 Wedges are the most used golf clubs in the bag and as everyone knows it’s your short game that you need to be good at if you want to improve your scores. You will need to rely on your wedges to get you out of trouble from many different lies off the turf and in the sand and get you as close to the flag as possible. Wedges feature the shortest shafts and highest lofts of any golf clubs. In fact, wedges are often identified by their loft rather than their name but they fall into the categories of pitching wedge, gap wedge, sand wedge and lob wedge.
With pitching wedges typically lofted from 45 to 48 degrees, the gap wedge is so-called because it closes the "gap" in loft between the pitching wedge and sand wedge (ie; generally lofted 50-54 degrees). The sand wedge is mainly designed to help get your ball out of a bunker and has loft around 56 degrees. And as its name suggests, a lob wedge allows you to "lob" the ball high into the air, so it will drop steeply down onto the green, with little or no roll and has a loft of 60 degrees.
Clubheads are often made of softer materials, such as copper or beryllium alloy, to increase feel and touch around the green. Some are intended to rust over time, giving a unique appearance.
Some golfers carry as many as four wedges, for every conceivable situation around the green. If you're just carrying the old reliable pitching wedge that came with your standard set, you're missing out on some simple ways to help lower your scores.
Choosing the correct wedge with the right loft is essential and understanding how ‘Bounce Angle’ can affect the clubs performance in certain situations is really useful as well, so take a look at our videos for further information and start improving your short game today.
