Got a 56* Mizuno MP-R for free when I bought my MP-67's and loved it, especially the shape and that amazing grind on the sole. I recently replaced my Vokey 52 & 60 with the MP-R and love them a lot. The 56* is so easy to get out of the bunker with because of that grind.

Driver: : R9 SuperTri TP w/Matrix Ozik HD6X

Irons: MP-67 3-PW w/ DGS300

I use a Cleveland CG11 56 (low bounce) for almost everything now. I also have the Cleveland CG11 Gap 52 (medium bounce) and Lob 60 (medium bounce) wedges, but usually don't carry them. I have tended to leave the lob wedge out and carry an extra hybrid (I had the Hi-Bore 2 and have added the 3 because of the par 3's I play). I have never really felt that comfortable with a LW and feel I can do most of what I need to do with the SW anyway. Also, I recently purchased a set of Callaway X-18 Pro irons and then got the X-18 approach wedge (51). I like the continuity and feel of the X-18 better and don't really feel that having a specialized Gap wedge is that important.

Currently use the old Ping Tour wedge, 52 and 58.

Love the way both sit behind the ball, and both perfrom well enough, but the feel off the face is pretty dead so when I change I think I'll switch to Titleist or Callaway...

. . .I was going to buy a Cleveland or Titleist this year, but decided on a whole new set of TM CGB's. I went ahead and got the CGB Lob wedge to match the set! We'll see what happens!

I just replaced all three of my Cleveland wedges with....well you guessed three more Cleveland Wedges. Black Pearl CG12 52* (Standard bounce with Project X shaft), 56* (Standard bounce with Project X shaft) & 58* (low bounce with Project X shaft). I am yet to get to hit them because here in Ohio we are currently getting dumped on by 8-12" of snow (makes it kinda hard to practice). I have been practicing with them in my basement and they seem to have great feel and constancy. I can't wait for the snow to clear and for golf season to begin.

I use the spin milled Titleist Vokey oil can wedges 54 and 58 degrees. I find these wedges to be softer than the Cleveland wedges I used to play.

The Scratch wedges are by far the best I've ever used.

588 is cool but I think Ill be trying the 200 vokey instead soon...Im unsure of the feel a bit. Wish it was forged. vokeys arent forged either so maybe ill try a mizuno mpt instead. One can never have enough wedges either in the bag or at home imho

    • I've had a couple of good shots since the last time I posted, 1 a 90 yard approach that I manufactured with my gap wedge that I knocked to about 18 inches, 1 a ~140 yard 8 iron that I got to about 3 feet (pictured), but this week my best shot was a 60 yard pitch. It wasn't anything special but I did hit it out of a divot, so that's what I'm more proud of. Plus, i didn't really have any memorable shots this week.
    • Just a  follow up, I had the best lessons ever on gears with the best instructor! Wish I would’ve made the drive earlier in the year but put it together during a golf trip. Gears was incredible to see your swing in 3d with all the necessary data. I’ve had very few formal lessons in the past and a couple online but nothing compared to working with Erik. He made it  very comfortable and relaxed, patient with all my  questions and showed some swing comparisons of pros swings.    Our main focus was getting the pelvis to move in a better pattern and when he first pushed on my hip with that pvc going back it was like a “wow” moment. And to see the affects in real time just made it quicker to adapt and learn how to find it again, however, even without gears I’m sure it would’ve been an awesome lesson..it’s just nice for some players to see the facts, no debate… At the end of the 1st session I was shocked at the video seeing my pelvis move better, hips open, no early extension. I was literally like I can’t believe that video capture is me! I’m glad I had a second session the following morning, just to reinforce the earlier ideas and work on the next piece to complete the movement, and we still had plenty of time to mess around with lower priority ideas for later. I left that afternoon armed with a practice plan, he took extra time to show me what to look for on my own video and I got a copy of LSW. We’ll continue on evolvr for checkups until another road trip for sure! I also just ordered the stack system with his discount code to work on some speed training as well.    Just wanted to share my appreciation for all Erik’s help and anyone finding there way here like I did over the winter to give it a try!          
    • Day 8. Did a bit of setup and backswing work but hip is not ready to swing yet.
