Golf wedges are used for making bunker and difficult recovery shots. Those with higher lofts are capable of striking balls higher in the air but at shorter distances. Each golfer is advised to use at least three golf wedges in a game to make different shots from the sand to the green.
There are four types of golf wedges: pitching wedges, sand wedges, gap wedges, and lob wedges. They are available in different lengths and weights suitable for adult and children golfers.
Sand Golf Wedges are made with steel shafts. They have oversize backs that cut through sand easily. They are similar to lob wedges. They are used for making bunker and sand shots. They have 55- to 57-degree lofts.
Gap Golf Wedges are made with steel shafts. They are hybrids of sand and pitching wedges that can be used for making a variety of green or bunker shots. They have 51- to 53-degree lofts.
Durability: For durability, choose a golf wedge with a steel shaft. It comes in different stiff levels for amateur, intermediate, and professional golfers with different handicaps.
