What do you want me to hit? lol. Read the article.

Well said. If it's a bump and run I've hit a 7 iron but, normally, I hit a smooth pitching wedge.

I just aim to the left and hit the driver.

Seriously, I choke down on the PW with a 3/4 swing and hit that. However, I just got a 52* GW so that will be my 100 yard club.

Depends on the situation. I am most comfortable using a 7-iron and "chipping" it up if the ground allows it, and definitely if there is tree trouble. If I don't think that will work, then my pitching wedge.
My Equipment:
Northwestern 3-, 5-, 7- and 9-wood;
Goldwin AVDP Irons (5-10 plus PW);
U.S. Golf 60 degree wedge;
See-More Putter; Bushnell Yardage Pro 1000 Rangefinder;Golflogix GPS.

From a decent lie with no wind and the pin in the front half of the green it's a solid SW 55*. Last time I did my yardages (2 months ago) a solid SW was spot on 102 yards.

Otherwise with no wind, it could be anything from SW, GW through to an 8 iron depending on lie and pin position. Given the way it's blowing outside at the moment - solid 30mph+ with gusts over 50mph tomorrow morning I might be hitting a 6 iron!

In normal conditions w/ fast greens I use my 54 degree sw. But often times, the safest play for me is a three quarter knockdown shot w/ my 50 degree wedge.

With a perfect lie and no room behind, Gap, If lie is less than perfect or plenty of room behind, PW. Because even a small mishit with a wedge can make a 5-7 yard difference.

Pitching wedge, since that's all I have right now for wedges.

Struggle with 100 yards in though, thin my PW far too much and end up shooting a line drive over the green.

I use my 54° wedge. Because it stop quickly, maybe if I use the 58° I will get a lot of backspin.

Choke up a bit on my gap wedge. My standard gap wedge goes about 105-110 depending on course conditions, so when I choke up it goes about 100 consistently.

    • Day 29 (9 Dec 25) - PW dink and rolls as well as low flighted chips.  Dink and rolls - set up with club head toe down/heel up to promote low flight, plenty of roll out.  Low flighted pitches - club flat on the ground to get ball up a Rick more and check more.   No more than 10yds total distance - focus on getting the ball to finish near (within 10’ dia circle) the target “pin”…
    • Never play with him again, and make sure every time you see him (especially when he's with other people) bring it up as a joke. Everyone will laugh but him. If he wants to ruin his own reputation, let him. 
    • Only ever used ShipSticks and never had a problem. It's really nice because you can ship to anywhere not just courses.  No matter what you use, I take the extra care of the clubs and wrap them in something before putting them in your bag and into the shipping box.   
    • Practicing my putting after work. I put five balls on the carpet and a mug on the other side. Once I make 3 out of 5 I can stop. If I leave any short or they go to far and fall off the rug, I restart.  Focusing on speed and hitting my mark 3 inches in front of me. Trying to gain consistency and discipline in all aspects of my putting game.
