I'm kind of a wedge junkie, I think I have at least 6 sets of wedges.

My favorites are:

TM RAC TP Satin -- I have a 52º/8º, 54º/14º, 58º/6º and 60º/6º

Inazone CNC Spin Milled Satin -- 50º/8º, 54º/14º, 58º/4º (No one has probably ever heard of these but they are really nice wedges, very Vokey SM-like). Being a club builder I like to experiment and these wedges have found their way into my bag as I have been hitting them really well.

For wedges on a budget, the Adams Watson Classic satin wedges are hard to beat. Very good quality at an inexpensive price.

What's in my bag (most of the time)

Exotics 12°, Aldila VS Proto 65S
Exotics CB1 4W, 16.5°, Fujikura Stiff
3DX DC Ironwood 20°, 23°, 26º Hybrids, Proforce V2 Stiff Acer XP905 Pro 6-PW, Dynalite Gold S300Inazone CNC Spin Satin GW 50°/8°, SW 54°/14°, LW 58°/4°Boccieri...

I used to carry another sandwedge with a smaller bounce for the fairways, but that put me at 15 clubs and had to take it out of the bag for tournaments

i have the three major wedge companies (Cleveland, Titleist, Callaway) in my bag. a 52.12 cleveland cg14, 56.08 titleist vokey spin milled, and 60.10 callaway x-tour. i believe the set up is near perfect because the cg14 plays similar to an iron, the 56 can spin around the green and in the bunkers, and the 60 degree is one hop n' stop from 40 yards in.

i play a 54* tmade rac tp, 58* vokey spin milled(originally 56), and a 62* Cleveland cg10/cg12(both originally 60*. the reason behind this is that i'm a long hitter and a good wedge player. i needed to consolidate some room so i dropped my 52* but had a weird gap between my pw and 56*. the 54* seemed like a natural fit. i would play just 54* and 58*(and often do) but i hit my 62* best from the sand and its great for flops and touch shots around the green.

I had a Callaway Forged Vintage PW 48* and a set of Callaway Forged Jaws Vintage GW-52*, SW-56* and LW-60*. I just purchased Taylormade TP XFT GW-52.09, SW-56.12 and LW-60.10 and a PW to go with my new R9 Irons. I haven't met a TM club I haven't fallen in love with so thats why I am making the switch in irons and wedges. If anyone is interested I am selling the Jaws wedges and the vintage PW.

I'm in a transition.

used to be:
- mizuno mx-25 PW 46°, mizuno mpr 52/07 GW, mpr 56/13 SW

now:
- mizuno mx-25 PW, 46°, mizuno mpr 52/07 GW, vokey sm 58/08 oil can with kbs tour black nickel


end result to be:
- 710cb pw 47 (or mizuno mp63/mp53 PW, to be decided when released), vokey sm 52/08 black nickel with kbs tour black nickel, vokey sm 58/08 oil can with kbs tour black nickel

3 wegdes are more then enough for me. half swing, three quarter swing and full swing with each of them gives me 9 distances. Plenty of choice for my taste. The change away from mizuno to vokey was an eyeopener. The vokey grind is so much better for me than the mpr mizuno grind. The 58/08 requires a teeny bit of extra attention in the dry deep sandy bunkers but offer soooo much more versatility around the green. I'm in love with it.

cleveland ta7 pw, 45*
titleist vokey oil can wedges 52, 56 & 60*

great wedge setup for me although i think i could drop the 56, 60 and just use a 58 or something. my gap wedge is probably one of my favorite clubs in the bag. i lay up to 100 yards when i get into trouble because there is a decent chance i can get down in 2 from there by hitting the 52* close and making a putt.

In my bag right now are my PW (46*), a GW (52*), SW (56*), and LW (60*)... I'm considering picking up a 58* to replace the SW and LW and then adding the 4 iron back to my bag.

    • 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
