“What’s the difference between the Square Strike Wedge and just using my 7 or 8 iron for chipping?”

Good question. That's actually one we get a lot. The answer is that the Square Strike Wedge is simply a more effective chipping wedge or pitching wedge than a 7-iron – or any other traditional iron. Here’s what the SSW has that those clubs don’t: 1. Shorter length (35.5” vs. a 7-iron at ~37”). It’s easier to control and you don’t have to grip down on the club. 2. The lie angle of a putter (68°), which is 5-6 degrees more upright than a 7-iron. This puts you closer to the ball and promotes a simple, straight-back-and-through, pendulum-style motion for greater control and consistency. 3. A heavier clubhead, which engages your arms and shoulders in a putting-stroke type motion while minimizing hand and wrist action. Amateurs using lighter traditional clubs tend to overuse their hands/wrists and flick the club at the ball, which causes fat and thin shots. 4. Extra weight toward the toe, so the clubhead stays square rather than rotating sharply through impact. Golfers rave about how accurate (on-line) their shots are with the Square Strike Wedge. 5. An extra-wide sole and beveled leading edge, which keeps the Square Strike from digging into the turf (causing fat shots) or snagging in the grass. Traditional irons have much thinner, sharper soles and leading edges. 6. More loft for greater versatility. There’s a misperception that the Square Strike Wedge has the loft of a 7- or 8-iron. Actually, its 45° loft is 12 – 15 degrees more than a 7-iron, so you can play a wide variety of shots (not just low runners). The Square Strike Wedge is all around an easier-to-hit club than many other golf clubs for men and women.

Yes, the Square Strike Wedge conforms to the rules of golf, so it is legal and can be used as a pitching wedge or chipping wedge in tournament play.

Can the 55 degree SSW be used out of a sand trap?

I’ve used it out of a sand trap; several times. At 55*, its trajectory is not real high; but I’ve got out of a lipped bunker a couple of times. This 55* is probably best from 30 yards out, and on the fringe of the green. One of my favorite clubs, and I’m using TM Stealth irons, which are great.

I don't know which loft to choose. Im a weekend golfer. What do you suggest?

The 45° is the featured loft which you see in most of our advertisements. It’s best from about 50 yards and in, on shots that you want to bump and run right at the target. The 55° and 60° will give you more loft availability for faster greens that you need to check up on, or shots where you need to carry a bunker. The 45° will easily replace whatever wedge you use most often for chipping and for short pitch shots, and you could swap your standard sand or lob wedge for the Square Strike 55° or 60°
