How Close Should You ACTUALLY Hit Your Wedges?

Not only is this something I am always asked about, it's something I always get push back on. How close are amateurs actually hitting their wedge shots?

The 5 tables below provide the details across handicap skill levels. Each table shows average and median proximity to the hole from various yardage ranges (50-129 yards), along with the percentage of shots that finish within specific distances (5ft to 50ft).

These are ONLY shots from the fairway.

My Thoughts

As you can see, amateurs are not hitting every wedge shot inside 10 feet. Shoot, from 100 yards scratch players are hitting less than half inside 20 feet!

Should you be trying to hit every wedge shot exactly to your target? Yes. Absolutely yes.

Should you get upset when that doesn’t happen every time? No. Not at all!

Manage your expectations!
