    Which specific shafts was he using in his wedges, especially the 55 degree? I assume the gap wedge matched his iron set, but did he use heavier weight shaft in the 55? Curious about your opinion of zz115 shaft (111g) versus Dynamic Gold s200 (124g) for 55 degree s159?

    What i dont understand is why use lets say a PW then lean the shaft forward whis takes loft off. Why not just use a 9 or 8 using your normal set up. Wouldnt that be a lot simpler for an average golfer
