Is a lob wedge a must have. If so what are the best situations to use them?

It takes some time to learn how to use a lob wedge. However, it can really benefit your score if you can master it. I highly recommend lots of practice with the LW before putting it in play, should you decide to get one.

Insight BTY - 9.5*
Insight xtd a3 - 15*
Idea a3 Boxer Hybrid -19* & 22*
Idea a3 - 5-GW
Vokey Spin Milled - 54* & 58* Studio Select Newport 2 - 35'' Pro V1

Can you guys explain to me what all the wedges are for? Im kinda new to golf and all I've ever had is a pitching wedge and sand wedge. Thanks, Troy

I have two. I need another one though becuase I hit my sandwedge two clubs shorter than my pw. So I dont have an inbetween club that I can take afull swing at.

Currently, 3. PW, SW, LW. Super GI jacked up lofts. 45, 55 & 60.

I've got an annoying gap between the p & s. But instead of fixing through more aquisition i've been opening up the pw & playing a high fade in from 100yds. pw is around 115 usually, sw is around 90.

my first set come with a PW and AW. then I bought a Cleveland CG12 ZIP 54 degree and a $23 60 degree. Won a coupon at this par 3 stand where I got a free wedge, but shipping was $23. Decent wedge though

VDub pride


I use just 2, a 52 and a 56. I feel if I can't hit whatever shot I need to with a 56 then I need to practice. I have never seen the practicality in 60+ degree wedges...

I have 3- pitching W at 48*, Vokey 52* bent to 51* and a Vokey 60* which is perfect for the fine sand we have in the Melbourne sandbelt..

Question: How do you tell what the angle degree is with your wedge? My X-22 set came with a PW and a SW though I don't know what angle they have.

In my bag:
Driver X460 TOUR OPTIFIT 10.5* Graphite
FW 3W BIG BERTHA DIABLO 13* Graphite
FW 5W BIG BERTHA DIABLO 18* Graphite
Irons X-22 IRONS 5 - PW & SW GraphitePutter Odyssey Dual Force Rossie IIUnder my bag: 2007 EZGO ~ Customized


I would say 3. I don't count the PW as a wedge. It's 45 freakin degrees of loft. I use it for shots between 120 and 140.

I have a 50, 56 and 60. Those are my wedges.

    • So I am aware that "the committee is allowed to set its own standards of player conduct in a code of conduct adopted as a local rule" (rule 1.2b) I also understand that there are some aspects that are allowed to be entered, and some that are not allowed.  My question specifically is: In which form does this code of conduct need to be available? Is it enough for someone to say "that's part of our code of conduct", or is it a requirement, that the code of conduct is in written form? Also, is there a need that the local rule points to the code of conduct in any way?   For better understanding: I'm playing competition and the next course that we play has a "no smoking policy". I don't have a problem with it, as I don't smoke anyway, but one of my team-mates does, and someone told him "You'll get disqualified if you smoke on the course".   Now I have looked at their local rules and there is no reference to a "code of conduct". I'm not sure if they even have an official "code of conduct" that states that smoking is not allowed.   I fully agree that he SHOULD respect this request from the club, but I am wondering if the club would really be allowed to DQ this player for this, if it's not properly documented in their local rules/code of conduct?  This is an official national amateur tournament, so not just something organized by a club for its members.
    • A few months back I purchased the following swing aid on Amazon ($130). It is solidly made of steel and heavy and stable in use. I use it both at the range and at home. Swing Plate Dual PRO by Jamie Brittain - Swing Analyzer Aid - Fits Standard 8mm Alignment Rod Sticks - Teaching Swing Plane Perfector - Indoor/Outdoor Golfing Practice. This winter I set a goal for myself to improve my backswing/downswing to be more consistent and on plane. I had a two way miss with my approach shots this past golf season. I have a hitting set-up in my garage, but I needed something to provide feedback while swinging the club. I came across the Swing Plate while browsing YouTube.   I set it up with the correct angles for my 8 iron. I started out with just the back rod in place, which prevents me from getting too far inside on the backswing. Started out slow and as I got comfortable increased my swing speed. Now I also came across a YouTube video on building a better backswing and getting more width in the backswing and added that to my practice. That video is here:    This video is a bit wordy since you are basically a fly on the wall as Ian gets a lesson. It took a few replays to be able to get the substance of the instruction. It was well worth the effort. Over the last two weeks I have been able to get out on the course and gauge how successful my practice has been. Overall, my consistency with approach shots has improved greatly. Incorporating the added width in my swing has also added a few yards to all my clubs.  What has your off-season training been like?
