Afternoon all,how many wedges(not the potato ones) do you carry in your bag ? I have a Ping G25 pw and sw at the moment,thinking of getting a lob wedge any thoughts or would this be another club to carry round not being used much ?

PW and SW, dont need anything else- learn to manufacture shots, it's far more fun
There will be many a long in a minute saying you need 4 wedges and a 60* for that 'occasional' shot. Learn with what you have first, you can add later when your a wedge master

Your g25 sw is 54 degrees. Imo a 58 degree wedge is a great tool in the correct hands

Summer it's PW, GW, SW, LW.
LW gets ditched in Winter as it's a liability.
I'm a Sweeper/Slider so low bounce wedges off fairway. High bounce is for Sand and longer Rough. Better to get the best tool for the job in the first place than having to manufacture something imo! Game is hard enough to play with shots I've practiced a lot, let alone the shots I haven't practiced much - if any!

4 wedges (46*,52*,56* & 60*). Some of us get close enough to need more options than 2 clubs. My wedges are the most used irons in my bag. (and the best part of my game)

Plus 1 on this
Gives you more options for full shots from closer in
Presume your PW is about 47 so your 54 and a 58 would fit in nicely
3 wedges is enough for most people, 2 is good of you are proficient with them , 4 is down to individual choice
i have PW, 50 deg gap and 56 SW, i don't feel i need any more than that

G25 PW is 45 degrees.

In that case either a 58 or a 60, but I think a 58 is generally easier to hit
Just my opinion of course

If I count my irons sets PW I have 5 :rofl:.
Ci11 PW, 48,52,56,60.
Actually tempted to drop my old 48* in as a crap lie club .

I found the sw g25 difficult to open up due to the wide sole so didn't bother. Stuck with the callaway wedges.

Pretty much the same here. 46*PW, 50*GW & 58*SW. The 50* gets me out of most bunkers and the 58* is nice for when I'm in a deep one! but also doubles up as a LW.

I have 3 or 4 depending on your outlook...
A 45° wedge is really a 10 iron so I have 3 - 50, 54 and 58.
