What do you have to do to hit your Pitching wedge 160 yards?

[jenhaoyen]

my furthest was probably 135to 140.....


There is an old guy around 50 years old (who hits ball at my driving range) that hits pitching wedge 150 yards. It doesn't even seem like he's trying.

My bet is he's turning that wedge into an 8 iron with shaft lean.

Real easy add 1 inch to shaft and make the loft about 2 degrees stronger, done.

An older man told me this after he beat me by 2 strokes, "Buddy u hit the ball real far, but its not about how far its about how many"!

These older dudes that plays at my courses actually shoots par alot.

All they do is, 3 wood, 7 iron, putter.

Don't really need anything else.

They are super good at putting too.

hit it twice.

get a burner 2.0 set.

wait for a 25mph tailwind.

swing it 85 mph.

hit it thin.

Some things in there that you could use for a pitching wedge that would help hit it farther.

 

[footwedge]

Take your 8 iron cover the 8 and put a PW on top of it.

Are the burner 2.0 a long hitting iron?

You need to keep up with the older dudes also?

Old age and treachery beating youth and skill takes on a whole new meaning in golf it seems.

Didn't you see the comercial?

i never understood what a sweeping release is

 

[jenhaoyen]

oh ic. but don't really understand the mechanics behind it.

 

[dschultz6072]

None of this playing with your release stuff will work. You just need to hit it harder.

I guess I got my swagger back.

 

[ej20]

oh ic. but don't really understand the mechanics behind it.

Here's an idea to get one back on them mature dudes.Tell them about TGM,accumulators and sweep and snap and random releases and I guarantee they will lose 30 yards on their PW's.

 

[Olof Karlson]

Well, just bomb the shit out of it.

A 150 PW is not that useful though, I have more control when I hit it about as far as the OP.
