  pitch: 22 yards

  flop: 26 yards

  I never pitch or flop with this club but the punch shot is 83 yards ... I'll go start a practice round and look at those numbers and report right back ...

  ok ... back ... the numbers for the 100 yard wedge are ...

  chip: 16 yards

  pitch: 33 yards

  flop:38 yards

  punch: 83 yards

  chip: 6 yards

  pitch: 14 yards

  flop: 16 yards

  For 745 credits , you can get 3 Ping wedges , and the same results .L60+54w-105 yrds , L41+56w-90 yrds , L42+60w-75 yrds.  I back up my Rll irons with this 3 wedge set up , and it works for me .With the Ping wedges , you get good control with just the right amount of spin . Food for thought .

  The high level ATV's are great clubs. I consider the 50 yard club as the best one in my bag. They don't spin as much as the Clevelands but they are a lot easier to use.

  Yep. I too found the ATVs are more playable than the Cleveland wedges.

  I had both brands and sold the Cleveland wedges back to the pro shop.

  As far as Ping clubs, I have never liked their clubs - for real or virtual.

  I played Hogan clubs until the company was sold to Cosmo World in '88. At that point I tried all the brands and settled on TaylorMade.

  Thought I'd share this with you all, 1st shot with the 75 yard atv.

  Eagle Teaser.

  Been around long enough to know that this is wgt's way of saying buy all 3.  :))

  Very nice shot. I use the Cleveland wedges but each to their own. Your average is far better than mine so you know what you are doing.

  I've never changed my wedges so I suppose I just got use to them. If it isn't broke don't fix it. I think Cleveland versus ATV wedges will always be a discussion point. All players have their preferences. I don't think one club is necessarily better than another. If it works for you then stick with it.

  I agree, I had the old Taylor Made Z, then the Clevelands and now the high level ATV wedges and liked them all.  The old 64° Taylor Made was probably the best bargain ever sold in the pro shop, a wonderfully versatile club for 250 credits.

  I changed more because the more expensive ones were there than being unhappy with what I had.  Thankfully each upgrade has proven worth it, maybe only just though.

  I have to say I find the ATV wedges more controllable than the Clevelands, with a touch of b/s they'll check nicely without worrying about them spinning back off the green.

  I simply cannot ding my Z's at all anymore,  the 3.5 feel Nikes does nothing to slow or smooth the meter.  The old 64 was the best club ever sold in the pro shop, hate to give it up.

  The time has come it seems.

  Thanks gents and Court, appreciate the feedback.
