The transition from your iron set to your first wedge is often overlooked, but choosing the right sole, forgiveness, and versatility can make a big difference to consistency.
The transition club between your irons and first wedge can be one of the most overlooked parts of the golf bag.
While many golfers gravitate towards a specialty wedge with a narrower sole, a club that more closely resembles their set wedge can provide greater forgiveness and consistency.
Depending on the shots and turf conditions, a wider sole and larger cavity can help with distance control and ball flight. Golfers looking to play a wider variety of shots may instead benefit from a narrower sole that offers more options for changing height, flight and stopping power.
A proper fitting can help determine which transition wedge best suits your game.
