Currently my wedge situation is
PW - 46 Maxfli fire (hate this club - head is too fat on it)
GW- 52 Vokey
SW- 56 Maxfli fire

I just realized I have enough travel points to redeem a free vokey. If you had your choice would you get the Vokey in a 48 and use that club as my new PW or better to get a 60 degree version and use it as a Lob wedge ? I hate my current maxfli 46 degree wedge so much that I actually took it out in favor of my old ping eye2 knock off that is old and beat up.
I just worry going to a 48 degree as my PW might be too much of a gap between that club and my 9 iron. which I am not sure what loft that is.

IMHO:
Replace the PW first with anotehr 46 / 47 that you like. Thats your 90 -110 club and the better that club is the less often you'll need your other wedges.
Then I would suggest a good 60 Deg LW and think about trading out your 5W

IMHO:

+1 .... I would not leave my 100 yard shot to a crapy stick!!!! I would go for a 48*...you can always open up the face of the 56* to get lob shot

It's the indian, not the arrow! But it sure is nice to have good arrows!!!!!

    • 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.
