How to Dial in Your Wedges

Wedge play is an area we often neglect when we are practicing. Yet if you watch the professionals play, they constantly turn three shots into two by hitting wedges close to the hole. This is an area you can improve as well, which is a sure way to get your handicap down.
To be successful, you must be far more precise about distance than with the longer irons. Being 6 or 7 yards out with a mid iron will still leave you on the green, which for most amateurs is all they're trying to do. With the wedges, you want to aim for more precision and get the distances as nearly perfect as you can, so that you leave yourself a short putt for birdie or to save your par.
