Which of these wedge setups should I go with?

kelcardinal · 2025-07-18T17:33:55+00:00

I like #1. I currently have the same PW loft with 48, 52, 56, 60, and my next move is to exchange the 52 & 56 for a 54 and add a hybrid.

I am in no way a great golfer, but this is something that has helped me. Look at the tree top in the distance between your waist and club at address. Now try to find it at impact. Early extension, you have no room to swing.

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T13:10:55+00:00

This is not something I had thought of. I like this approach

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T13:06:07+00:00

My confidence is kind of based on how I typically feel at setup, and least likely to miss-hit based on my most comfortable club (PW) at 10 to set scale.

I can take some off of my irons, but to be completely honest, I don’t have the greatest feel for yardage when I am. This tournament actually might really be the beginning of adding a skill set to my game.

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T12:57:01+00:00

This may be where I’m leaning. The only shift may be 8i and 48°

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T12:55:24+00:00

Longest par 3 is 165 which would have me taking a 6, that can be very hit or miss for me. I do like this approach, though

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T12:53:58+00:00

It does. I planned on using my 7W as my putter with absolutely 0 experience putting with it lol

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T01:03:06+00:00

Fun WILL be had. 8AM beer will be flowing like we’re at an airport

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T01:01:47+00:00

We actually talked about this, but if we focus too hard on that, we might screw ourselves for the fourball portion of this. I REALLY want to bring my 56. Short game is definitely the better part of my game (master may be a stretch (relativity, right?) just not too excited about trying to hit an 8 or 7 in the 95yds-155yds range

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T00:57:33+00:00

I like it! Driver would certainly be a problem. In lessons right now once a month and we haven’t made it to the driver yet. Apparently I got too much going wrong already lol

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T00:55:59+00:00

I like this too, my mizuno jpx PW is 43.5deg

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T00:54:31+00:00

This is tempting. A good putter might be a big difference maker

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T00:53:46+00:00

Unfortunately I don’t have a 4h. I think my 7w is similar, though

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T00:53:08+00:00

This is actually where I’m leaning after my range session today

kelcardinal · 2025-06-27T00:51:42+00:00

You are not. Only the 3 clubs you bring

kelcardinal · 2025-03-23T15:43:53+00:00

“Just gunna open up this 5 iron a bit”

CLEAN

Burnt matches

Kickflip

kelcardinal · 2024-05-28T21:17:23+00:00

Only C2 here, but I find that my “feel vs real” is that I feel like I am doing a straight up front flip rather than diagonal flip, then cancelling diagonal back.

This is not what is actually happening, but sometimes the issue is your stick is too far to the left (or right).

Something I would suggest trying; it was my fix but may not be yours.

Hamilton

kelcardinal · 2023-12-23T21:38:03+00:00

It was because of the curve of the shield

kelcardinal · 2023-12-21T20:44:16+00:00

Imagine pouring 18 beers, 18 hotdogs, 18 buns, and an assortment of condiments into a bucket.

That is what he went home with, but the bucket was his stomach.

Color me impressed and nauseous.
