I had the opportunity to read an article this week that was so good that I just had to provide you folks the link to it. Here you go…

The author is Martin Park of the Park Golf Academy in Denmark (yep, the world is global).

Wedge fitting is fascinating because to me players can improve significantly their games by having the right wedges and putters in their bags. But it seems like the design of wedges has – for the most part – not changed significantly from the original Sarazen design from about 50 years ago.

Martin Park discusses the following key elements related to picking the right wedges for you…..

LENGTH

LOFT

FLEX

LIE ANGLE

SWINGWEIGHT

GRIP

BOUNCE

SOLE WIDTH

HEAD FINISH

GROOVES

SHAFTS

Lots of possible ways to find clubs that can really help you!

The Fit Is IT!!
