To echo circle G, try a 60 going at pins, you'll hit some shots you never thought you had.

I'm a shitty golfer but for some reason I play a 60 on 90% of my wedge shots and do nearly all of my chipping with it. Don't understand why people dislike the club so much.

I can't hit the 52 in my bag to save my life, it's left, right or a hosel rocket machine for whatever reason.

Because they don't hit down on it and it rides up the face

Are there any thoughts can y'all add to help me with finding better consistency?



I saw this a couple days ago on Golf Academy with the old guy Martin Hall and Morgan Pressel. She said on less than full swing chips you should have 65% of your weight on your front foot to stabilize your swing and keep you from falling back a bit and blading the ball.

I have also heard Faldo talk about this same point on random CBS telecasts.

Been struggling with consistency from 125 in. This video is great. The last two days I worked on this shot at the range. I can tell it will make a huge difference. I couldn’t believe how much more spin I was putting on the ball. Night and day. Also lowered my ball flight which I needed on wedge shots.

I had no choice but to use my 60 around the greens yesterday because the greens were so fast. I used this shot once with a few attempts at the range and it worked as expected relatively well on a good strike. I'm starting to love my 60.

Coyote Ridge. The greens were fast AF. They weren't particularly hard to hit besides that long par 3 on the front but if you attacked the pin you needed lots of spin to keep it from getting away from you. The flops were helpful.
