Short Game leads to 80's.

I have played mostly Taylormade or Adams Irons over the years. But I generally only carried up to a SW in my bag. Mistake. By spending alot of time at the practice greens instead of the range I was able to do a lot of work on correct club and correct shot shape with the wedges. Ultimately what it has done for me is turn a bogey or double bogey start into a par or bogey by sitting my chip close enough to the hole to have an opportunity for a 1 putt or 2 at worst rather than the dreaded 3 putt. Lets be honest birdies come from a solid drive and a solid followup close enough to one putt. Short wedges like these are the rescue when you didn't get on the green with that followup shot. They are also great on par 5's when you have put it in that 20-70 yard range with your second shot. Thats when you can really attack for a birdie with the correct club rather than trying to baby a pw or sw. They are shaped toward the blade side so you need to be aggressive with these clubs to be successful. Once you trust the 60 degree to take a "Phil" swing with it you will open up your short game and start playing the "correct shot" rather than a shot you are comfortable with. Bump it, lob it, spin it, you got it with some confidence with this set. All in all it helped my game get from 90-93 to 83-88. Took about 3 trips to the range to start to trust them. Took about 5 outings on the course to try every shot. 60 degree takes the most work to trust. But is the sweetest club when you do. This is the second time I have had a set of these. I sold mine before when I tried to switch everything to taylormade r7 xds. But the wedges that you can get for them are much less bladed so I had trouble with the short shots and tended to have to much D. So I'm back with a mixed bag and I couldn't be happier.
