Ben Hogan Colonial Wedge - Golf Equipment Review

  • Ben Hogan Colonial Wedge

    The precision carbon steel used for the forged Colonial wedges has a remarkably soft feel, and the wedges slight offset promotes a consistent trajectory--a characteristic desired by better players. A low-bounce trailing edge and Tour-inspired heel grind lend shotmaking versatility on both closed - and open - faced shots. The satin finish reduces glare while the maximum allowable groove width generates excellent spin (features demanded by Hogan's stable of Tour pros). Also available are the cast, Tungsten EDM-coated Carnoustie wedges, the Tour-inspired Riviera line and new Sure-Out lob and sand wedges, which are remakes of the Hogan classic.

Takeaway Practice Place a cone behind you and practice your takeaway just trying to nick the top of the cone, if you hit the middle you are too far inside and if you take it back over the cone then your takeaway is going outside
Playing In The Wind In strong winds make sure to take more club, play the ball back in your stance and shorten your swing from shoulder to shoulder length to create a low, piercing shot
Always Make Junior Golf Fun Make practice and playing fun for your kids at all times, do not let a four year old take 30 foot putts that he takes five shots to sink, start them out at two or three feet so they can see the ball go into the cup, then move to four feet, and always keep them around the green at an early age, teaching them to enjoy the short game
