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 35 (15 Dec 25) - Short session today focused on exaggerated weight shift using left heel trigger.  Hit a few pitches using the process to help capture the feel. 
    • Day 125 12-15 Half swings with flow drill. Focused on rhythm, loading trail side then getting to lead side correctly. Hit a few foam balls but mostly drilling without ball. 
    • Never practiced golf when I was young and the only lesson ever taken was a driver lesson. I feel like I'm improving every year. However, the numbers don't support my feeling about improving. I usually drop to 12-13 during the summer while playing the familiar courses around home and then go on golf trips in the fall to new courses and increase to end the year between 15-17. Been a similar story for a number of years now but hey, it's the best thing there is in life so not too bothered but reaching 9.9 is the objective every year. Maybe a few lessons and practice could help me achieve it since I pretty much have no idea what I'm doing, just playing and never practice.
    • I am semi-loyal. Usually buy four dozen of one ball and only play that until out and then determine whether to continue or try another one. Since starting my semi-loyal path to success, I've been playing the below, not in order: ProV1 ProV1x ProV1x left dash AVX Bridgestone BXS Srixon Z-star XV I am not sure if it has helped anything, but it gives a bit of confidence knowing that it at least is not the ball (while using the same one) that gives different results so one thing less to mind about I guess. On the level that I am, not sure whether it makes much difference but will continue since I have to play something so might as well go with the same ball for a number of rounds. Edit: favorite is probably the BXS followed by ProV1/Srixon Z-star XV. Haven't got any numbers to back it up but just by feel.  
    • Will not do it by myself, going to the pro shop I usually use after Cristmas for input and actually doing the changes, if any, but wanted to get some thoughts on whether this was worthwhile out of curiosity.
