What do you guys think, are some golfers hung up on the wedge viewing it as some sort of magic stick?
Reason I ask is that the group I was playing behind on saturday had a guy who was using a wedge for every single shot around the green whether it be 40ft or 8ft. He was duffing so many shots and ending up a country mile away from the hole.
In the same situation I generally use a 5-iron for the delicate stuff in the fringe/semi rough stuff and find that accuracy is good.
I see it more and more where people just reach for the wedges without much thought.
