Try the Titleist Vokey Spin milled wedges. After getting a 56 degree aboout 6 years ago, I can honestly say I will not be using anything else.  I must say though, those advertisement posters in my club house for cleveland wedges do look pretty sexy.

There's a guy here where I live who has a set of Maxfli Revolution 52-56-60. He wants $50 for the set.
If you're interested, I can pass along his contact info.

What exactly is the purpose of having a bunch of wedges? I only have one 56 degree wedge. Is there an advantage to having a 52,54,or 60 degree wedge? Im just wondering for personal education on golf.

They just continue your irons and give you more yardage options.

These numbers are purely theoretical, but they help illustrate.

Your 4 iron may be a 170 yard club.  full swing
Your 9 iron may be a 110 yard club full swing

then your wedges start.

46 degree Pitching wedge  100 yards full swing

50 degree Gap wedge 90 yards full swing

52 degree Approach wedge 80 yards full swing
56 degree Sand wedge 70 yards full swing
60 degree Lob wedge 60 yards full swing

The beauty of a high loft wedge, like a lob wedge, is when you are within a few yards of the green, but there's a bunker (say, a sand trap) between you and the green and you have to get up and over and right back down.

I really appreciate your post but I got to tell you...after hitting some 'high end' wedges...Titleist vokeys and clevelands...I'm pretty set on just spending the money.

Thanks again though...much appreciated!

Check out vintage wedges on ebay. A lot of hardcore amateurs (and probably a few poser wannabes) got rid of their "non-conforming" wedges when the USGA and R&A; instituted the new groove rules (Condition of Competition  - cc). Check out "vintage" Vokeys, Callaway (a couple very underrated lines), Cleveland 588s, and just look for something rated to have a decent face condition (the important part - they're wedges so bag chatter a little wear on the sweet spot provides instant creditbility among your peers).

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.

I completely understand. I passed on them myslf to buy the Cleveland 588 Forged.
You can buy the good stuff, or wish you had.

I have some Vokeys and Mizuno wedges. They're 54s and 60s with maybe one 56 in there. I can't help you out on a 52 or a 50, though. PM me if you're interested. I could probably do $50 to $75 shipped for two of them. They're used but still in decent shape.

Broke Loser, I have Vokey sm4s 52, 56, 60 The 56 has the most wear and the 52 is the cleanest. All are used and have been played for about 6 months but still have plenty of life. I went to a different loft gapping. I'll take 125.00 for the set shipped.

Cheers, Dale

Thanks Dale...that's seems like a great deal but I'm trying to stay committed to the lofts I think I want to play; 50, 54, 58.

I'm currently playing Callaway X-Tour's in 52 and 58

    • I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.
    • Wordle 1,035 3/6 ⬜🟨🟨🟩⬜ 🟨🟨🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Just lipped out that Eagle putt, easy tab-in Birdie
    • Day 106 - Worked on chipping/pitching. Focus was feeling the club fall to the ground as my body rotated through. 
    • Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
