i have a 56 degree from cleveland and its awesome
cleveland makes the best wedges out there and there not that expensive $100 at the most

if you can afford it get the vokey spin milled wedges…. you will not regret it

Honestly most of your scoring comes from inside 100 yds. Titleist are pretty good, but Clevelands are better. Also get to know your clubs and yardages, it is the most important thing to scoring low. I played on the mini tours for awhile, unfortunately I had an accident and am stuck in a wheel chair now. I used to carry 4-5 wedges it is important to have wedges. Don’t underestimate the short game. good luck.

Hey, if you can wait a bit, there are new rules going into effect that make current wedges illegal in tournaments (basically, they are changing the allowed size and spacing of the grooves.) So, current wedges will be going for a steal soon. So if you can wait, you may get what you want but can;t afford, for less money.

Forged wedges have a softer feel then casted ones, Vokeys are good, but they are casted.
I would recommend Mizuno MP-T series, Best wedges I’ve ever used, and Mizuno is the best in forging.
Price wise it’s cheap too. i got mine 51′ gap, 56′ sand and 60′ lob all brand new for less than $150.

I don’t see anything on here about the Taylormade TP wedges. Ya they may be aging a little now, but remember the hype when they came out? Personally, I have the 54* Black TP and a 60* CG 12. This is a better gap I think for the wedges, but that is because of my PW. It also depends on what irons you have. Since you are an 11, I would assume that you have a good but not great set. If you hit your PW a long way, then I would go with the 54* wedge, if not then the 52*. Also depends on where you play and average conditions. Do not forget about the bounce and how important it is. If you play on firm conditions, then you want a lower bounce to help pinch the ball, if you play on wetter conditions with ample bunkers, then you should look at a higher bounce. For the 54* it doesn’t really matter that much, but for the 60*, the bounce makes a HUGE difference.

For brands, you can go wrong with Titleist, Cleveland, or Taylormade. They are still the leaders in wedge technology. But since wedges are more about feel, the best thing to do is go hit some on an actual course (demo days) and then go from there because sims at Golfsmith and others dont give you enough feedback.

Stick with Forged as well.

You should choose the wedgies that feel best when up in there pretty tight!

I use both Vokey 60 and a Cleveland 60. In my personal opinion, Cleveland manufacturs better wedges.

Since you dont want to spend more, initially invest on a 60 and then you can look at a 56.

The most important thing to remember about the wedges is that you will probably, at your handicap level, need one quite a bit. It really doesn’t matter who made it, what it costs, or what it looks like, YOU must like your wedges, Keep trying as many as you can get your hands on until you find the magic wedge..

James …NCC has given you some good advice to follow here. You want to cut down on the gap between clubs so think about what conditions you’ll be playing under and choose your weapons wisely. Sounds to me like you’ve got good taste in clubs.
