Opinions on a set's wedge or keeping my current?

[MisterLem]

I've been looking to upgrade my iron set, specifically looking to grab P790s. I game a Vokey 48* bent to 47* instead of carrying a set's PW (built around the rest of my wedges 52, 56, 60; all with specific bounces since I play in the NE) since I lost my PW this past fall and ended up finding exactly what I needed for a shaft/wedge combo in a Vokey on eBay for a deal. I'm going to get fitted for my first time, and was wondering if I should consider dumping my new 47* and consider playing the P790 PW (which is I believe 45*) or stick to 5i-9i? Essentially asking if anyone else does this and if there are any pros/cons for not getting a set's PW?

I would game the p790 wedge. Better distance/forgiveness and continuity. Bend it a degree weak to 46 and other irons accordingly for gapping.

Id try out the PW from the set and see how you like it. You may like it better than your Vokey or you may not.

Just my opinion so don’t slay me for it. I had the P790’s last fall and hated the pw and gw. They performed and felt nothing like the rest of the set. Looked different than the set too. Hence the reason I sold them.

Never liked any of the set wedges. Always seemed to be either gapped too far from the PW or for some reason played weaker than a wedge of the same loft.

With my mp63 pw set is 46 and i like it then 54 to 58.50 sits spare right now and its a Great 50! So if its a great set pw try it! Ps im 105 metres on pw....

If you use your PW as a 10i, often for full shots, set wedge might work better. If you only hit partials with PW, Vokey might be better.
