Good afternoon, I have recently been doing some gap work on my bag to get my carry distances sorted out and I have noticed that the bottom of my bag has a lot of gaps in distances

PW 44 deg - 124yds
SW 54 deg - 97yds
LW 60 deg - 70 yds

I had this prob as my pitching wedge was 44*
I have gone with a 48* gap wedge that matches my irons.
52* 10 bounce
56* 13 bounce sand wedge.
60* 8 bounce.

I swop 60 for a 4 iron iron depending on conditions.

you need a 48/50 that goes 110yds as that gap is to big imo.

Simple add in a 50 for the correct gap or maybe a 52 for around the green.

Take out the 54 and the 60 and replace with a 50 and 56.

Take out the 54 and the 60 and replace with a 50 and 56.

Good advice. My PW is 46 degrees so went 52 and 58 to keep the gap the same. The other thing of course is then to learn how to hit different shots with them

I would add a 49 or 50 degree wedge to fill the gap.

I have the following:

45 135 yards
49 120 yards
54 100 yards
60 80 yards

Generally I use them all on the courses I play regularly as I have a few shots of around 120 yards into greens, but If I was going to play a longer course or links course I normally take out the 49 and replace with a 3 iron.

If people almost always play the same course then having 14 clubs is fine, but if you other different types/length of courses, then having 15 or 16 clubs you can rotate is important I think.
