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.
In My Bag:
Driver: Cobra F Speed 10.5°, Aldila NV 55g Regular
3 Wood: Cobra F Speed 15°, Aldila NV 55g Regular
Irons: Cobra 2300 I/M 3-PW
Wedge: Cobra M 54°Putter: Yes! SophiaBall: TaylorMade TP Red

i got 4 wedges, PW,GW,SW and LW, but the most used one is my sandwedge. actually i have to buy a new one cause I used it so much that the grooves are gone


The one I use the most is the Lob wedge I just can control de ball prety well with it. I dont have a Sand wesge planing to buy one 54*. Any recomendation?

What is in my Ping bag:

7Wood: Tight lies 21* Graphite StffIrons: An old set of EYE2+ 4-PW Steel StiffWedge: vokey SM 54*10 and 60*08Putter: Studio Style Newport 1.5Balls...


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 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.
In My Bag:

Driver: 9.5° FT-i LCG
3-wood: 15° X Tour
Hybrid: 18° FT HybridHybrid: 23° Baffler ProIrons: X-20 Tour 5-9Wedges: CG 12 Black Pearl 46/50/56/60Putter: 32" X3Ball: TP BlackHome Course: Blackmoor Golf Club (136/71.2)

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.

    • Day 185 - 2025-04-03 Had a good 2.5 hour session at Golf Evolution. Kinda glad it was still wet and windy out today as I wouldn't have gotten such a good session in if I played. Got up to 93 MPH (with a pause) on my 6I and 130 MPH ball speed (on a different slightly slower hit, a bit more de-lofted than I'll want eventually).
    • I'm highly probable for the entire weekend, thanks for doing the hard work to set it up.  I can't wait for more details.
    • I take 2nd, is a confirmation that you can eventually win your major and also is good material for having a laugh about it in the distant future. 
    • I'm a relatively new golfer (<5 years) in my mid-thirties. So far I've spent most of my time and money on lessons and actually golfing. I'm currently a 90s-100s player, but hope to break into the 80s with lessons and practice. I'm definitely not of the mindset that flashy expensive clubs will help me play better...I try to make the assumption that my equipment is more capable than I am. That said, I do know that realistically that threshold does exist somewhere. I just have no idea where. At what point should I consider an upgrade from starter clubs to something I can grow into and improve with?  My stuff: Starter set (Callaway Strata) from Amazon. (3w, 5h, 9i-PW) Gently used Cleveland Wedges (LW, SW, GW) - My old ones were from a set from the late 90s, so I did upgrade these. Gently used TaylorMade M1 driver - The starter set driver had a regular flex, and I had several knowledgeable people tell me I should have a stiff flex Thanks in advance!    
    • Looking forward to this movie, it checks all the boxes for me. Indie Movie True Story Cast is all great character actors Walton Goggins! No Whammies!!!!!!!!!
