Golf is a game that requires creativity. While most golfers take a driver for a long tee shot, a medium-iron for a 160-yard shot from the fairway and a pitching wedge for a shot under 100 yards, there are times to throw out the form book and invent your own shot. Hitting a Texas Wedge means taking out your putter when you are off the green and creating an opportunity to put a par or a birdie on the scorecard.
