    Or blaming their bad shots on VEM.

     

    I blame about 10% of my bad shots on VEM, and that seems about right... maybe I should blame them on the NV like everyone else.

    I have a Cleveland 64° wedge I have used for several years. Good club, good consistent results except for the past few weeks. It has “gained” distance, but is unpredictable. Shots are off by 2 - 3 yds. 50 yds used to be 90%; now some days it’s 87 - 88% for 50 yds. Maximum distance with full topspin was always 63 yds. Now it”s 65/66 yds. All full shots are affected, but not every time. Punch shots and flops are still consistent. Then some days, full shot distances are as originally mapped.

    This is exactly what I am seeing. My wedges are all mapped with my normal cally 33 ball. Same clubs, same balls, and the results are exactly as described above. Also noticing that out of the 2nd cut of rough, the ball goes further than a normal shot at same % of hit. Spin is also hit and miss on shots, from the fairway my spin has always taken, now sometimes it just acts like no spin at all. I use the higher level vokeys btw..

      Does anyone actually use a 52* wedge ? It is so close to a 9 iron I wouldn't ever equip it .

     

    It would be a good club to have if you could replace your PW with it, but since we can't do that, it seems like a useless club, just like the hybrids.

    Yes, I use a Callaway 52° wedge for "irons only" tournaments.  It's not close to a 9 iron at all.  It is (and plays like) a gap wedge between your PW and your 56° wedge.
