It has really helped on the course when I get to the in between shots (over swing an 8 iron or hit an easy 7 iron) or get too close to the green for a full shot (e.g. 60 yards).
I started this exact process earlier this summer with my instructor. Had a playing lesson with him first for two hours where we focused a bit on course management and worked on scoring shots. Basically anything <100y in, and stuff around the greens and bunkers.

Then went back to the studio later in the week and dialed in the wedges from three "positions" 9, 10 and 11 o'clock and two grip positions on Trackman.

Picture below is the output.

Side note: hitting 120 wedges in an hour trying to keep the same speed is really, really hard.
