  Hello, I am currently only using two wedges.  I have the level 14+ Taylormade 65yd wedge, and the level 27+ Cleveland 90yd one.  I was wondering what distances you guys leave inbetween your wedges, because I am looking to get a third one.

  The 50-77-98 works well. Or replace the 98 with the 105 if you have irons that have a 125 wedge.

  I'm assuming you've mastered the wedge punch shot. If so, I normally leave a gap of 10 yards between distances including punches. Go with what Piz says.

  I have 110, 90 & 50, if I punch the 90 it goes 74, this can get a bit tricky though if you have 60 or so left to the pin.

  I used to have 110, punch goes 91, 77, punch goes 63 and the 50. I liked this and it pretty much covered all the distances under 110. The only reason I changed from 77 to 90 is cause of the higher spin with the 90 wedge. Hope this made sense. :-)

  Thanks for the replies, I went with the 77yd taylormade since that distance use to kill me.
