Depends on the course.

Shorter courses I'll play 3 wedges (51-55-59). On long courses I go to 2 wedges (53-59).

+1

Full swing distances:
PW - 135
52 - 120
56 - 105
60 - 80

Gives me really nice coverage in the closer scoring range... Working on my 1/4 and 1/2 distances lately.

52 and 60. I only use 60 for bunker and flop shots. My 52 is versatile. I rather choke down or take short swings rather than have a full swing.

Two: 52-56. If I need more loft I just play the 56 more forward in my stance!

4 wedges, I love my wedge game. With a good Pro V1 and I'm within 100 yards, I can usually give myself a realistic one putt each time.

Pitching Wedge
Gap Wedge
Vokey 56 degree
Vokey 60 degree

considering reducing to a 52-58


3 wedges is most effective if you can dial in your distances within 110 yards by wedge, which typically means not having to hit a "full wedge" all the time. 52-58 is good 2 wedge set up if you only want two wedges.

PW-47
GW-52
SW-56

I am much more accurate with my 56* than I am with a 60*. I like having consistent distances between clubs as well.

Driver-10.5
3 wood-14
2 hybrid-17
3 hybrid-20
4 hybrid-23
5 hybrid-26
6 iron-30.5
7 iron-34.3
8 iron-38.3
9 iron-42.5

Those specs are according to Ping.
