What three wedges do you roll with? P, Sand, Lob, Gap? Or do you go all 4?

48* PW, 52* Gap, 56* SW. Seems to work well. Gap and Sand are not full swing clubs, PW from 30ish yards out.

Three wedges, four wedges - I've done it all since 1994. Just depends on my mood for the season.

I went with P (46,) Gap (50), Sand (54) and Lob (58). My course isn't very long so it isn't often that I have anything other than a wedge into the green so I figured it would make the game easier for me and it has.

I use all 4 of those. I've even tossed a 64° in the bag at times depending on the course.

I used to be averse to lob wedges. Recently picked up an RM4 60* that I like a lot. So currently:

46* PW, 50* (will be 51*) AW, 56* SW, 60* LW.

 

I reserve the right to break up with my LW at any time...

How about all 5!? PW (43), AW (48), 52, 56, 60. 
 

Obviously the numbers on my iron set are all “wrong.” By loft it’s closer to a traditional 4 wedge set up. When I go out with a a half set I’ll usually only take the AW and 56 or PW and 52 depending on where I’m playing.

How many clubs do you need inside 100 yds? My 100yd club =50* 

 

If I go 46-50-54-58 then I have 3...which I tried for last several years- new style

 

If I go 47-52-58 I now have 2....old school basically [Eye 2+ sw & Eye 2 sw] as I played for roughly 15 years.

47' PW is part of my 620MB set = 100-118yds

52' Gap = 30yds-100yds Vokey SM6

58' LW = 5yds - 85yds Vokey SM6

 

No purpose having more wedges.  I can handle anything inside 118yds with the above "3" three.  There may be a green condition where I use 9i, but that's it.

I'm a 4 wedge guy, my set pw and aw at 45° and 50°, then a 56° and 60°. I find I have pretty much the distances I need covered with them.

48,52,56. I also have a 60 which I only recently acquired. I was a scratch for most of my golfing life and I still consider a 60 to be a speciality club that most amateurs don't need and shouldn't even use. I've always been able to open my 56 to play a lob when needed. I only put the 60 in the bag for specific courses or conditions; maybe 10% of the time at most. After a 1 1/2 years with the lob I still am more comfortable opening the 56.
