    I have been playing my 58.12 as my general purpose wedge, using 54.14 as a specialty wedge, and using 48.06 from around 30y out to full swing.

    Since many shots could be done with either 58 or 54 I decided to switch up and make the 54 my general purpose wedge and the 58 a specialty wedge. So I use the 54 for most shots out to about 50y, and the 58 only where the 54 won't do.

    Day 1, didn't work out very well, I kept putting the ball where the 54 wouldn't work as well as the 58.

    Day 2, worked out much better, 7 of 11 up and downs, never touched the 58.

    Day 3(today), 5 of 9, missed twice using the 58(of course using the 58 meant it was a more difficult shot), and all 4 misses were actually due to poor putts(not actually poor they just needed a little more umph)

    So far this year I have (blue) 76, 75(yesterday) and (yellow) 92(esc 91), 89, and 80(today)

    I think my hcp will be going up to start the year......as usual

    Still working out good, 78 from the yellow(thats a 5.0), 5 of 8 up and down, 1 of 2 sand saves, and two &^**&%^ 3 putts.

    It was bad today, I'll use the excuse it was cold, which it was cold but I've played better in colder weather.

    Went to the blue tees because it was cold. After a few bad drives I went to 3w and discovered, I couldn't hit the 3w as far as normal, but I could hit the 3w farther than I was hitting driver right now. Hit 7 fairways 4 greens

    0 of 1 sand saves and 2 of 12 up and downs, as you might guess I wasn't happy with my wedge play today. At least my putting wasn't too bad (33), I read the greens right, I started the ball in the right direction, and I almost hit the ball hard enough.

    I'll be back out Monday, btw 85 from the blue is 12.x

    After a couple of no golf days I had a practice round yesterday, played the front tees, the only fairways I hit were using hybrid or 3w.

    up and downs were good, sand play was good, putting was good, shot 79, not bad but not real good with a rating of 67.7.

    Today was bad, went back to the middle(blue), 0 of 3 sand saves(putting was the problem for 2 of them)

    up and downs 2 of 10, 89(esc 88)

    Yesterday I had cold and breezy as an excuse(of course I've played in colder and windier), today it wasn't cold and I really had to pay attention to feel the wind............both days I played with the same guys so I can't claim anything there...............I think there was a goblin in my bag, thats it I have been hexed by a goblin.

    It was really bad today, I just had no feel for hitting any club.

    Gonna rain tomorrow, brought my bag in the house, hopefully Thursday will be better.
