Wedge Fitting

The goal of a wedge fitting is to provide the best combination of wedges to optimize short game performance and yardage gaps necessary for lowering scores. The Golf Shot Wedge Fitting will guide the player through the process of selecting wedge model, bounce, and spin characteristics.

Club Properties

Our fitter will identify the proper sole profile that best suits the player's short game technique. Bounce and sole width work hand-in-hand to provide golfer's with ideal turf interaction that compliments their swing style.

Swing Styles

There are also two primary swing styles that will determine which wedge variables are best for the player's short game technique.

SLIDER/SWEEPER

This player has a shallow angle of attack and slides the leading edge of the club under the ball. They will play their best with a wedge that has a narrow sole, less bounce and more camber.

DRIVER/DIGGER

This player type uses less hand action, a stronger grip, and steeper angle of attack. This player may position the ball back in their stance and trap the ball at impact. This player will play their best with a wedge that has wider sole, more bounce and less camber.

In order to identify each golfer's swing style the fitter will apply lie tape to wedges with different bounce and sole characteristics and have the player hit shots from a lie board. The impact marks are evaluated to determine the player's wedge swing style.

In addition, the impact tape identifies if the player's lie angle should be adjusted with their wedges. Many better players use wedges that have a flatter lie angle than their set of irons.
