Exactly! Short-sided... usually a 56 degree wedge. Lots of green... sometimes pitching wedge and sometimes 52 degree wedge. If in heave fluff around green, higher lofted. If pretty clear between ball and hole, pitching wedge.It depends where the flag is.
Wait until you're old, injured, and carrying hybrids down to a 6H. That 6H is wonderful for chipping when you have plenty of green!Exactly! Short-sided... usually a 56 degree wedge.

It was a joke about removing the long irons from the bag.I AM old!! Will turn 74 in November. Have had a number of broken bones over the years and one knee replaced. I carry 2 hybrids.
We have a complete mix in our group. One uses a 6-iron on all his chips. Another uses a 7-iron. One uses a chipper. Another uses his putter from anywhere 10 yards or so from the green. I don't see how any of them do as well as they do. They have confidence in what they use and that confidence makes it work for them. I don't think it has anything to do with age or physical condition. It has to do with what works for you and what, in your mind, is best for YOU.
