How far do you hit your PW?

I hit mine about 100-120 yards

Just wondering to see were I stand

My Callaway X18 PW is only something like 48 degrees, so I can move it a pretty good distance for an old guy... about 120 if I nuke it, more like 105 hit smoothly and with control. I can blade it about 240...

Same for me... I can probably hit it 120 with a perfect swing... usually more like 110-115 though.

If I used a 3'o clock swing, I could hit it around 115 to 120yards.
But with a 11ó clock swing approach with a follow through, I can hit it around 150yards ( no bounce ).

I think my TM r7 XD works better PING G5 iron

On a full shot, I can hit my 47* PW about 150-155 yards. I typically aim for 100-130 yards with it. Thats usually enough to get to the green.

I'm right about in that range as well. Overall, on the longer end of that range. The loft of my PW is 45°.

I've been improving my swing and my distances have been erratic as I make changes and get them in sync. Lately on the range it has been 120 to 130.... drives me nuts - just can't depend on the yardage!

48 degree, about 110-115 on average, though haven't been using it as much since I got the gap wedge 52 degrees, I get more consistent loft with it.

I had a terrible day on the course yesterday... just no swing at all, so I tried some things I probably wouldn't do otherwise and one of them worked.

I had a stiff wind at my back and hit a 150 yard pitching wedge. I think I hit it harder than my driver and it was so high it almost hit an airplane... ... but it got to the front of the green.

Today, in honor of my longest ever PW, I'm wearing a red shirt and black pants because it's Sunday...
