I'm getting a 60 degree Vokey soon, so I think that will probably be my most used wedge, but for the moment I use my 54 degree the most, I can use that from anywhere it's so easy to hit.

I have a PW, SW, and 2 LW. One is technically illegal. I got it from wal mart, it's got some kind of super grip face that let's you spin the ball insanely. I can bring a ball back 25 feet with it on a full swing flop shot.

I carry four wedges (PW, Gap, SW, Lob). I use all of them, but probably the SW the most. Mainly because I chip with it a lot.

I would say I use my PW the most. but around the greens definitely the 60. It is so versatile and it's critical usually when I have missed a green and short-sided.

i use a 60' for for a full 55-60yrd shot other than that i only se it for obstacles when theres not much room the other side. ie out of rough over a bunker onto a 14 yrd wide green etc
normally use my 54' the most inside 90yrds even for the 45yrds shots i feel i can strike the ball better than with my 60' and still get good height for a soft landing only use 48' p wedge for anything 90 yrds to 130yrds and in situations close to the green. around the green i use anything from a 4iron to a 60' wedge depends on lie putting surface slope etc i dont use woods around green cant control them well i dont like the length of the club
.
My chipping has welll improved even tho im a 19 hcap i haven played enough to hand new cards in recently i shot 39'- 42 on nine hole outings so im pleased with my game at the mo.


sorry to bang on so much

i used to use my 56 for almost every shot inside of 100 yards but now i find myself using all 3 of my wedges fairly equally. i am definitely more comfortable with my 52 now than any other wedge

For everyone who is saying they enjoy using their sandwedge the most....is it because you are in the sand or unfavorable lies....or is it the sole's bounce that is making the difference? Reason I ask is that the larger bounce is for mitigating 'stuffing' the shot.

I love my 50* wedge so I always try to leave my ball 100 yards from the hole to give me the best shot at GIR.

Overall, I use a 58 degree sand wedge more than any other in my bag.

I use the 58 and 52 degree about equally on shots inside 80 yards, favoring the 52 if possible. I also use a pitching wedge and 9 iron on shots like this occasionally, if the green entrance is open and the pin back, where I want the ball to roll out.

Pitch shots around the green and bunker shots are almost all done with the 58 degree. Chip shots are either the 58 or 52, depending on length.

    • The term I hear most often is "double teeing" which means the course/club has starting times from both the #1 and #10 tee.  I have encountered this many times and we know if we are the first group off #10, we may well get to #1 and have to wait because there are groups still with tee times yet to tee of #1.  In most instances, where the course/club has a starter, he normally explains this situation.  In this case, the pro advised what you would could/would encounter making the turn to #1.  And, that is exactly what happened.  Probably would have been wise to talk to the pro after playing back 9 and ask when you could go off #1 since apparently that club does not double tee.   Regardless, the outburst towards the other group was uncalled for.  And, I don't blame the member for being upset.  As a member of a private club, you are responsible for the actions of your guest.  I have played many times as a guest in the UK and I am pretty damn sure my host was responsible for my actions while at the club.  I know at the clubs I have belonged to here in the US, that is the way it is.  As a matter of fact, the member may find himself being brought before management and facing possible suspension.  So, I don't blame him for being upset.  However, as the host, he really should have stepped up and put a stop to the OP's actions.  OP makes this statement "I now understand that standards are different on the "private course." But I'll take those lessons to the muni, too."  No, the standards are not different.  You, sir, seem to be just a bit hard headed and belligerent, even if you are college professor...which possibly explains a lot.   JMHO
    • Day 32: worked for about 10 minutes on my drill. Filmed it as well for a check in. I think it’s slightly better but still seeing some issues. 
    • Day 44 (26 Dec 25)  -  played in the Friday men’s shootout with a twist - used the Toney Penna persimmons and MacGregor blades - had a blast playing these clubs.  They really help in zoning in on making solid ball contact.  Scoring was solid - had several looks at birdie and had a few par saves.  Overall a day of focused course management. 
    • Day 2: 2025.12.27 Eighteen holes at Kauri Cliffs. Focusing on trying to keep flex in right leg during backswing.
    • Day 136 12-26 Had a different practice planned today but life happened. Worked on "wide to wide" and still working on remaining flowy. Starting the club head in front of the ball as a drill, is helping with the flow of the swing.
