What is the loft for a d wedge golf club?

Answer 1

The "A" wedge is sometimes lumped with the Gap wedge although increasingly more often they are split out for the gap to be defined as 50-54 degrees while the "A" (or approach) wedge is between 46 and 50. These have increased in popularity as manufacturers have decreased the loft of irons for the purposes of range through the 90's as more and more golfers (whether by improved skills, manufacturing techniques or "forgiveness") were able to hit short irons much more consistently.

The Nike Golf site lists the A wedge as a 50 degree loft and 64.5 degree lie.

Answer 2

A U wedge is a utility wedge, i assume it is made by Ping. If so it is 50 degrees. If it is made by another company it is basically the same as a gap wedge, in which case it would have 50-52 degrees of loft.

Answer 3

I carry a Lob wedge in my bag and it is a 60 degree loft club. It is one of 4 wedges that I carry. The others are a Pitching wedge which is 45 degree, a Gap wedge which is 51 degree, and a Sand wedge which is 56 degree.

Answer 4

A wedge refers to a pitching wedge, which is usually 46-48 degrees, depending on manufacturer.

It depends on which wedge you are talking about. The most common wedges carried today are a pitching wedge, sand wedge and lob wedge. You may also hear reference to a Gap wedge as well.

Generally, a pitching wedge is 52, sand is 56 and lob is 60. Lob wedges can up to 64 as well and pitching can sometimes be less than 52 as the other person above said.
