I think I really need one as I'm tired of choking down on the old PW to hit it 90 yards. My SW is 56 degrees. The pic above is 52. That sounds about right. I love Cleveland. Any other suggestions?

Get a 54 degree spin milled Vokey and bend it to 52 degree. Just be sure you adjust for the change in bounce because by bending the 54 to a 52 it will decrease the bounce of the club.

I love my Cleveland 588 wedges. Took some getting used to just because there are so many ways you can hit the ball with them, but I'm money with em now. I've got the 49 and 53 degree.

I bought a Ray Cook 52 degree wedge years ago. It's my favorite club.

oh - and I have a 60 degree Cleveland that I really like.

What club are you going to ditch? I bought a gap wedge and found I didn't use it that often, and stunk when I did. I hit my sand wedge about 90 yards though.

Sounds to me like he's bridging a gap between a pitching wedge in his set (usually 45-46 degrees) and a 56 degree sand wedge. I'd go with a 50 or 52 if thats the case. 50 if you tend to hit high anyway, 52 if not.

I hit my sand wedge about 85 with a big swing, but it's not as consistent as it is around 65-80 yards.

hence, gap

My PW is money from 105 - 125
