How far do you hit your sand wedge?

I have that shot, one time when I was a young teen playing a hole at Parkview.
Buddy decides he needs to tend the stick for my bunker shot, I asked him to move and he said don't worry about it.
Well I bladed it and it whistled between his ear and the flagstick, hitting towards a small cliff it sailed pretty far.WITB

typically, 90-95
a good skull... 160
and because my results have been similar to the illustration shown in veryolds post... I now use my 60 PM wedge out of greenside bunkers. Thing is like cheating.Driver - Taylormade SIM MAX 9.0 Diamana S

I usually hit my SW roughly 115-120.
I was out at Glendale with an old friend, and on the 3rd hole I was trying to leave a shot at the front but absolutely crushed my SW over 150. It didn't feel bladed I must have really hooded it.
For the rest of the day my friend would call out - hit that monster SW, you're at the white stake. A solid mix of embarrassment and amusement.Still getting the hang of this game!

Wow and I hit mine about half that. Something wrong with my sw swing for sure. So much so I try not to hit it.
I stopped playing for a few years and when I returned to 5-10 rounds a year I had gained 25 yards on all my irons. I routinely hit my 9 iron 150 now.
Same irons, same idiot swinging. Just more distance. Weird for sure.

Fortunately there are no rules limiting the number of golf balls you can carry during a match!
