When you have the right wedge set, you can easily make birdie or get out of a tricky golf situation with par. A wrong one, on the other hand, can expose you on the golf course and even cost you a few valuable shots.
Generally, golfers will have three golf wedges in their set. Pros like Rory Mcllroy, Justin Thomas, etc., often have four in their golf bag.
However, the course you’re playing on should determine the number in your set. It can also come down to personal choice, where you’re determining what feels/looks good, have appropriate bounce, and fitting suitable for your game.
If you’re playing on a short course, for instance, having more wedges on hand is important. The opposite is true too, where you need a smaller number if the course is long. A hybrid or a fairway wood may serve as a backup.
A good combination would then be a 45, 50, 56, 60 or 45, 50, 54, 60, or 45, 50, 55, 60. The combination of brands isn’t that important. Your set can include different brands like Callaway, Titleist, Cleveland, Mizuno, TaylorMade, all of which have great clubs to choose from.
