The sand wedge is normally my weapon of choice.I do love my 64* lob wedge for those tight up and downs though

56* RAC with 14* bounce.

User it for 80 Yards & in approach, most chipping & pitching. Tho I do use my 52* or 60* for tigh lie chipping, since they have lower bouncd (7* & 8*).

In the past I used my titelist vokey 52 degree gap wedge the most because when I first began I had the awful habit of leaving wedge shots short. However as my game has improved I have switched to my Wilson dynaseries 56 degree sand wedge. I personally love my sand wedge now that I learned how to control distances with my wedges, now all I have to do is learn how to put consistent spin on my approach shots.

I use my 54 degree the most....but I'm using my 60 degree quite a bit more than I used to.

I bring my 48* PW and my 60* LW every time I miss a green. 90% of the time I use my 60*, but if I have a lot of green and want to bump and run it I will use my 48*. I was using my SW out of bunkers, but got a new 60* with more bounce so I am using that out of the bunker now. The only time I use my 54* SW is from 85-105 yards.

i use my 60 for pretty much all greenside shots, but ill try and use my 52 more because my spin off my 60 is inconsistent and sometimes i dont get any spin and go way past the pin or i get too much and come up short. but anything from 40m metres and closer i use 60

It's close between my 60* and 56*. I'd say the 56* because i chip with that club.

I really like to use my gap wedge for all shots around the green. I feel that I have to swing the SW and LW too hard for the same result. That is unless I have to carry something with the pin right behind. I love my Mizuno wedges!

I am most comfortable with my sand wedge right now but I just bought a new one today because it felt amazing when I hit it. Plus, you can't go wrong for 30$

My most used wedge has got to be either my PW (48*) or my SW(54*).

That is tricky.

I have the most flexibility with the sand wedge and I use it for chipping the most, so I have to say the sand. But that all depends on the golf course that I am playing. Longer courses, I do not use it as much, and shorter courses I use it much more.

My 58*/12* SW/LW gets the most action. I think the 58* wedge is the most versatile wedge you can have. If you can learn how to use it properly it can easily take the place of both the 56* and 60*. Not to mention it takes away all the guess-work you can have with the 56 and 60. Less thinking=better golf.

My 64*, as I always chip with it if it's near the green. I also use it for flops.

    • Day 5- Slow,  short swings with short practice club. 
    • Lemme guess….’ We don’t want any confrontation so nobody says anything.’ Sheesh…..Call him out and fix the problem.
    • Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.
    • Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.
    • That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.
