Some golfers prefer to use the 46 degree wedge as a pitching wedge, while others feel that it is better off as a gap wedge. When it’s used as a pitching wedge, this kind of club can work wonders when trying to get on the green with one shot.

A 46 degree wedge is best used to add loft, which will enable your shot to get the ball airborne. This can help you if you are trying to put the ball on the green because of its ability to fly over a hill or obstacle.
