All.
Been working on the swing a lot lately. Saw on video my right hand had gotten way too weak and my setup/posture was poor causing me to hit big pushes right, and flip the hands at the bottom.

I have since got my grip straight and have got my posture and setup better. I am also trying to get the pivot working and not flip. My shots are now more straight to hooking.

My dilemna is that for the life of me, I can hit a full shot with the 56' or 60'.
I take what I think is the same swing, same grip , same setup and 80% of the time it's thinned, off the hosel shanked, head high. It feels real clicky on impact and actually buzzes the hands. I hit my PW fine, but I would like to be able to hit nice full high SW's and LW's just llike the rest of the irons. It has actually gotten into my head now, where when faced with 100yds and in I am so afraid to pull out the SW or LW , I have to hit a knockdown running PW or 9 iron.

Any help would be appreciated,,as one would think the shorter the club the easier to hit,,but in my case that does not seem right.
If there's anything else I need to add please let me know.

thanks
Joe

so I shouldn't try to hit my 56' with the samwe swing as say my 8 iron. I can seem to trap it,,take a divot, pinch the ball etc...with the 56' or 60',,

thanks

i get divots with PW,,,but sw and lw,,I feel I am scooping it when I don't hosel it. It goes really high like I lifted it up in the air. And these would be the two clubs I want to hit "down" on the most. Each time I try that,,thinned , hosel rockets. I'm like a frightened child from 60-100yds. Bomb it down the fairway , inside 100yds,,then wide up in the woods after the next shot!

...are your wedges the same make/model as the rest of your set?...if not, maybe you need to have a different set up to allow you to get the clubhead on the ball correctly with these clubs?

...the clubs differ (length, lie angle, offset?) and tinker with your setup to get better impact results...
