Choosing the right wedge setup is about more than just loft. Bounce and grind options determine how your club interacts with the turf and sand, and having the right mix can make your short game much more versatile.
Bounce & Grind Defined:
Bounce is the angle that prevents digging. Grind is the sole shaping that adds versatility.
High Bounce / Wider Soles:
Best for soft turf or fluffy sand, adding forgiveness and helping steep swingers avoid digging.
Low Bounce / Aggressive Grinds:
Perfect for firm turf and tight lies, allowing more face manipulation for creative shots. Ideal for shallow swingers.
Why Mix Options in Your Bag?
Carrying wedges with different bounce and grind profiles gives you tools for every lie, avoids overlap, and builds confidence.
Practical Fit:
Match to your swing style (steep = more bounce, shallow = less), course conditions (soft = more, firm = less), and shot preferences.
Bounce and grind aren’t one-size-fits-all. They should reflect your swing, your course conditions, and how you like to play shots. A balanced wedge setup ensures you’re prepared for any lie around the green, turning tricky situations into scoring opportunities.
