What is the benefit of playing with irons or wedges with a custom ground sole?
The key to seeing the benefit of playing a custom ground sole is making sure the grind that is chosen properly fits the players swing. Every person swings the club differently and depending on the players angle of attack and how the clubs goes through the ground a different sole grind is needed to achieve the players maximum ball striking potential. For example a player who has a steep angle of attack and is aggressive through the ball needs more bounce and sole width on their wedges while they need more bounce and camber on their irons. This helps prevent digging and greatly increases their chance for a purely struck shot. On the other hand a person who is has a shallow angle of attack and does not really have much turf interaction or take much of a divot needs lower bounce and a thinner sole on their wedges and lower bounce and less camber on their irons. This allows this type of player to get down into the ball without the sole getting in the way causing a thin shot. Q: I have seen
