question, how much length should be between my 51* and 56* because right now it is about an 1 to 1.5 inches.

Also now with my old clubs being a little weaker lofted then my old ones has made my 52 irrelevent.  So I was wondering what kind of spacing I should be looking for between my wedges (5* seems a little high).  Also if you can offer me any recommendations for wedges under 120 that would be great.

So i should definately lengthen it? Sorry im new on the whole custom fitting world you can lenthen a wedge correct?

In regards to gapping, it all depends on your distances and what you like to hit where. Its pretty personal. you need to you know full, 3/4 and 1/2 swing distances for your wedges and then compare them to where you play most of your shots from. I would imagine that from 120 yards and in you can play 52,55 and 60 pretty easily just depending on how you control your distances.

IMO the wedge gapping is pretty straight forward and people just need to spend a little more time on the range dialling in their distance control. If you have a range finder or at least some set yardages on a range go spend some time hitting different shots with your wedges and you should be able to get your yardages set in no time.

You will answer your own question that. way. I would recommend PW, 52, 55 or 56 and 60

The only thing fretting me is people are saying a 60 is a devil to hit, which is what tempted me to go with the 54, 58 set up.

If you are planning on standing in the fairway and hitting full out shots with a 60 you might have some issues. However if you know how to flight the ball and control distances and trajectories the 60 can be your best friend.

Nothing wrong with a 54 58 gapping though, again you will notice some of the same tendencies with the 58 and 60 but you might see some initial forgiveness with a 58. the 60 is great around the greens and out of the bunkers, really helps to get it up and stop it on the greens. I wouldn't stress to much about using a 60 over a 58 but I would highly recommend learning how to control the trajectories and distances with it and your 56, could make a huge difference for you.

My first question is why put 1/2 inch extensions on custom fitted irons??

Seems like you'd want the original shafts to be fit to the correct length.

As to wedges, I think 1/4 inch difference between gap, sand, and lob is becoming prevalent as that is what OEMs are doing between 9i and PW. I just do the same and it works for me. It may be different for someone else.

My 4-GW where custom fitted with the 1/2 inch extension, my non set wedges (54, 56) were not custom fitted with any extension just standard length.
