A 50* GW, choked down about a half inch to shave off a few yards.

Focus, connect and follow through!

Depends on where the pin is.

I can hit my 56 deg SW about that length but it has a good deal of spin on it with the Pro-Vs I use. I'd probably go with a 3/4 52 deg GW as well.

Make that a full swing on my TM RAC 52 degree wedge. This is, now, my most comfortable club for anything near the green.

I don't have a go-to shot from 100 yards, which is a large part of the reason I suck.  I believe I had 3-4 wedges in my hand this past weekend at around 90-110 yards with a wide open flag and I only made worse than par twice.

We need to work on this for the next 4 days then!!!

Seriously.  I don't even have a "locked in" full swing of any club to the nearest yard, let alone a 3/4 swing.

Probably my worst distance right now. I'm accumulating some mental scars lately from missing that shot too many times. Just for fun after our regular Saturday game we play an extra hole from 100 yards to the island green for a few bucks. Lots of balls in the water weekly (including a lot of mine). The foursome in front of us all hit the ball in the water last week.

I don't carry a club for that shot so if I'm playing pretty well I take a little off of a sand wedge and if I'm not playing very well I'm a little better at taking even more off of a pitching wedge and hope it holds the green.

(Then cross my fingers and hope for the best).

Last year those little shots were my strong point but this year my luck on them has vanished (so far). Of course last year I practiced that shot a lot out in the yard and this year I haven't. Maybe practicing actually does help. Ha ha!
