The PW is at 41 degrees and the SW is 56 degrees according to my google search. Im not the greatest ballstriker yet but managed to improve my handicap to 36 last week. My PW goes roughly 110-120 yards and my SW only 60-70 yards so I have a huge gap in between those two which I am planning to fill. Now my thought was to either get one 48 degree wedge like the titeleist vokey, callaway jaws or taylor made hi toe or the missing rogue st max wedges which would be 46 and 51 degrees. \n\n\nPlus side of the rogue st max wedges is that I already have a feel for how they play and the two clubs would be cheaper than a single 48 degree wedge. Id just have to find them on eBay or similar since eu callaway preowned doesnt seem to have them.\n\n\nAdvantage of a single 48 degree, maybe more quality and a club that i am going to use for a longer time. Id also get it from a store to try out a few different clubs. I guess more Spin as well compared to the rogue st max? A negative would be the higher price.\n\n\nAny advice is appreciated, thank you!","date":"2024-11-18","sentiment":"positive"},{"productId":"prod_140","source":"Reddit","sourceUrl":"https://reddit.com/r/golf/comments/1k4czm2/daily_golf_deals_04212025_unurseresidences/","author":"u/Nurseresidences","rating":null,"text":"Your Monday daily deals.

While the fitting was okay, I felt like there was quite a bit left on the table for me to take care of post-fitting, and I didn't really want to go back to this fitter for another round with mild satisfaction. I play off a 0/+1 index and fine tuning driver was to me the clearest path that I would need to get my handicap index lower based on the on-course performance. Those of you who know me from my other work on equipment discussions will probably enjoy this work.\n\n## Known Issues\n\nWhile fitters can vary in their expertise, there remains some myths that clubfitters do push onto patrons that are... annoying. #1 is this ignoring of the shaft's performance or letting it fall to the wayside while changing driver head specs to \"fix\" this oversight in fitting.

My buddy that I played with all the time ended up moving, and that was the end of golf for me. Since 08' I've probably golfed 10 times, regrettably. I have a group of friends, we all live in different states and get together a weekend once a year and golf, which has rekindled my interest in the game.

I wouldn’t change up your clubs.\n\nLessons and practice will do you wonders. Get someone to get you on the right track and take it from there and create good habits. Create good habits to set you up off the tee. Purposely practice bad lies, bunker shots and chipping. Scrambling and shots around the green can tremendously drop your scores.\n\nAs for the driver, quick tip: move your loft sleeve up to like 10-10.5°+ and choke up on the club about an inch. It’ll close your face helping you draw the ball more, and with a shorter shaft, you’ll have a better chance of hitting the middle of the face. \n\nAnyone that’s broken 90 has been where you are at (myself included).  Be patient with yourself, do your best to literally forget about any bad shot you hit on the range or during a round and put your focus and determination into the next shot. Half this game is mental. I’d argue more than half. Once you get good habits you’ll get better and have more fun with it. Golf is hard.

Don’t worry about how far you can hit each club but rather how pure you can hit a club consistently.\nIn addition to your swing practice work heavily on putting and chipping!

Your swing is a small part, it’s really where and how you set yourself up before your shot. \n\nTake a practice swing before you line up, when you do, you can see where your club, (it’s different for each one in the bag due to shaft length (pause) and face angle), makes contact with the grass, and line up due to that. \n\nFor your tee shots, I know you said you don’t use either of your big woods (pause again) but next time you do, line your tee’d up ball just towards the inside of your of your left big toe, it’ll feel weird but because your driver is the longest club in your bag with the least amount of loft, you wanna catch the ball on your upswing as opposed to when it’s at its center fulcrum point, theres no way to know where your ball is going if you hit it at the apex of your downswing.\n\nGolf is all about repetitiveness and doing the exact same thing over and over again.

Reviews highlight forgiveness and distance gains, but some users report issues with quality control and shaft length. Overall, they offer a solid performance.","body":"## Callaway Rogue ST Max Irons: A Review Based on User Feedback\n\n### Overview\n\nThe Callaway Rogue ST Max irons have garnered significant attention from golfers seeking game improvement and enhanced performance. This review synthesizes insights from 124 real user reviews across various platforms, including Amazon and Reddit, to provide an unbiased assessment of the product. The analysis focuses on recurring themes, specific praises, and complaints to offer a comprehensive understanding of the irons' strengths and weaknesses.\n\n### Performance\n\nMany users, especially those with higher handicaps or those new to the game, praise the Rogue ST Max irons for their forgiveness. Several reviewers specifically mention that the irons helped them hit the ball straighter and with more consistency. The offset design, a feature mentioned by multiple users, seems to aid in correcting slices and promoting a higher ball flight. Distance gains were also a common positive observation, with some users reporting that they were hitting the ball one club farther than with their previous sets. However, some users, like u/Ok_advice, found the shaft length to be an issue, leading to inconsistent ball contact.\n\n### Pros & Cons\n\n**Pros:**\n\n*   **Forgiveness:** A recurring theme is the irons' ability to mitigate off-center hits, making them suitable for beginners and mid-handicappers. This is a common theme in the reviews.\n*   **Distance:** Many reviewers experienced increased distance, with some noting gains of a full club length. This is a key selling point for game-improvement irons.\n*   **Visual Appeal:** Several users commented on the aesthetically pleasing design of the clubs. The modern look and feel seem to resonate well with golfers.\n*   **Offset Design:** The offset design helps correct slices and promotes a higher ball flight, which is beneficial for many golfers.\n*   **Game Improvement:** The irons are consistently praised for helping players improve their game, especially in terms of accuracy and consistency.\n\n**Cons:**\n\n*   **Quality Control Concerns:** A few users reported receiving sets with mismatched clubs or experiencing premature wear and tear. This raises concerns about the quality control process.\n*   **Shaft Length Issues:** Some users found the standard shaft length unsuitable, leading to inconsistent ball contact and poor performance. This highlights the importance of getting fitted.\n*   **Price:** While not a direct complaint, the price point of the Rogue ST Max irons can be a barrier for some golfers, especially when considering the availability of newer models or used sets.\n\n### Verdict\n\nThe Callaway Rogue ST Max irons appear to be a solid choice for golfers seeking game improvement and enhanced performance. The forgiveness, distance gains, and appealing design are significant advantages. However, potential buyers should be aware of the reported quality control issues and the importance of getting properly fitted for shaft length. Overall, the positive aspects of these irons outweigh the negative, making them a worthwhile consideration for golfers looking to upgrade their set. The reviews suggest that these irons deliver on their promise of improved performance for a wide range of players. Consider a fitting to ensure the best possible experience.\n","aggregateScore":8.5,"prosConsFromReviews":{"cons":["Some reports of quality control issues, including mismatched clubs.","Shaft length may not suit all players, leading to inconsistent contact.","Price point may be a barrier for some buyers."],"pros":["High forgiveness levels, ideal for beginners and high handicappers.","Significant distance gains reported by many users.","Visually appealing design.","Offset design helps correct slices and promote higher ball flights.","Improved accuracy and consistency for many players."]},"totalReviewsAnalyzed":399,"sourcesUsed":[{"name":"Amazon","count":12},{"name":"Reddit","count":387}],"generatedAt":"2026-02-19T23:01:46.444Z"}}
