Independent: we don't sell clubs, and stores can't pay for placement. How we work

Fill my bag

Pick the iron set you play, and we show which wedge lofts fill the gaps below it and which hybrid or fairway wood sits above it, with the clubs we cover in those lofts.

Your set

Wedges to add after your set
Hand

We start from the 4-iron (or your set's longest iron) to the pitching wedge; you can change both with your results. Lofts come from each set's factory specs. Even gaps are a starting point: a fitting or a range session confirms your distances.

How it works

Below your set. We spread the wedges you ask for evenly from your last club up to 56, 58 or 60 degrees (one, two or three wedges), rounded to the even lofts wedges are sold in, and flag any gap wider than 6 degrees or tighter than 3. Where your set has its own wedge at that loft, it comes first.

Above your set. The next club up sits about 3 to 4 degrees stronger than your longest iron: a hybrid from about 19 degrees, a fairway wood or strong hybrid from 15 to 18.5, a 3-wood below that. Clubs from your irons' brand come first. Not sure which? See long irons, hybrids or a 7-wood.

Bounce, in one line. More bounce suits soft turf and steep swings, less suits firm turf and shallow swings; the stamp tells you both (a Vokey 56.10S is 56 degrees of loft, 10 of bounce, S grind). More in wedge bounce and grind, explained.
