So I currently play a Nike SV Tour 56* with 14 bounce, with two pieces of lead tape, and a DG spinner shaft and an inch extension. I really like its heavy feel and the way it sticks, I currently hit between 100-105. I'm trying to find a good lob wedge and gap wedge but I want to get something different and a little newer. I want something with a heavier head and spins really well, and price and brand doesnt really matter. What do y'all suggest?

Lots of unhit wedges from a year or two back are available from $99 to $70.

Do you want 1" extentions on all your wedges? If so, you would need extra weight in the head to keep the swingweight the same. You might need to custom order wedges, or find a good clubfitter who can tweak wedges for you.

Focus, connect and follow through!

I get all of my club building done by a master club fitter in Houston, since I'm a little taller I have all my irons/ wedges and 1.25inches past standard so I can actually swing correctly, which made a big difference. But I'm trying to find some different wedges that are a little heavier and a lot of spin.

    • Day 19: worked with foam balls for a while. Going slow to make sure I’m rolling and twisting. It feels weird, which is good. Going to take more work, but I’m on the way I think. 
    • Day 39 (16 Apr 26) - Back to easy swings as the lead foot was overly tender from yesterday - stuck to some easy pitches with wedges and a few 1/2 tempo swings with 6i.  Was good to slow down and work on setup and overall alignment…
    • I saved the ball and wrote the details -- "my first eagle," course, hole number, and date on it.  Maybe I should write the yardage and the club too.
    • Day 8, April 16.  Continued pelvis turn drills after work today;  I've already spent 20 minutes doing this, am taking a short break (and have fulfilled the challenge for the day) and then I'm back to it.  
    • Played 9 holes tonight. Driver is hit or miss, but I haven’t practiced that at all. It was a struggle to get sequencing down for the arms and lower body. I definitely have to do my downswing wrist piece a lot or I just push the crap out of the ball. Pitching needs some work. Chipping was good, chipped in twice. Putting was fine.  Shank Counter: 2
