What club is more advisable for hitting a 50-80 meter shot. I do have a 60° wedge and can easily get that distance out. I was thinking of getting a 56° or 54° wegde to fill in a gap. What do you think?

GolfGuru ~ 2009-08-24 09:16:44
Rather keep your 60 degree wedge for chipping around the greens. If you hit your 60 too hard you will start to lose direction and struggle with your distance control.

If you looking for another wedge remember sand wedges are set to about 56 degrees and pitching wedges at about 48 degrees.

So if you don’t have a sand wedge, a 54 degree would be best. Giving you an even 6 degree gap between your PW and your 60.
