    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bounce_(golf)

    In golf, bounce or bounce angle is the angle inscribed by the leading edge of a golfing iron (particularly a wedge), the sole of the club, and the ground. In plainer terms, bounce angle is an indication of how much the sole, or bottom-most part, of the club head lifts the leading edge.

  3. Pitching wedge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitching_wedge

    Though technically a wedge, pitching wedges are generally treated as if they were numbered irons.This is for a number of reasons: first, before the term "wedge" became common for high-loft short irons, the pitching wedge was actually numbered as the "10-iron" of a matched set, and to this day it follows the normal loft progression of the numbered irons.

  4. Wedge (golf) - Wikipedia

    The class of wedges grew out of the need for a better club for playing soft lies and short shots. Prior to the 1930s, the best club for short "approach" shots was the "niblick", roughly equivalent to today's 9-iron or pitching wedge in loft; however the design of this club, with a flat, angled face and virtually no "sole", made it difficult to use in sand and other soft lies as it was prone to ...

    Wedges are usually identified by a letter denoting their function (P, G, S, L, etc. sometimes with a W appended), or depending on the manufacturer, with a number denoting their loft angle (52°, 56°, 60°) and "bounce angle" (0-12°). The pitching wedge is the lowest-lofted club typically called a wedge. It lies on the cusp between the ...

  7. Gap wedge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gap_wedge

    Most players look for a separation of 4 degrees between clubs, and so with the standard pitching and sand wedge lofts, the complementary gap wedge would be 52°. Within the range of lofts seen in gap wedges, the angle that the sole makes to the ground at address, also known as the club's "bounce angle", varies from 0° up to 12° or more.
