Sand Wedge : What is it?

sandwedge1

Sand wedges are golf clubs with 54- to 57-degree lofts. They are ideal for making shots extending up to 90 yards for men and 80 yards for women. They have oval shapes below the faces, unique clubhead designs, and heel-toe cambers. Since they have more sole widths than other wedge types, they dig less into the turf. Sand wedges have bounces measuring 10 to 16 degrees.
