Depends on the lie, the green, pin position, what's between the ball and the green, the wind... etc.

In other words, It DEPENDS.

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.

I posted this 3 weeks ago, but what a difference a little time and playing time make. Although I still like this shot and still have confidence in it, I now prefer the Pitching Wedge first, then the 7-iron. I am beginning to spin the ball better and I notice more often that my ball is finishing BEFORE my ball mark (not most of the time, just a lot more than it used to!). So by being able to stop the ball better, I find myself going for more pins than in the past.

Can I change my vote?

Its not always how you drive the ball, but how it arrives.

    • 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.
