A 60* has it's uses but it's fairly limited. I would try to get more comfortable with the 8, 9, PW and 56 around the greens and then go from there. With those clubs you will me able to play 95% of the shots you need around the green. A 60* is usually a risky shot and only really needed to get to tucked pins or when you have very little green to work with.

I wouldn't recommend a 60° as a way to improve your short game. That is a good way to make things harder on yourself. The 60 is a tough club to be good with. My advice would be to get a 50° GW and learn how to hit a bunch of shots with it. Depeding on the lie, that is my go to club for everything within 100 yards. I can get the ball to check with it just fine.

I'm glad to see that your second round went so much better. I agree with the sentiment of NOT get a 60 yet. I have one that I'm probably going to take out of the bag. I've had several over the years and I'm just too inconsistent with it. I think an amateur is better served with a bump and run than a flop shot or high lofted shot trying to stick the pin.

Also, I've found that when I put pressure on myself to perform well, I almost always stink it up. When I go out for a "I don't care" round, I almost always play very well. Keep working the short game.
