BruceLoG 0 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Bruce in south central PA Currently using: SM5 52 degree Ping S56 56 degree sand wedge Ping Tour 60 degree lob wedge Used a Hogan Beryllium copper wedge for many years in 80s and into 90s—haven't found anything that gives the same feel and confidence in the 10 to 40 yard range. Struggling to spin and stop balls from 30 to 50 yards. Would love to try the new/old design and materials. Current index: 13.4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacou19 6 Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Luc from Alberta Vokey SM5 (52-56 and 60 degree) Strenghts: rarely miss a green from inside 125 Weaknesses: Chipping and short pitches, I tend to chunk the ball so therefore I am often short 5.6 index (6 hdcp at my course) Luc P.S. Thanks for this chance, my very first set of clubs were Hogan blades given to me by my neighbor. I was 11 years old and didn't know any better so I loved them but I would never buy clubs like that today, too difficult to hit! And I even had a 2 iron in that set, which I did hit!!! -Driver: Taylormade M3 (Project X Hzrdus Yellow 6.0 set at 10.5 degree) -3 wood: Cobra King F6 (stiff shaft set at 15.5 degree) -Hybrids: Cobra F7 stiff shaft set at 19.5 and 23.5 degree -Irons: Mizuno JPX 919 forged 5 to PW ( Project X LZ 6.5) -Wedges: Vokey SM5, 50, 54 and 58 degree -Putter: Odyssey O-Works Red #7 (33 inches) I play between 70 to 80 rounds per year. Living in Alberta, Canada, our season is shorter and with work, that is all I can get in, but watch out when I retire... P.S. The picture is from my favorite course so far.
