12 days of Xmas & my request

  First, and this is serious, my thanks to all the WGT members contributing to the 12 days of Christmas project in other forum.  It is very nice and I am sure there are some very greatful recipients.

  Second.  My Xmas request is to WGT.  There are a lot of us stuck after many years on 100-80-60 yard wedge sequence.  We are not changing.  But all that WGT updates is 100-75-50.

  So, lol, I buy the 100 yd MacDaddy which really is a little better than equivalent Cleveland … stats the same but more forgiveness.  Where are the 80 and 60 yard versions?

  Tom

  PS.  After waiting this long, I want a discounted price.

  Maybe they will come out in a titleist vokey wedge line... but i would love to know where you found a 50y 64deg MD wedge because i havent found one on wgt.   

  It was suggested there are no 64deg wedges in the MD line and that is why we dont see one, but there are MD wedges under the PM grind line that phil m helped design.  Seems a shame that one of the games best wedge players doesnt have his go to wedge being highlighted on wgt for us to use and play.

  The exact reason I've not bought these, no 50/60 only a 75 and a 115.

  IMO the 115 is pointless, I have a 120 PW so why would I buy this, I've all 4 ATV's and hardly used the 115yd.

  What does this mean? How do they update clubs? 

  FWIW, I'm not stuck at 60-80-100, I'm there by choice and the clubs don't change.

  The 115 is better than any PW, and it could be useful in certain circumstances.  CTTH's, and tourney's where you're not hitting from the black tees.  i.e you hit a lot of wedges in.  Or...you're just able to use all its range of shots within its distance well.

  One might ask ujjbnjk why he carries that 52. :)  He probably finds it useful I'd gather.

  I have a bag equipped with 4 ATV wedges, 3 wood and another with the 4 wedges and a hybrid, but rarely if seldom used.

  Not the high end Vapors, now Callaways. The set wedge is another CG in disguise.  ;-)

  I don't know there Jim.  Hit flat the 52 stops dead just like the 56 no?... don't think any PW does that.

  I thought all the cool kids used it :) lol. Best club by far in my bag takes one of the worst club out of play PW...only 3 wood is worse then PW. I would not trade the 115 club for the 100 wedge if you so offer me 100.000 credits to do it... Thats how much I like it :)

  Interesting!  Thanks for the info.

  Curious, how far does the 52 punch?
