If it s 45 degrees or less add three more wedges that are spaced apart by no more than 4 5 degrees each.
Sand wedge loft and bounce.
A high bounce for a sand wedge has 10 14 degrees of bounce.
You have steep golf swing and tend to make deep divots after contact.
The more sand wedge bounce there is the greater the angle between the leading edge and the lowest point on the sole.
The bounce angle is the angle from the leading edge to the point where the sole actually meets the ground.
Angle of attack is the first thing you should determine about your golf swing when deciding what type of bounce and sole width you want on a wedge angle of attack is.
A sand wedge s sole or bottom is wider than other club s soles.
The loft is similar to that.
The sand wedge an angled sole measured in degrees of bounce that performs better in fluffy sand.
Typically the sand wedge loft is between 54 58 degrees.
Vokey offers three unique sand wedge grinds m s f to fit every type of player and course condition.
Wedge bounce is the angle created between the leading edge and the lowest point of the sole or trailing edge.
Whilst many people think wedges sit flat on the ground this is not true.
This is the area of the club that hits through the ground as it contacts the ball.
Like loft the bounce of a club is measured in degrees.
So generally think about putting in a gap wedge that s.
The sand wedge typically has a loft ranging from 54 to 58 degrees.
The bounce and grind on a sand wedge helps determine how much the wedge digs into the ground as you make contact with the ball.
The gap wedge also known as the approach wedge got its name because it fills the distance gap between the pitching wedge and sand wedge.
Likewise wedges vary in the typical amount of bounce you can expect and that is regularly the result of the angle created when the sole is below the leading edge.
Usually the highest lofted club a golfer will carry the lob wedge creates a very steep angle of ascent and descent for shots that must get up very quickly perhaps for example to get over a tree and for shots that you want to hit.
The higher the degree of bounce to a club the better it runs over the ground rather than cutting into it.
Golfers generally know that the loft of a club helps get the ball in the air.
You should think about using a sand wedge with a lower loft if.
So named because it falls in between the pitching wedge and sand wedge in loft the gap wedge has more loft than a pw less loft than a sw.
Simply put the bounce is your friend and is designed to help the club literally bounce off the ground to add forgiveness when making contact.
But bounce which according to the sand trap is the angle of the sole against the ground at address is just as important to a good golf shot as loft.
This magnifies the effective bounce of the club and build seven more resistance when driving through the sand.
The greater the wedge bounce degree the higher the leading edge is off the surface at address.
