Wedge Configuration

[coop6340]

I'm getting new wedges and I can't decide whether to get a 46*, 52*, and a 56*. Or a 46*, 52*, and a 58*. Tell me what you think.

Most people (including myself) start with the loft of their PW and then add wedges in 4 degree increments....so if your PW is a 48, then you'd add a 52 and 56 and possibly a 60...

Why are you talking about me....

My PW is a 48*, a pro a the club I was a member of told me to get a 52, so I did, now I'm looking at a 56.

spot on for me but I believe my pitch is a 47* but my distances are all about 10 yards and pitch is 15 above the 52*

my 56* is my favorite and most used wedge.

I carry a 47°, 51°, 56°, 60°.  I wouldn't worry about what degree spacing so much as yardage gaps.  if you get a chance try out a buddies wedges and then see what kind of yardage gap you have between each club.  But as others have stated if you are just going on a general rule try to go 4-5 degree spacing.
