Choosing the Clubhead Design
The Difference Between ‘Forged’ & ‘Cast’ Wedges
With the emphasis on distance control and feel, most wedges are made from ‘forged’ steel or softer feeling ‘cast’ steel to give the player greater feedback. The differences between forged and cast steel clubs simply stand in the creation and treatment process, which can have a great effect on the feel, and often quality, of the club.
Cast Wedges
Cast wedges are created by pouring liquid metal into a mould where it then cools and solidifies into the desired club shape. This process can often be more cost effective and more efficient as mass quantities of wedges can be produced using just one mould. Cast wedges are often harder in feel, however some brands such as Ping, have managed to product cast clubs that produce a softer feel then normal, revolutionising the game.
Forged Wedges
A forged wedge is born from a solid piece of metal that has been manipulated into shape using thermal and mechanical forces. The metal for a forged club is often a softer carbon metal which is more costly however forged clubs have become so advanced due to technological improvements that they often stand as the more popular option.
Clubhead Sole Design
When choosing what wedge to go for, consider the clubhead sole design features, including the bounce and grind, as they can greatly influence your play. Most wedges have similar head shapes and sizes however they will vary in groove and sole designs as well as the positioning of the center of gravity which helps to control the trajectory of the shot.
Bounce
The bounce of the club is the angle created between the leading edge and the lowest point of the trailing edge, creating contact with the ground and the ball. Some manufacturers offer 3 bounce options and up to 6 grind options so choosing the right bounce of a clubhead can become confusing.
As a general rule if you have a relatively steep angle of attack, meaning you take large divots, then you’ll want a higher bounce. Whereas a player with a shallower angle of attack, meaning you take little or no divot, will want a lower bounce. You’ll find the bounce to be important on a Sand Wedge as it prevents the player from digging into the sand. Higher bounce options are great for players who struggle getting out of bunkers. If you already carry a lob wedge, then a lower bounce option would help strike the ball off hard or tight ground.
Grind
The grind removes material from the sole of the club so the contact with the ground can be maximized. Pitching and gap wedges usually come with a standard grind, however, there can be up to 6 grind options on the Sand and Lob Wedges. Whether you prefer to address the ball with a square clubface or a manipulated clubface open for greater versatility, find the best grind to suit your game.
