Wedges are specialized irons. The typical wedges include gap wedge, sand wedge, and lob wedge. Gap and lob wedges are common for experienced players and sand wedges are common for all players. Sand wedges are invented to make shots out of sand bunkers easier.

 

Wedges feature the shortest shafts and highest lofts of any golf clubs. Wedges are often identified by their loft.
