    48 degree wedge

    Who carries one? The gap between my i525 wedge 45 degree and my gap wedge 52 degrees is just too large and I think a 48 my be the trick.

    I carry four wedge's
    43 degree
    48 degree
    55 degree
    60 degree

    During my fitting we bent a 56 degree SW to 55 to fit my gaps better.

    I carry a PW, Gap, 56 & 60. Still trying to get use to them. I was old school and always just had a PW and sand wedge.

    My AP1 718's come with a 48. Then I gap with a Vokey 52 and 58. The 48 is the old pitching wedge degree.

    I think you need 2 clubs to fill the gap.

    What yardage are you trying to solve for? I used to play the i525's so sort of know your issue. Learning to play that PW from 125-90 is really cool and turns into a serious scoring weapon.
