I used to use the PW that came with my set (47*) and added a 52*, 56* and 60* for a while, mostly only using the 52* and 56*. Sometimes a 60* lob wedge can be a great companion, but it is also so easy to hit a fat ball with, that I tend to trade it in for a 58*

Maybe I will opt for 2 wedges in future 52* and 58* only .....

why?

how big is the gap between 47* and 52*? it'll make the 52* redundant.

I carry a GW (50) 58, 64. I wouldn't mind carrying a 54 but I don't have many issues with the in between my 58 and 50. I can hit my 58 right at 95 and my 50 115. It is a big gap in distance but I like what I am carrying and don't want to drop a iron or buy another wedge.

I've got a 46º PW, 56º SW and a 62º Lob wedge. I'm having some trouble with the 62, and I'm thinking about swapping my current SW and Lob to a 52º GW and 58º SW.

Go for it!!

That's two 6 degree gaps - allow for some creativity without second guessing yourself on club selection - try to get a 52' that's good from the sand though (not a Titleist fanboy, but the Vokeys fit the bill here).

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.


My wedges (normal bag setup)
PW: 48°/7 (part of DCI 962 set): 110-120 yards
GW: 51°/10 (Snake Eyes): 105-115 yards, but more bounce than PW
SW: 56°/11 (Vokey SM): max 105
LW: 60°/4 (Cleveland BeCu): max 85

I waffle between carrying the GW and not, there are a couple of shots at my local club that are just dialed in for that particular club and I'm very confident as a result, which helps out. I might bend it up to 52° to give me a bit more of a classic 4° spacing, though it's obviously more about the actual distance gaps than it is the number on the sole. I need to re-establish those gaps at a suitable location here in the near future, given that my distances have changed lately thanks to working on my swing.

I have a 50 degree Dunlop Powerlift PW. I could probably hit about 75 yards with it, probably 85 on a good day.

Also, I'm looking to get a nice sand wedge. Any suggestions?

I carry a 50 degree Cobra Gap Wedge and a 54 degree and 58 degree Cleveland CG14. The 54 is without a doubt my favorite club in the bag. The Clevelands are great clubs. Great feel from the fairway and the bunkers.

I also hear that Callaway sand wedges are pretty good also

I've got the standard pitching wedge that came with my iron set along with a low-bounce 52 and high-bounce 56.

    • Since 99% of my tv watching is YouTube videos so is my golf watching. Seems to be mostly British stuff. 
    • When I got to Florida this season (seasons instead of years since the years overlap) one of the guys asked what I had done, said I was about twenty yards longer with my driver. Said that I had a different driver which was true but looking back it’s really the shaft that’s been the difference. It’s similar in principle to the Autoflex in that it’s light weight and also light flex. Since most of my clubs are bought used I have difficulty finding senior shafts most of the time and being old and slow that’s what I need. Bought the Callaway driver, for several years I preferred Ping drivers, because they only had a couple of used drivers with senior shafts in my price range and it’s been probably the best I’ve had. Longer and very forgiving, decent distance even on my mishits and almost always in play. Keep in mind that my swing speed is probably under 70mph. 
    • Day 17 - First round of the year. It took me about 6 holes to remember how to hit off grass. Short game was lacking, but the round could’ve been much worse. It’s nice that my new “bad” is my old “good.”
    • Yes this was what I was thinking you have two golfers same 5 HC same swing speed 110Mph ...one you changed the driver head to a 10yr old model head but the same loft etc the other you changed shaft ...now if its just 10yr old shaft of the same flex weight etc it would be more so the newer head IMHO ..but if the shaft was changed to softer flex lighter than player was use to then the shaft would be the winner IMHO
    • Interesting as I only recently upgraded my Callaway EPIC Flash driver head 9.5 with a Paradym 10.5 which come with a decent Diamana 60 stiff shaft ... year ago I was playing around with shafts and settled on Ventus black X6 .. I tried out both shafts in my new driver head and even tried out Diamana in my older driver head and no way did it work for me ... I also recently after having issues with my Mizuno. MP20 nippon 105 S irons I purchased new JPX923t with heavier shaft DG 120 S I was told by PGA coach the shaft would suit my swing far better and he wasn't wrong so for me shafts matter alot more so than even heads but the difference in the heads for my clubs wasn't massive
