I've been bouncing around using a lot of different wedges in the past 2 years. All the while, trying to figure out how to 'hit!' many different wedges (thus the handicap). Iv'e played wilson, mizuno, ping (eye 2s and s59(?), tours), cleveland (588, cg14,691), and now Im back to mizuno...

The main difference how these clubs 'swing' is the weighting: head heavy, hands heavy, or balanced

I was curious how better players like the feel of their wedges and why they love the wedges they have?!!

G10 (VS Proto 65 X) or 905S (speeder X) / X Tour 3W (VS Proto S) / Adams Idea Tour Proto 18* (VS Proto S) / S59 Tour, Z-Z65 Cushin (D2) / Mizuno MP-T 51-06 , 56-10, / Miz TP Mills #6 ~or~ Cleveland BRZ #5

Cg 12's Best wedges ever!!! I have tried lots of different brands, mizuno, ping, cleveland and vokeys.(demo'd them)
The Cleveland cg 12's were by the best ive hit/used. Ive only brought the one set, but I will not be replacing them for a long time.

The feel of them are so crisp, I guess the reason I like them because they were the first set I brought and I just seem to have so much sucsess with them. Yesterday 2 chip in's holded 1 shot from 75 in for eagle and 3 really nice sand saves. most other chips/pitch shots landed within 5 foot. So can't complain.

Ive never had that feeling with any of the wedges that I have used (Def have with other clubs though)! So far I do like the Mizuno's I just got.

    • Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing. 
    • _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.
    • Day 254 5-4 Arms off chest in backswing and downswing. Short swing, pause and then hit.  Hit foam balls. Keeping arching of wrist a focus as well. 
    • I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers. 
    • I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
