I read that as:

Man, I wish. Lately, my bread & butter is any distance >120 yards from the green where I still have a chance make GIR with a fairly full swing. Very inconsistent dialing in half and three-quarter wedges for the past two weeks.

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

Lol well, you know, 15 ft, could be 25ft, and if I do it once a round then it must be my average!

You go girl (insert side to side head movement and finger snap).

It's weird but my purest iron shots are when I'm hitting over, under, or around a tree. I was visuallizing hitting over a tree at the range on Wednesday - it was working.

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

Maybe we should go for a round sometime. I'll melt the ice

No I believe you, just some power there. Do you play it back very far?

my bread and butter is between 140-150yds... in Golf terms that is a smooth crisp 7i or 8i for me.... I wish it was my 100yds and in

Big ups to Charl Schawartzel for climbing from #2 999 all the way to #2 on the rankings.

100 yards with my 60. I feel good about my shots out to about 170(7i)

inside 95, I start having trouble with fat shots and all sorts of other terrible swings.

110 yards with my gap wedge. I'm almost always within 10ft of the hole if I'm hitting off the fairway. However, I'm almost always in the rough from 110 yards away.
