Wedge fitting for a sand wedge

Short Game Clubfitting Tip - The type of  sand wedge is critical. There are so many varying degrees of bounce and types of souls on sand wedges. The choices are almost unlimited so the fitting process for the type of sand wedge best suited for each player is very important.  Believe me, just because it says “sand wedge” on the club doesn’t mean it will work well from the sand.  

How Its Fitted - A good golf professional will have a wide variety of sand wedges with which to fit you.  Not only in terms of brands but in choices of the amount of bounces and soul designs.  Depending on your style of play not only from the sand but from the fairway and rough areas as well, he will be able to determine which wedge works best for you.  Imagine how ridiculous this process would be if it were attempted to be done hitting off a mat into a net.  The professional will be able to make some of the decisions for you but you will also need to offer your input based on how the wedge looks to you and how it feels sliding under the ball on these shots.
