Description
To gain confidence with wedges you need a wedge distance chart. With wedges, you want to have at least two “stock” distances. Because a lot of shots you’ll face on the golf course aren’t a full number—even if you gap your wedges three to four degrees apart. Often, the distance is between a pitching and gap or gap wedge and sand wedge. That’s why you need to have multiple distances for each wedge. When you have two stock distances with each wedge, things get lost easier in the scoring zone. One is your “full” number, while the other is your “knockdown” or 3/4 swing number. The knockdown number requires little other than choking down about an inch to an inch and a half. By shortening the club, you will lose some distance and gain some control. Plus, you should improve the strike and reduce the spin. Once you get excellent and become a single-digit handicap player, aim for three distances for each wedge—a full number, a knockdown, and a distance where you choke up almost to the shaft.
