The reason people suggest that there is less margin for error with the lob wedge is because we're talking about players who CAN'T make consistent and solid contact.

I realize this and that's why I wanted to know quids' handicap and why I said if one can make consistent contact to go with higher lofted shots around the greens.

I dont know what my handicap is, its up there though. I can make consistent contact w/ my irons, in fact Im pretty damn good with them. I find the pitching wedge much more controllable though, well maybe not controlable, but its a lot less work to get the ball to the hole



edit: what I will probably end up doing, is adjusting between my lob and my pitching wedge based on the angle of where Im comming in at the pin. IE, if the pin is right at the front of the green, and Im coming straight at it, Im probabyl going to use my lob wedge so I can kill the ball when it lands, and I wont have to wrry about it rolling all the way across the green, if the pin is towards the back, then Ill use the PW, so I can "putt" it to the hole. Does this sound ok?

Yes, this sounds perfect.
