46° Cobra King Tour - 130-135 normal full swing
50° Cobra King Tour - 120-125 normal full swing
56° Callaway Jaws Forged - 100-110 normal full swing, but I use this a lot from 50-110 yards
60° Callaway Jaws Full Toe - really only use around the greens. My wedge game got better when I stopped trying to hit 90 yard lob wedges and instead hit a controlled sand wedge.

P, 48, 52, 56

Have tried a 60 but opening up the 56 is sufficient

How do you like the Jaws?

I love them. They play just like the old Cleveland wedges did. Which I loved. Not surprising since they are designed by Roger Cleveland.

45 degree wedge
50 degree gap wedge
55 degree sand wedge
60 degree lob wedge
I don’t hit them any certain distances, I play by feel a lot, will flight them down, or will hit full shots, I use a lot of imagination with these clubs.

Titleist T 300 PW (43*)- 125
Titleist T 300 GW (48*)- 105
Titleist T 300 GW2 (53*)- 85
Cleveland RTX (58*)- sand, flops, chips to severly elevated greens

Distances were for normal swing with calm conditions.....and yes I'm old so I don't hit them far.

55 Degree RTX Zipcore full face (9degree bounce) 90-110
60 Degree RTX Zipcore full face (9degree bounce) 0-90 This is my go to club around the green to pitch shots. Probably should experiment with other shots just what Ive always been comfortable with

have a friend that made a 64* wedge for me years ago...
setup looked like the ball would hit me in the face...
never put it in the bag till a year ago...handier than I thought but it won't stay in the bag...

You must have lush turf instead of the thinned out hard pan I play on at times.

Also the sand must be fluffy where you play the most. Out bunkers vary from thinned out to fluffy.

47 degree
51 degree
56 degree
60 degree

Mizuno T20. Love true forged wedges.
Not fake forged like Vokeys.

Btw, any PW stronger than 46ish is ridiculous and not a PW.

The yardages are also pretty funny.

I swing a driver a tick under 120 mph and will never hit a 56 degree wedge over 100 yards.

48 - Cleveland CG12
52 - Cleveland CG12
56 - Cleveland CG12
P - stock P wedge (46 degree I believe) in Callaway X forged iron set, use this for full swings from 110-120. I struggle to hit my other wedges consistently when swinging full so I don't but I do love them from shots 100 and in. Pulling my short irons (8 and below) and wedges with full swings is one of the biggest issues I've always had in my game

Do you carry 5 wedges, 3-9 iron (7 clubs), a driver, and a 3 wood? Do you not have a distance gap in there somewhere?

Why do people obsess over the name of a club? It's a tool and there happen to be 14 or them of varied lofts in a bag. It's not a dick measuring contest. Also, plenty of people hit 56, 60 further than 105. Just because you don't doesn't make it incorrect or impossible.
