maybe like a 62* or 64* wedge with not that much bounce because you have a 58* with 10* bounce. or maybe a 5 or 7 wood but i would go with a wedge.

What I Play:
Titleist 910 D3 9.5* Diamana 'ahina X-stiff  | Titleist 909f2 13.5* x-stiff | Taylormade Rescue 19* steel shaft stiff |
Titleist ZB 3-PW S300 | Titleist BV SM 52-08 58-12  | 34" Scotty Cameron California Del Mar | Penta TP

The gap wedge or AW is about 50* IIRC, and you have a 58* wedge.
There might be room for a 54*ish wedge ?

Driver: X460 tour- 9.5*
3-wood: 3+ - 13*
Hybrid: BB HW 20*
Hybrid: 24*
Irons: X-20 Uniflex SteelWedges: Colonial 56* & 60*Putter: XG SabertoothBall: GPS-8âIf you are caught on a golf course during a storm and are afraid of lightning, hold up a 1-iron. Not even God...

if im counting correctly, it looks like u only have 13 clubs in your bag. i would definitely get another one. i dont know what your game is like, so id either get something like a 5 wood, another hybrid, or another wedge. most likely another lower lofted wedge (something around 55º)

if you do have an 8 degree gap between attack wedge to 58* get a 54
What I Play:
Wilson Mini Stand Bag | PING G10, 10.5°, Proforce V2 HL S | PING G5, 15°, 18°, Aldila NV 75 S | PING G5, 19°, Aldila VS Proto By You 80 S

if your sand + AW wedges are the ones that came with the set, like they look the same as your seven iron, do this. Buy an x forged 52 degree wedge, and throw out your sand and AW. Now you have 12 clubs. Pick up either a 2 hybrid or a 4 hybrid, depending on which one you want. than grab a 60 something degree x forged wedge for all your flop shot needs. that makes it the ultimate set for any conditions.

I'm not trying to hijack the OP's thread, but I havea question on what wedge I should get to fill out my set. I've just been fitted for some MX-200s 1-degree flat std length (lefty here). MizunoUSA says that the AW in the set is a 50, the PW was a 45. So should I follow 4 degree rule for my final wedge and try and find a 54 sand wedge? OR should I order the 55 SW from the mx 200 set?

I only this year added a sand wedge to my bag. What a fool I've been to have waited this long. So yes... I say add a SW. I wouldn't go 4 degrees off your AW though. I'd go with a 56 if you are comfortable opening up the club or, if not (like me) then go with a 58. Make sure you select the proper bounce to complement the type sand typically found where you play.

I'd go with another wedge if it were me. I have a similar setup and I run wedges 46 (PW), 50, 54, 58. Seems to give me a pretty nice range. Throw a 54* wedge into the mix and I'd say you're set.

    • Never practiced golf when I was young and the only lesson ever taken was a driver lesson. I feel like I'm improving every year. However, the numbers don't support my feeling about improving. I usually drop to 12-13 during the summer while playing the familiar courses around home and then go on golf trips in the fall to new courses and increase to end the year between 15-17. Been a similar story for a number of years now but hey, it's the best thing there is in life so not too bothered but reaching 9.9 is the objective every year. Maybe a few lessons and practice could help me achieve it since I pretty much have no idea what I'm doing, just playing and never practice.
    • I am semi-loyal. Usually buy four dozen of one ball and only play that until out and then determine whether to continue or try another one. Since starting my semi-loyal path to success, I've been playing the below, not in order: ProV1 ProV1x ProV1x left dash AVX Bridgestone BXS Srixon Z-star XV I am not sure if it has helped anything, but it gives a bit of confidence knowing that it at least is not the ball (while using the same one) that gives different results so one thing less to mind about I guess. On the level that I am, not sure whether it makes much difference but will continue since I have to play something so might as well go with the same ball for a number of rounds. Edit: favorite is probably the BXS followed by ProV1/Srixon Z-star XV. Haven't got any numbers to back it up but just by feel.  
    • Will not do it by myself, going to the pro shop I usually use after Cristmas for input and actually doing the changes, if any, but wanted to get some thoughts on whether this was worthwhile out of curiosity. 
    • In terms of ball striking, not really. Ball striking being how good you are at hitting the center of the clubface with the swing path you want and the loft you want to present at impact.  In terms of getting better launch conditions for the current swing you have, it is debatable.  It depends on how you swing and what your current launch conditions are at. These are fine tuning mechanisms not significant changes. They might not even be the correct fine tuning you need. I would go spend the $100 to $150 dollars in getting a club fitting over potentially wasting money on changes that ChatGPT gave you.  New grips are important. Yes, it can affect swing weight, but it is personal preference. Swing weight is just one component.  Overall weight effects the feel. The type of golf shaft effects the feel of the club in the swing. Swing weight effects the feel. You can add so much extra weight to get the swing weight correct and it will feel completely different because the total weight went up. Imagine swinging a 5lb stick versus a 15lb stick. They could be balanced the same (swing weight), but one will take substantially more effort to move.  I would almost say swing weight is an old school way of fitting clubs. Now, with launch monitors, you could just fit the golfer. You could have two golfers with the same swing speed that want completely different swing weight. It is just personal preference. You can only tell that by swinging a golf club.     
    • Thanks for the comments. I fully understand that these changes won't make any big difference compared to getting a flawless swing but looking to give myself the best chance of success at where I am and hopefully lessons will improve the swing along the way. Can these changes make minor improvements to ball striking and misses then that's fine. From what I understood about changing the grips, which is to avoid them slipping in warm and humid conditions, is that it will affect the swing weight since midsize are heavier than regular and so therefore adding weight to the club head would be required to avoid a change of feel in the club compared to before?
