The main difference between wedges is the degree of loft each wedge has. The higher the loft angle, the faster the golf ball will travel into the air.

The four main types of golf wedges are:

  • Pitching Wedge (PW): This is the most common wedge, usually having a loft between 44° to 48°. It's used for approach shots from the fairway, typically for distances ranging from 100 to 130 yards, depending on the golfer's skill level.
  • Sand Wedge (SW): With a loft typically between 54° and 58°, the sand wedge is designed for bunker shots and getting out of soft sand. It's also useful for approach shots from the rough or for short chips around the green.
  • Lob Wedge (LW): A lob wedge has a loft between 58° and 64°. It is used for high, soft shots that land quickly on the green. It's particularly useful for short, high shots over obstacles like bunkers or water.
  • Gap Wedge (GW): The gap wedge fills the loft gap between the pitching wedge and sand wedge, usually with a loft of 50° to 54°. It's often used for approach shots from about 80 to 110 yards, helping golfers have more control over their short game.

These wedges are essential for handling various short-game shots, from chipping and pitching to sand and lob shots. Each one serves a different purpose depending on the distance, lie, and conditions.

The easiest wedges to hit are cavity-back wedges due to players' ability to loft the ball up in the air without needing a perfect hit.

Buying used gear is a sustainable way to score high-quality items at a fraction of the cost. Not only can you find great deals, but you might also stumble upon rare or discontinued gear that’s no longer available in stores. When buying a used wedge, here's what to look for:

✔️ There are no cracks in the shaft.
✔️ There are no cracks in the club head.
✔️ There are no dents on the sole of the club.
✔️ The hosel is not loose, and the head does not rotate.
