Today from the Forums: “What does everyone use for their 100-110 yard shot?”

Today from the Forums we take a look at a discussion regarding shots from the 100-110 yard range. Forum member, TechBroker, is having an issue with the yardage, saying:

“Usually my 54 is my 100-110 shot, but recently I haven’t been getting that distance out of the club. Been working with laying off my PW but honestly when I do that it usually still goes 120, and I’m missing my marks.”

TechBroker has reached out to fellow members for advice and WRXers have been going in-depth on the topic, explaining what works best for them.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

1putTUT: “My LW (58°) tops out at 100, so 105-115 is a SW (54°). 120 is tough because that’s a lot to take off my GW and a pretty big SW. I’ll pick one or the other depending on which yardage miss (long or short) works best for the pin location.”
aenemated: “Usually just knock down my 52° wedge. Depends on the shot though – might be a full 56° depending on what I need to do or how my lie is.”
IamMarkMac: “I was hitting a full 50 or 54 wedge for 90-110. For the last four months though, for a basic 90-110 shot, I’ve found more success lobbing PW shots at the flag, trusting my feel to hunt a pin down versus yardages per wedge. Honestly, I don’t think I’m more successful with this method than using the 50-54, but I prefer the challenge and feel+flight of my half-PW versus the full wedges. My scores aren’t any worse, so I’m sticking with it. Anyway, once upon a time, I used a PW for everything inside of 125, so I should be fine.”
gwelfgulfer: “Depends on what bag and set up I have that day. Would be either a choke down 54* or a choke down 3/4 52*. Don’t normally like hitting fuller 58* shots vs flighting one in depending on wind and pin.”
rkillian: “My 54 wedge on a full shot is 110 when everything comes together. Taking some off my GW can do it, but I’m not as comfortable with that shot. I try and stick to full or half shots with my wedges as I can repertoire them pretty consistently. Distances for full/half respectively are roughly: 50* GW – 125/80, 54* SW – 110/65, 58* LW – 95/45”
rxk9fan: “I have been struggling with that distance as of late with temperatures in the upper 40’s. Normally, 50 degree is my standard 100 yards if I don’t get too steep. 46 degrees is my 115 in a standard CB or blade. 105 to 110 has been killing me. Ready for some warmer temps and see if my distances normalize along with some touch with 3/4 wedges to max and slightly closed wedges if I need a little extra. FWIW: 61 years old and Driver SS 99 and change.”

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.

In our forums, one user has offered up a prompt for the true sickos, inviting fellow forum members to share every set of irons they’ve ever owned. As to be expected, this is a lengthy forum topic.

@Lamosteve began:

Can you name every set of irons you’ve owned? Here’s mine

Spalding Dots
Spalding Eclipse
Ram Lazer FX
Lynx Parallax
Mizuno EZ Comp
Ben Hogans
Cleveland CG Red
Taylor Made R9s
PING i20
PING iE1
Taylor Made M6

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own collections. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

macedan: “Started with a hand-me-down Golden Bear set from my brother when I was in high school, never really played more than once a year or got into the game until about summer of 2017. First purchased a set of Cleveland CG4’s (I actually really miss this set sometimes, soft & not terribly large for a GI iron), moved into Nike Vapor Fly’s by the end of the year. Those lasted until spring of 18 when I decided I wanted new, so I traded them in for TM Rbladez. Honestly, although I liked the Rbladez, poor decision on my part, I think this was really about the only time so far that after a week or two I was kicking myself for not staying with what I had. Rbladez stayed with me until late last summer when I switched to P790’s and (knock on wood) I am hoping this will be my longest lasting set.”
JimmyC59: “MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Triple Crown. Palmer The Standard. Still play these.”
jgrzask: “Tommy Armour 845u
