Titleist Wedge Selector

[Notpaulrudd]

Just curious to see what lofts everyone is using. These were the ones recommended for me, and currently I’m using a 50°(jaws raw), 58°(Cleveland RTX) and a 41° pitching wedge (ping)

Isn’t 48 degrees the strongest loft they offer? 
 

I was a little surprised at my results as well BTW - my PW is 44 degrees and it went 50,54,60 for me. That would be two 6 degree gaps at the bottom of my bag - I hit my PW 110 to 120 - I’m not confident that I will get 110 out of a 50 and I’m unlikely to want to hit my 60 full so if I’m getting 85 out of the 54 I’d have a lot of ground to cover with that club.

46° is the strongest loft for a vokey wedge.

Did you say you hit partial shots with your wedges? Especially the highest lofted club. If you hit pw 110-120 you don’t need to 110 out of the 50° if you got 100-105 that would be fine. Assuming at 85 max out of 54 which probably shouldn’t be a full swing wedge either you have 15ish yard gaps between wedge which isn’t bad.

I’m actually not terribly familiar with them but that does seem pretty strong.

I can live with it - yes - I try to avoid full wedges under Pitching wedge and I can grip down on that club for the 110 yard shot - 

I'm just in a bad place in life right now, working 70 hours a week, every week with very few (read no) days off since the week before Easter.  I needed a good reason to wine.

46 and 48° wedges are pw wedge replacements for those who want to use a non set wedge. They aren’t that strong. Most current set pws are in that range and put a 44-45° on some sets

This is what i got. Not sure how close it is. I typically like a little lower bounce in the 60 but, we'll find out. Regarding loft, this is what i'd expect, because my pitching wedge is older so it has a weaker loft than clubs today. I like the 52 and 56 versus 50 and 54, because a 50 degree has always been difficult for me to hit partial shots, and i need that shorter yardage in my game.

It is quiet common for pros to carry 4-9 irons and 46 degree wedges. Really depending on the conditions and turfs they are going to be playing on.
