TeeOhDoubleDee got a reaction from cksurfdude in Let's Talk Lie Angles
Back when I was doing club fittings I had a spreadsheet calculator and would have players hit their 5, 8, and SW. We'd then figure out the slope their lie angles would need to be through the set. Some need flatter long and more upright short irons. Most people seemed to be alright with the stock slope of lie angles. If someone required a different slope I'd order them in the middle and bend the upper and lower-range clubs to fit.

I don’t believe there is a one size fits all answer. I’ve always played my wedges 1* flatter than my PW.
This year during the S159 test, I chose Blue dots that were 1* up like my T100’s. Some folks say that’s a no but I’ve preferred this setup. I’ve played better and noticed much better results from my short game in this manner.
What I’ve learned in 36 years of playing is that lie angles should be adjusted to dial in your ball flight. If you hit your long irons left and short irons straight, adjusting the longer ones slightly flatter while leaving the short irons where they are could be beneficial.

I see where some of the confusion and discussion is getting off rack a little and why you are probably seeing differing information
This question makes is seem as if your lie angles should be the same rather than asking if wedges should be bent the same as irons are when adjusting lie angle.
There is no definitive answer on that because it’s going to be different for each person and just like with irons each wedge should be fit to the swing. So your fitter saying to do the same with the wedges is a bad recommendation and a a bit lazy. Your fitter should have had you test your wedges to see what adjustment they needed. That’s the only right answer and approach. For some they may not need to bend at all. Some may even need to go flatter than they are despite irons being upright.
The definitive answer is the lie angle on wedges should be flatter than the irons. So whatever your 9i is your pw should be flatter than that. You rest wedge may or may not need to be flatter than your pw and so on down through the rest of your wedges

I had been nipping at hitting it since the beginning of the year. Ground was just so soft for months that we never got much roll.
It was overall a great driving day for me. Followed up by the next round of barely being able to get out of the box. 🤦♂️ golf amiright?

So first goal has finally been achieved . I broke the 90 barrier for the first time and pared 16 - 18 to shoot 87 . I know doesn't sound like much but to me it's huge . Next goal is sub 84 and so on until I can get my game consistantly under the 80 mark and be a single digit handicap.

I was traveling this week and stopped by two separate tanger outlets. The adidas stores are having a big sale.
One pair - normal price
Two pairs - $60
Three pairs - $80
Four pairs - $100
i was able to get a few pairs of sneakers and found a pair of tour 360 golf shoes, each $25/pair since I got 4.
Wife and kids got shoes too.

Morning ladies and germs. I've been playing golf for around 6 years now with the last year practicing more to get better. Was shooting in the 100's, then moved to the 90's last year, this year I'm currently shooting low to mid 80's.
Golf is fun for the most part, I just like being outside.
It's another forum to chat about, not sure if I know anyone here yet.
Bentonville, Ar with the home course being Lost Springs GAC in Rogers.
Best things about it are the number of courses around the NorthWest Arkansas area of varying difficulties and price ranges. Worst things would be the private clubs I can't afford to be a member at LOL.
I work in the medical field, username was something that I was called as a teenager.

TeeOhDoubleDee reacted to KC Golf in Vessel Golf Bags - BEWARE!!
Wow. That’s crazy. Never seen that with a Ping or a Titleist bag.
I really hope Vessel does the right thing here. This is a premium bag so I would hope they have a premium customer service experience as well.
