My wedge game is atrocious. Absolutely horrendous. Especially in the 20 to 80 yd range. I'm not bad at all in most facets of the game, but tell me to hit a 60 yds wedge and it's like I've never held a club in my life. Any drills to work on this, or tips to get better at this part of the game?

Figure out how far you hit each wedge a certain distance with a 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 swing. I'd also suggest saying away from 25-60 yard shots. They get delicate and tricky (for me at least). If you're on a par 5 lay up to a stop that isn't inside 80 yards. Or if it's a short par 4 do the same.

      Second Cortisone Injection Today

      By flopster ·

      Just want to share a quick update with everyone. I went to the range the week before last, even though I took it easy no significant pain occurred just a slight twinge when I swung my #4 hybrid. The most encouraging news was no soreness the next morning. However I think switching back to graphite shafts is definitely gonna happen, my mp15's were fitted with X shafts and having something lighter will help.
