What's your bread and butter yardage

[Meddle]

115 with 51*, full swing.

[popeyegolfer]

130yds for 52* wedge. Full swing I hit it 130 almost every time.

[Harmonious]

If possible, I will lay up to 60 yards (1/2 SW) or 80 yards (3/4 SW) on unreachable par 5's. Usually gives me a pretty good look at birdie.

Anything over 100 yards is unlikely to get close enough to make the putt. I used to feel bad about that, but the best on tour this year from 100-125 yards is Brad Faxon - 14'-9". He probably does make those putts, though.

[Stretch]

I read that as:

About 450 yds - nice Driver.

Thought "Man that's long, even for the Sand Trap!"

I'm another 100 yarder. Will usually hit a knockdown wedge from there.

Good stat.

[wrx_junki]

I am comfortable only when on the putting green/fringe. My iron and wedge game needs SERIOUS work.

[woodzie264]

2' I almost never miss.

i thought i was the only one

[sean_miller]

Definitely this.

10-12 feet is really close.

I also like the 56* from 100 and the 50.5* from 122, but anything <20 feet on the proper side of the hole and I'm happy.

[Leftygolfer]

Closer the better for me into maybe 40 yards. That shot is hard to judge exactly how it will react on the green. I'd much rather be 50 yards than 70. I'd say a yardage I really like is 65-67 yards. It is a really confortable 64 for me. Then from 85-90 is a really confortable 58. But if I'm playing ok, I feel like anything inside of 100 is a real birdie chance and I'm not happy with anything outside of 20 feet. 15 feet is a good shot for me.

[Fontaine]

When I have a PW-9-8 left I'm happy. So 100-150 yards..

[Pyranha]

87 yards. Sets up a nice full swing 60 deg wedge that I don't have to go hard at. Definitely one shot that I know pretty much exactly how far it's going to go every single time.

-C

[Kieran123]

8 iron 150-160 yards

[Golfwolf]

Anywhere between 60-115 yards, that puts some loft of wedge in my hands. If I have to lay up I usually try for 100 yards.

[kpaulhus]

90-yards 52* wedge. It's a happy place for me

This is me. 95 yard 52* and Im withing 15ft, usually.

That would put you about #25 on the PGA tour!

From 75-100 yards: http://www.pgatour.com/r/stats/info/?075

This thread is the short game version of the 300+ yard driving average threads.

[Kieran123]

8i from 150-160 and I am usually within 10 feet, as long as I don't hit it fat, thin, off the toe, shank it or miss the ball entirely.....or pick the wrong club, or fart in my back swing

j/k

That last bit is nice when you're golfing with strangers. It really breaks (melts?) the ice.
