Should I carry a 60 degree wedge?

Absolutely! In fact, I would recommend utilizing your 60 degree in the sand even over your 54 or 56 degree sand wedge. If you have a longer bunker or sand shot, then utilizing a 50, 52, 54, or 56 is perfectly fine, but on those short, difficult sand shots, get your 60 degree wedge out and splash it out of the sand.

How do you hit a golf wedge?

Move the golf ball back in your golf stance towards your back foot. When hitting a wedge shot, golfers need to have a steeper angle down at the ball to compress the ball and utilize the loft of the club. So by playing the ball further back in the stance, you will hit the ball at a steeper angle and add more distance.
