I wondered about the wedge aspect and the top of the bag as well. Do you play your wedges and top of the bag closer to the OLs, or do you leave them standard lengths? I, like you, have developed a decent wedge game and not sure how using a OL would affect that. I was more thinking that the irons would be OLs and maybe adjusting my hybrids and driver to about only an inch difference and possibly wedges at one inch as well. Don't know yet, just speculating ideas.
I'm Playing Traditional length Dr, 3w, 3H, 50*, 56*, and 60*. So the OL is just 4i-PW. I didn't do anything on either end to "make it closer to OL". I love the current bag and there is only 1 gap I have problems with. My PW is 136yd and my 50* is like 118yds. So If I get a 125yd shot i'm in a grey spot I don't love. I don't do well taking much off the PW, and I have a partial pitch I can do with the 8i but its not the greatest if a forced carry is in play.
I think I'm going to re-gap my wedges this Fall. I'm playin with the idea of doing a 50* (+1/2" or 3/4"), 54* (traditional), 60* (traditional). I'm speculating that may help out my 125 yd gap a bit but soft stepping from OL to VL. The other option is to utilize the OL GW but I love the feel and performance of the MIM wedges.
