what is your go to shot from 100 yards in the fairway?

[WUTiger]

Probably a GW or a three-quarter 9i.

It depends. I can hit ~100 yards with my 52, PW, or 9 iron.

Ditto for me too

I prefer to avoid if I can because it's more of a feel wedge /9iron

I rather be 120 yards or inside 75 yards.

Interesting. I'm thinking a shorter swing means more control for most here....

So with that 56, that's a very lofty 100 yards?

Very lofty. That's why some people are recommending setting it back in the stance and an abbreviating the finish like Phil Mickelson's technique for punch shots to lower the flight.

It just find it really curious why I am getting so many strong responses from @No Mulligans and @SavvySwede without any concrete examples why what I am stating does not make sense to them? Very strange. . .

Yes, I was going to request a merger of this topic to your thread, but just got caught up in the subject. . .

Yeah here it is, Erik

 

[CR McDivot]

My 9i (46*) is 100-110. Easy clean strike fits well, with enough spin to stop well on any but a rock hard green.

This is a fine topic, most threads have ignored approaches in the range of 150-75. Very important to be accurate here, IMHO.

[DrvFrShow]

Anything from a 7 iron to a GW depending upon the lie.

[Mike Boatright]

Gap wedge or draw sw depends on wind and pin placement.

[Ernest Jones]

That's a choked down 56 for me. 

Or a topped driver...

[jamo]

Smoooooooth sand wedge.

[boogielicious]

I use a variety of clubs but more often a 3/4 PW. A full gap or sand wedge can work too depending on wind and if I need to carry the whole way.

[djfajt71]

Anything from 8I-PW.

[disaster]

For me, a full 54° wedge is 95m under normal conditions, which is slightly longer than 100yrds. So I'll take a nice full, but smooth 54°.

[RH31]

Standard 100 yard shot is between my SW(90yds) and GW (110) so I choke down a little on the GW and make a 3/4 length swing.

[Dan42nepa]

If i choke down to the bottom of the grip of my g30 9 iron and swing normally, trackman says it carries 100 yards. So far, on the course it seems to be correct.

[newtogolf]

Sand wedge or gap wedge depending on lie.  

[pganapathy]

My PW is about 120 and my full SW is about 100, so depending on how I am hitting either one of those.  Of course, in a situation where those clubs won't do or I want or need to hit a different type of shot, then whatever is needed for that (5 wood onwards I guess).
