When watching TV the advert for the Pro V1and Pro V1x came on with all the pros discussing the different kind of shots that you can play and how the Pro Vs can help you blah blah.
But it got me to thinking about my favourite shot and I personally, like a pitching wedge that is mid height that stops quickly, any of you guys got a favourite shot
 
The one that goes where it's supposed to!

Mine is the smooth 8/9 iron, pitch and stop next to the flag.
Managed one yesterday....
 
My favourite useful shot- and i do use it practically every round at some point, is the 3/4 running driver.

Basically, off the tee, ball in the middle if the stance, open up the body and a nice smooth 3/4 swing with a curtailed follow through for a lovely low controlled fade. It's a great shot to learn and is brilliant for windy drives.
It's also a good one for when the nerves are going as it's predictable. You're only losing 10-15 yards
 
Half swing 9 iron from 50-60 yards out. Isn't that right Bob? ;)

Mine is a 3/4 nine from 100 yds, spot on. 3/4 wedge 80 yds and 3/4 sand wedge 50.

fill in the gaps with a bit of feel ;)

my playing partners' running in shots from 50 yds were found out Yesterday as the recent rain had caused softer ground and longer grass so had confused their distances after the weeks of dry spell.... My wedges still went the same distance ;)
