Hi guys,

I'm just doing some wedge research and comparing typical lofts carried in bags.

With the move to many strong lofted sets and PW's that have lofts like traditional 9 irons, it has forced many players to change their thinking when carrying wedges.

Please post here all the wedges you carry, including the PW and what all their lofts are.

ie. for me

AF-701 PW 45*, Grind Studio Proto 50*, Gold's Factory Stage 5 57*

Thanks!

I carry 3 wedges including PW.

Type J PW 46*, Cleveland CG12 52* & 58*

I struggle with this, can't seem to make my mind up and go back and forth with a large contributing factor being the Golf Course. Long course where I'm hitting middle irons to the Green I usually carry my PW-47*, 56 & 60*

Shorter courses where I know I'm going to have a bunch of approach shots 100yds and in I throw the 52* in the bag and drop the 18 or19* depending on which clubs I have in the bag. And then there's the club ho in me that loves to experiment.

Currently using 4 wedges

V4 48*= 135

V4 52*= 120ish

V4 56*=110

V4 60*=95

but I'm a converter from 58*sw I went to 56 and 60.

TourStage X-Blade 701 PW - 46*, Geotech Special Grind - 50*, Geotech Special Grind - 56*

With the Grind on the Geotech 56*, I can open it up and make it a 60* as needed (a "two'fer" as they say where I live).

PW - 47 GS-CB , 46 TS X-CB1

AW - 52 GS-SW / V3

SW - 56 GS-SW / V3

LW - 60 GS-SW / V3

Four wedges for me......

Epon 301 PW 48* (120 yards) All have KBS tour shafts.

Epon 208KGX 52* (100 yards)

Epon 208KGX 56* (80 yards)

Scratch 60* (60 yards)

PW (Mizuno JPX E-500): 43 degrees

AW (Mizuno JPX E-500): 48 degrees

SW (Mizuno JPX E-500): 54 degrees

SW (Cleveland Tour Action): 57 degrees

48/53/58 for me

When I carry four wedges its just to many options running through my head before the shot. Especially around the 80-90 yd range.

PW (TS X-Blade 701) - 46*

AW (TS X-Wedge 101LB) - 50*

SW (TS X-Wedge 101LB) - 56*

LW (Titleist Vokey SM) - 62*

Cleveland 900 46°

48* 53* 58*

I actually change wedges/lofts depending on time of year.

Normal setup:

PW = 45

AW = 50

SW = 55

LW = 60

In harder summer conditions:

PW = 45

AW = 52

SW/LW = 60

X/LW = 64

"Maybe" some gaps with the "summer" lofts, but with the harder conditions....seems to work for me.

Don't carry a 3 iron, but there is a big gap btw 4 iron and 5W. Considering going 53/ 58 when course plays long.

45, 50, 56, 60

The PW is a full swing club as is the 50. I use the 60 for most shots around the green, low or high, when I have a tight spot as the target. The 56 is used when I want to make sure I keep it low or want some roll out. Basically, the 56 and 60 are my 2 options around the greens.
