I find that for me the added wedges create more complications in the short game, not fewer. Even 4 is too many for me. I will be carring a 52° and a 56° this year. My PW is more of a 10 iron... at 47° it's more like what my first 9 irons were way back when. I look at it as if I really only carry 2 utility wedges, which I use in all sorts of situations. Both are multifunctional tools.

Yep. Couldn't hit sh$t off a shovel with the 64 so will now be canning the experiment and returning the 5 iron to it's rightful place in the bag. Will definitely retain the 4wedge setup as the 48 and 52 are predominently full wedges and i've fallen in love with the 56 I bought for Xmas. Still love the 60 so I can't pull that either.

I typically play a five wedge bag but have taken out my 62 and put in my 3 iron when I thought it might be beneficial. I think it really depends on what kind of course you play... if it's really long then maybe more long irons or hybrids whereas a shorter course that requires a lot of specialty around the greens may require more wedge options.

    • We had a member of our senior club who developed a mental block on pulling the trigger. I played with him to see what the membership was talking about. I timed him a few times when he would get over the ball. 45 seconds. He knew he had a mental block and would chide himself, “Just hit it!” Once on the green he was okay and chipping was a bit better. It was painful to watch him struggle. Our “bandaid” was to put him in the last tournament  tee time with two understanding players. We should have suggested to him to take a break from our tournaments. I agree with the idea that when a player realizes they have a problem, the answer is to go fix it and not return until they are able to play at an acceptable pace.
