    Does anyone use a wedge chart?

    If you do, how many yardages do you have for each club? 3 or 4?

    Also do you use it for PW through to LW?

    I’ve decided it’s something I’m going to do for this season, instead of trying to gauge the distance and hope that it will give me more confidence over those sub 100 shots

    I use the 4* as recommended by Vokey. But do believe in trial and error. Practice, practice, practice. Short game, most important part of the game.

    43/48/54/58. Have 2 distances in mind for the 43/48. 1 distance for the 54. Then mostly touch within 50 yards. Ball lie, and pitch of the most likely landing point and room to the pin may use any of the wedges for the same distance.

    My gaps are 6*, 48, 54, 60. Probably will go for a wedge fitting this summer. After my recent driver fitting with Titleist, I really question my former fitter (not associated with Titleist) recommendations.

    I have the same gaps—exactly 48°, 54°, 60°. And my Vokey 8 60° is my secret weapon for the bunkers!

    I guess Im not sure what a wedge chart is... that said, my set matching PW is my 140 club, 50 is 125, 54 is for 110, and the 58 gets 90. These are for full swings. Depending on the situation, the 54 & 58 are used in the bunker. Anything in the fairway from less than a full swing with the 58, I start looking at whether I can let it run out or if I need to land soft and hold. All of those shots are based on feel. Usually lean on the 50 for a majority of those scenarios, if I need to increase height for a particular shot the 54 gets it, but usually only if I need to stop it quick.

    4 Wedges: PW, 50 bent to 49, 54 & 58

    Instead of the clock system, I prefer to think 1/4, 1/2 & 3/4. I never take a full swing with the wedges.
  10. just swapped out the T100s 44* wedge for a 46* Vokey. my other Vokeys were 50* 54* and 58*.
    I like the consistent look at the bottom of the bag

    Thanks for the replies.

    Was chatting with a buddy the other day and he suggested that wedges should be 2° flatter than the irons in the bag.

    Do you all have your wedges bent flatter? Mine are standard/off the shelf Vokey SM10

    I"ve started working at a simulator that has both a target range and a short game range.. This allows me to work on different distances and different trajectories with each of my wedges and actually see the data associated with each shot. I carry T-250* (launch spec) irons 5-P, plus two Vokey SM11's- a 54D12 and a 60D12 bent to 59. My irons are all 2 degrees weak, so each is actually one club less than the number indicates. This means my 9 plays like a P and the P is actually a gap wedge. The latter is 49 degrees, not the "normal" 47 for the T-250* Pitching wedge. Like others have said , I don't play a full swing with any wedge, so my distances are 65 yds for the 60, 80 for the 54, 95 for the P, and 105 for the 9. I am working on the in-between and different situation distances. I've got a good feel so far for 45-55, 70-75, and 85-90. Still working on the 25-40 range, especially pitches. Most of those other distances are waist-high (club) swings with the club for the next longer distance.
