The short game, where the score is made.
The wedges are the clubs with the most loft in the bag, designed for approaches, bunker escapes, and delicate shots around the green. After the pitching wedge, there's the gap wedge, around fifty-two degrees, the sand wedge, from fifty-four to fifty-six, and the lob wedge, from fifty-eight to sixty degrees. Space your wedges four to six degrees apart to cover all distances.
Men's clubs also come in:
All clubs are gathered on the men's clubs page.
The bounce is the angle formed by the sole of the wedge, which prevents it from digging into the ground or sand. A high bounce, like the ten degrees of the Cleveland RTZ left-handed, is suited for bunkers with soft sand and swings that take a lot of turf. A low bounce, like the eight degrees of the RTZ Full Face, is suited for firm ground and players who sweep the ball.
Cleveland Golf, a recognized wedge specialist, designs the RTZ range. The Full Face version extends the grooves across the entire face, to maintain spin on shots played with a very open face. The Wilson Harmonized, very open, is suitable for lobs and bunker exits. Grooves wear out: a heavily used wedge is replaced to regain spin.

After the pitching wedge, you add a gap wedge around fifty-two degrees, a sand wedge from fifty-four to fifty-six, and a lob wedge from fifty-eight to sixty, spaced four to six degrees apart.
The bounce is the angle of the sole that prevents it from sinking into the ground. A high bounce is suitable for soft sand and soft terrains, while a low bounce is for firm ground and players who take little turf.
The grooves of the Cleveland RTZ Full Face cover the entire width of the face. Shots struck towards the toe, common with an open face, retain more spin and control around the green.
Yes, the Cleveland RTZ is available in a left-handed version, here at fifty-eight degrees, an ideal loft for high shots and delicate bunker escapes.
When the grooves dull, the ball grips less and backspin decreases, especially on short approaches. A heavily used wedge loses its bite faster than an iron: watch the condition of the face.
