    Love love Thursday podcast title 😂( fix your leaks ) I don’t know if that means get a plumber or some incontinence pants 👍🏻

  2. Solomon Li says:

    Another great video Mark! Really enjoying this series.

  3. Show us how to hit a “chippy” iron shot. I’ve heard several players refer to it. Show us how it’s done.

  4. The pitching wedges from my now "old" sets had lofts of 49°, 48 at the least, even still I considered them #10 irons really. Never liked the 60° flub wedges, fun yes but it takes a lot of practice, or they can add strokes in a hurry, lol, I know this from experience.

  5. Lake Dog says:

    When you putt like me …you have to go at every pin no matter what. Missing the green is no worse than a three putt from 25 ft . Yes , I suck that bad at putting. It keeps me from being a single digit handicap and has me on the verge of giving up the sport.

  6. Mitch1977 says:

    I play a 43,50,56 in the wedge set up. I see many players who have 4 & 5 wedges who don’t need more than 2! In my opinion you’re better off learning how to hit different shots & trajectories with your P,G,S weapons as well as like you demonstrated with the 9 iron. Try it out, it works!

  7. vegasgolf25 says:

    Very good advice here.

  8. This recent thing of adding you're welcome to the end of your tips is awful, makes you come across as a dick. please stop it, sounds like you think we're not worthy

  9. Hold up, did I hear Arcoss data?

  10. Great video and wedge tips Mark. Short game is such a critical part of the game that can help drop shots. Including putting up to 60% of all amateur shots are less than 100 yards.

  11. MrDaglish77 says:

    Very good, Mark. Really helpful.

  12. Evan Bungum says:

    Love seeing the guitars Mark!! What do you like to play?!

  13. Dmkfactor says:

    What a great series, thank you from a guy who’s struggling to break into the 70s consistently!

  14. Ian Marshall says:

    Before the lob, gap, 54, 56, 58, 60 degree wedges existed we had a Pitching wedge and a sand wedge. The sand wedge was used out of bunkers and, rarely, deep rough. The PW was used from every shot, needed for elevation. Either we opened, closed the face. Went up or down the grip/handle. We lowered the handle, raised the handle. Played the ball off the sweet spot, or the toe. It's no wonder golf has slowed down, a golfer needs to consult an app, just to play a shot, that we played by eye!

  15. D Murfet says:

    Interesting way you are presenting – most of this has nothing to do with actually hitting the shot, mostly about what club you pull and where you aim – its shot gained, but against your peer group, not a field of tour pros – like it Mark 😉

  16. Chris says:

    25ft and 2 putt does me just fine. Chasin them flags is more hassle than it’s worth 😂

  17. Working back from the green is the most helpful thing I have learned, setting up in a good spot, avoiding trouble, playing to your strengths. I don't hit greens in regulation very often… but having an easy chip so I can be within 10 feet is the best I can do right now and give myself a chance at par. When my 100 yards in shots get more accurate, I know ill see some scores dropping.

  18. Guy Hall says:

    Dang, you’re right on.

    As usual I learned something, like every time I watch you

    ✌️ out

  19. Jeremy Hall says:

    Parts of my game rated by handicap, and I'm a 20 handicap who regularly shoots mid-90s, have only broke 90 twice ever … 88 and 89 haha
    Driving : 10 hdcp
    Irons : 15 hdcp
    Pitching : 25 hdcp
    Chipping : 25 hdcp
    Putting : 10 hdcp

    Essentially 150 and in destroys my game … regularly landing short of the green which then puts me into a spot where I struggle more than if I were on the green … yeah … wedges matter …

  20. like the "variations". another way to force it is to take only 6 or so clubs for a round. Forces you to be creative and fun.

  21. The problem with wedge fitting is that it so hard to find in most areas. You might find a fitter that understands it, but they likely do not have all the lofts, grinds and shafts, not even for one brand alone.

  22. ScottF says:

    great series Mark – very useful stuff. Thanks you from a perennial 10 handicapper

  23. YouTube creators are really attacking ‘they’ these days. I would like to extend an olive branch to ‘they’ because ‘they’ did in fact tell me all about full wedges. ‘They’ have, generally speaking, been exceptionally informative about all things golf and I have improved significantly….thanks ‘they’

  24. MadPulls says:

    Thank u for all the content mark!

  25. Gain Bear says:

    I will never buy another “blade wedge” stronger than 56*.

    The Cleveland CBX is tremendous.

  26. Simmo-expat says:

    Not hitting massive drives limits my need to carry more than P, LW and SW. Your shots are also driven by the course your playing. Recently played a Robert Trent Jones course in Alabama with elevated greens which took bump and run out of the equation. Your instruction on course is helping me play better, so one of us maybe both is doing something right. 👍🤝

  27. picking targets to avoid trouble, even with a wedge in hand, is such an immense breakthrough when one starts doing it. It is fascinating to see the stats for the "can't break 80" vs "do break 80" sets of players. I'm much closer to the "do break 80" (and I break 80 about 20% of the time) but on the worse side of it, and I can see how my stats fit right in that gap. The targeting has pretty much got me to the 5 handicap or better level with wedges though and it might be a major factor in the 70s rounds I do shoot.

  28. FordF says:

    Very useful thanks. Tend to get too focussed on going for the pin as opposed to looking at the shot more holistically. Also good to know that I’m not alone in occasionally missing a green with a wedge in hand. (Sometimes it can make me feel a bit silly when in reality, and at my level, it apparently not that uncommon!)

  29. Golf says:

    I like spicy wedges like the ones from McCain
