Pitching wedges historically had lofts of around 52 degrees. Their shifting to stronger lofts is what led to creation of the gap wedge, which was literally created to fill the gap between evolving pitching wedges and sand wedges.
Thank you for featuring Proopsy in one of your videos. I took your advice and contacted him for modular homes, and the house have been incredible. Paid slightly less than $29k, and now I’ve paid off my $129k 15 year loan in 8 months. Now totally debt free because I rent it out on Airbnb. Love having no debt for the last 5 months. Thank you Proopsy!
48° pw, 54°sw & 60°Lw is my preferred set up. I prefer traditional lofts because I’ve been playing them for over 30 years but a lot of new/game improvement irons have jacked up lofts though so another wedge is often necessary. The PW will be like a 9i at 44°, shit Bryson PW is the same loft as Tigers 8i (40°) & it has a 7i length shaft in it. 60° is my usual go to, can flight low spinners, medium hight chips/pitches, cut the legs out & make is stop like a butterfly with a sore knee or send it to the moon, any shot really.
With President Trump serving as the 47th president of the United States, there’s significant potential for a major market rally, presenting great opportunities for wealth creation. By investing in Proopsy modular homes instead of keeping your money in banks, you can capitalize on this surge and build considerable wealth. Just by renting them out every month, you can earn up to 100k low-key.
just played in a HS team golf match, and a guy on another team pulled out his 78 degree. i lost it, that was the funniest thing watching him hit that thing.😂
That’s all you really need. The rest should be facilitating the feel in the hands. If you’re eye hand coordinated enough, a 56 degree is all you really need.
Well it depends how far back you go in history Whippersnapper. The PING EYE2 had 50° PW and 57/12° SW. The PING EYE2 was also the first set which came with a 61° LW. Due to the way PING milled the grooves after casting to take off the too-sharp edges the USGA and PGA banned them PING sued and won getting cash and a lifetime exemption for PING EYE2 from any future rule change which in 2011 had Pros like Mickelson and Harrington putting PING LW back in their bags.
I know this because I started playing back in 1983 with a set of Browning Premiere blades with 50° PW and 56° SW, 9i-3i, 5W, 3W, 1W which was the pretty standard set-up then.
The first hybrid design was marketed in 1999 by Taylormade as “Rescue” club because most recreational players couldn’t hit a long iron out the rough and they soon started replacing the 3i and 4i then the 5i in some sets. The 5W got pulled from the bag and got replaced with a 60° LW. Dave Peltz popularized the four wedge system by tracking PGA stats and realizing pros where most consistent in their short games if using full swing vs. partial that’s how the 52-53° “Gap” wedge got its name filling the yardage gap between full swing 50° PW and 56° SW with 60° LW being the fourth.
I got a set of PING EYE2 3i – 9i, PW, SW, LW around 2013 for $60 at a thrift store and there was par 3 that fell between my full PW and full SW to I bought a second 50° PW, took them to a shop and had them adjusted to PW = 50°, PW2 (Gap) = 53°, SW = 56°, LW=60°
The early 2000s saw surge of interest in golf thanks to Tiger and loft inflation. That’s when club makers changed the numbers on the club by one. 46-47° which had since the 1930s been the norm for a 9-iron now became the “NEW 10% LONGER PITCHING WEDGE. The reason some PWs can now be hit 160yards is that because their loft inflation and leaning the shaft forward to dynamically de-loft the face the angle at impact is around that of a 1980s 6 iron.😮
Really enjoyed that. Every single shot you take I always feel so confident that it’s gonna be perfect, you’re that good. Wish my game was half as accurate as yours 😃
I reached $90k today from renting and reselling modular homes from Proopsy. Thank you for all the knowledge and insights you’ve shared with me over the past few months. I began this journey in November 2024. Financial education is essential for over 70% of the population, as only a few are truly literate in this area.

My 58° mack daddy is by far the most used club in my bag, impeccable short game out of that thing
I have a 72 degree and it’s beautiful
My pitching wedge is ? My approach wedge is 46. My sand wedge is 60. Explain that experts

Gold life bringing the video to a close got me 😂
A chipper is common. Is that a wedge?
If my hole is withing 130 yards from the pin I always use a sand wedge off the tee.
I use p, 52, 60 and 64
Got nothing on my 72°
What about the sexiest wedge in golf: 69⁰?

58 degree is a lob wedge not a sand wedge
80 degrees. Kind of useless.
48° pw, 54°sw & 60°Lw is my preferred set up.

Forgot the Foot Wedge.

Using big ange in the last video of a shit shot 😂 big up the golf life
just played in a HS team golf match, and a guy on another team pulled out his 78 degree. i lost it, that was the funniest thing watching him hit that thing.😂
Only 4?! Texas, approach, hand, and foot are other types of wedges buddy
My pitch is 41. Ping 430
I think you mean "Attack wedge" 🫡
PW GW52 and SW56
That’s all you really need. The rest should be facilitating the feel in the hands. If you’re eye hand coordinated enough, a 56 degree is all you really need.
My Lob is a 58. 😮
I recently completed a set by buying the D Wedge. It’s just want Cleveland called the Gap Wedge. I think it stands for Dual
Clubs in the 70s have vastly different lofts than today. A 3 iron then is a 5 iron today.
Why is this video needed? At all….
My pw is 40

Ange catching strays
I have that 80* thst they showed at the end of the video, obviously i dont use it.
My friend has a 69° wedge
80° Wedges are for the bounce to the face yourselves😂
56 degree is the most versatile club in my bag. It’s a great feel club and it’s just so workable. I use it for most shot within 125 yards
How many degrees is the Lofted wedge that use in the first video of lofted wedge performance
4 types of wedges… Cleveland RTX 6, Cleveland CBX2, Cleveland Smart sole, and Cleveland any other model. Yup… 4 wedges
Approach wedge
Yes, I do, but I’m not sure the producers of this video really do
i have a 43,48, and 56 degree do i need any others?
And I play 5 of them😂
Lob wedges start at 58 degree
How about that Texas wedge
I would say a 58 should be considered a lob not a sw
Bc I have high ball.speed so my irons are juiced
Really enjoyed that. Every single shot you take I always feel so confident that it’s gonna be perfect, you’re that good. Wish my game was half as accurate as yours 😃
43 pw
48 approach
52 lob
56 sand
60 parachute for emergencies
Never heard of attack wedge??
I have a U wedge (Utility)
