Golf for Women Add precision around the green with these new specialty wedges. By Stina Sternberg Think of the pitching and sand wedges that come with your set of clubs as Fords and Chevys. By comparison, specialty wedges are Porsches and Ferraris. They’re more delicately designed and come with myriad lofts, bounce angles and sole grinds, all to help you fine-tune your chips, pitches and bunker shots. They’re your ticket to touch. Tom Wishon Golf Thinner, more closely spaced grooves (inset) put more edges on the ball at impact for increased backspin. $80; wishongolf.com Scratch Golf LDG The ground-down leading edge of this women-specific design helps prevent thin shots for players with slower, shallower swings. $159; scratchgolf.com F2 Face Forward A recessed hosel (inset) eliminates shanks from the sand and grass. $100; f2golf.com. Nike Golf SV Tour This soft, cast wedge has U-shaped grooves for increased spin; the satin chrome finish reduces glare. $110; nikegolf.com Cleveland Golf 588 DSG A double-angled sole (inset) keeps the leading edge of the blade close to the ground even when you open the face. $133; clevelandgolf.com Callaway Golf X-Tour Forged for increased feel, this club is larger in size than previous Callaway Golf wedges to allow for a bigger sweet spot. $119; callawaygolf.com Ping iWedge A polymer-filled cavity maximizes feel and forgiveness. $115; pinggolf.com. |
