okay today we're talking about the most misunderstood clubs in your bag which
are your wedges and if you want to shoot lower scores you have to get the right
clubs for your game so today we're specifically gonna talk about the
60-degree wedge and how to pick the right one for you let's go okay so how
do you pick the right 60-degree wedge for your game which is a critical Club
around the greens and the bunkers you know just a great a great shot saving
tool so you know if you're like me which one do I pick oh I get them all check it
out I'm using the SM sevens so I've got a 12
degree a 12 degree D grind I've got a 14 degree K grind I've got an 8 degree M
grind I have a 4 degree L grind and I've got a 10 degree s crying what do I use
let's do it I'll show you
okay picking the right 60 is not about how good you are like oh I'm a scratch
player so I need the four no bounce or I'm a high handicapper so I need all the
bounce and a giant soul that has nothing to do with it it really has to do with
conditions you play on the type of swing you have your attack angle and what are
the different shots that you like to play do you like to open up the face or
you like to keep it square and shut so all of those factor into choosing the
right 60 degree so if you're a steep swinging person you might want you
probably want the wide sole with a lot of bounce
so you come down steep and it keeps the leading edge from digging into the
ground you don't want that so think about there the wide saw a lot of bounds
for those steep angles now when you're choosing your wedge and your 60-degree
wedge your see if you play that out of the sand this is gonna be a huge
decision-making factor for you like you play out of fluffy sand all the time or
do you play out a hardpack sand what is it this is kind of a grainy mid fluffy
so for me I use my 60 out of the bunker so that my sand shots are very important
to me I have to have the right one so I don't like a ton of outs because it
balances it bounces too much mess hand wouldn't this hand gets hard packed it's
hard to play a lot about out of the bunker but I don't like no bounce I
don't like that and so I like a mid down I got just 12
well it's only you think it's a lot about but it's got this grind not as d
grind that just kind of curves away some of the heel so I can open up the face
and I'm not adding loft so you've got to think about what kind of see a chance
you play and will kind of sand you play on him what your shot is again is it
steep because then you want that wide sole and a lot of Bounce is it a shallow
swing so you want a little less bounce maybe a less soul
or I like soul when I want it and then when I open up the face less so that's
me so these shots here in the rough to a type in if they scare you a little bit
or a lot of it I would go with the wide sole bounce a lot of balance okay that's
what I would do personally if it if you are a little unsure
just made it I'm telling you I might keep this one so if you're a little
unsure about the shot and you want to make sure you get through the rough wide
so a lot of bounce and square face right I don't I didn't open that now if you
like to open it up a little bit I like to open that face up a little bit
personally get a little extra height even though I just made that last one so
I'll go with the little thinner sole but I'll select a grind this is a 12 degree
balance de grind takes a little grind off the back edge so I can open it and
I'm not adding more bounce and I can slide it heel through a little bit
easier that's what I like
but that's if you'd like to open that face up and that's what I like to do so
you what what do you like to do are you open the face or keep it square and then
the Koran you got to match the grind to your shot okay so how would you play
this shot right here where do you go where do you go with this there's two
ways I like to play this one is with a lot of bounce so we'll go back to that
big Sol lot of bounce and I'll just chunk it fat and let it roll on the
green I get way behind that ball I love that shot but some of you don't like to
do that I get it so then I might go with now this is uh naught this is no bounce
but you got to clip it you got to clip it clean
it's a tougher shot it's a tough shot in my opinion so for me I like to open the
face a little bit okay with some doubts
that's where I go back to this grind for me because it's got some balance but I
can open that face a little bit and still play my shot see there's so many
options but it all depends on the type of shot you like to play and the
conditions you play on so if you're wondering about wedges and how to get
dialed in you've come to the right place cuz we are diving into the wedge game
