I tend to use a qick wrist set with the wedges and progressively delay that wrist set as the clubs (and swing get longer). In fact, I am mindfull of the wrist set in my irons but with my woods I really don't think about it, the wrist set seems to occur with the momentum of the club as it is swinging back. The fact that I take the woods to near parallel seems to promote the wrist set also.

Thanks for the feedback.

Timmy, for ME thinking of this is too much, I use the same back swing for all clubs, and when necesarry i just use different lenghts. Now if it is in the rough, or hitting a flop, then it may be a different story
