When you are looking at improving your short game, and you look at wedges, they are listed with different bounce numbers with the same loft, what are they talking about?
Titleist golf clubs had a very good explanation and i will try to put into more lay terms for the golfers to understand. Put simply, bounce is the angle and thickness of the bottom of the club (sole). This sole design is either thick or large and has an angle to keep the golf clubs from digging into what ever you are trying to hit the ball out of. Having this bounce is more important on sand shots to help from getting “fat” shots or digging deep under the ball and losing energy on the sand and making the golf ball come up short on your shot.
Having to much bounce on a fairway shot or an area with little grass to hold the ball up can cause you to blade the ball. And we all have done that and the golf balls go 40 yards instead of the 15 yards you intended.
