i play Wilson Staff 48 & 58 wedges - needed something to split the difference & NOBODY makes a 53 degree wedge anymore (OK, Cobra) ... so I found a Mizumo 53 which I like...

I play Wilson Staff Di9 wedges @ 46, and 49.5 degrees with Lynx LxW in the 52 and 60.  The Wilsons play high and straight and the Lynx are great when I need to spin the ball.

I like the feel of BeCu wedges(See Signature for what I use),  I am looking for a Wilson BeCu wedge to replace the Hogan,as I like Wilson wedges the best. IMHO I think the BeCu Sandy Andy is the best sand wdge ever made.

I had been playing mizuno faldo wedges since I started and I absolutely loved them but my 60 was my all purpose club so the grooves were just about done. I just bought a vokey 60-07 to replace it and am going to try it out today. If all goes well I maybe be completing the vokey set for my bday next month.

Playing callaway diablo edges in the pw and aw, Mizuno mpt 53* sand wedge ( low bounce andusedfrom fairway) anda 58* Wilson tw9 12* bounce for sand shots and deep rough. Ilike the OEM aw because it is used for normal fairway shots@ 110 yards, the sw is 90-100 yard club. In reali, play what feels comfortable to you. The important factor is to find the bounce that works with your swing and course conditions.

I've never had a full matched set of wedges.  Currently use four wedges... Mizuno, Vokey, and Callaway (2).  Wedges don't have to match, but you do have to like the look, feel, and get good distance control.

    • Day 29 (31 Dec 25) - played a casual year-end 18 with a couple of friends.  
    • Day 457 - 2025-12-31 Stayed after some GEARS Hybrid stuff with my senior girls and got some work in. Also, kicked Tegan's butt at a chipping contest with a wedge that has a lousy toe profile.
    • Day 141 12-31 Reconnecting arm and club face work. Making sure left wrist is arched only on the downswing. Not doing full swings, im pausing at the top and will do a few rehearsals.  Hit a few real balls  after, and had some curve way left. 
    • That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 40 yrs My current handicap index or average score is: 4.0 factor My typical ball flight is: Straight however sometimes slight draw. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: squirt to the right due to to much arm not enough turn.
