What would be the reason for not talking full swings with some of your wedges?

it is the yardage I am worried about, not the amount of degrees of loft...
As some have pointed out, figure out how far your PW goes and work from there... And how many more clubs do you have room for? 2? 3? 4?
I do find it amazing how people on here say they hit such and such wedge 126 yards or 132 yards etc etc... C'mon folks, be realistic... Have you really spend a lot of time measuring your wedges to realize that 126 is the exact PW distance?
I am a 3 handicap who plays 10-15 times a year right now. My 45* PW is 125-130 yards, my 48* wedge is 110-115 yards, my 54* wedge is 95-100 yards and my 60* wedge is 80-85 yards... I only have 3* of difference from my PW to my next wedge, but I am going from a Z545 to a Rotex 2.0 Blade wedge so it is the yardage I am worried about, not the amount of degrees of loft...
Much easier to keep them lower and a little less spin. Plus there is rarely a reason to hit a PW 140-150+What would be the reason for not talking full swings with some of your wedges?

This is what game golf is useful for, they give you a typical number which is basically an average minus the outliers. Once I have 50 shots with a club I am good to use the exact game golf number. Any less and I don't think it is enough to make up for the fact you might not be trying to hit it as far on certain shots.As some have pointed out, figure out how far your PW goes and work from there...

The best way would to be jump on an accurate outdoor launch monitor if you have access to one for a few hours.
