Why Every Golfer Needs a Pitching Wedge
Standard Loft Range (44-48°)
The pitching wedge typically carries a loft between 44° and 48°, bridging the gap between your shortest iron and your higher-lofted wedges. It’s the go-to club for controlled approach shots, bump-and-run chips, and those in-between distances where an iron might feel too long and a sand wedge too short.
Role in Approach Shots and Short Game
For many golfers, the pitching wedge is a scoring club. From 100-130 yards out, it offers the perfect balance of control and distance. Around the green, it’s versatile enough for bump-and-run chips, low pitches, and controlled shots that roll out to the pin.
Pitching Wedge vs Gap Wedge vs Sand Wedge
- Pitching wedge (44-48°): Designed for full swings and low-running chips.
- Gap wedge (50-54°): Bridges the distance gap between pitching and sand wedges.
- Sand wedge (54-56°): Ideal for bunkers and high, soft shots around the green.
Carrying a pitching wedge is essential for consistency and proper gapping in your wedge setup.
Buy a Used Pitching Wedge with Confidence
Pre-Owned but High-Quality
Every pitching wedge used in our collection goes through a rigorous inspection process. You’ll find top-quality clubs that perform just as well as new – but at a fraction of the cost.
Inspection and Grading Process
We check every wedge for authenticity, wear, and performance. Each club is graded clearly, from “like new” to “well-loved,” so you’ll know exactly what condition it’s in before you buy.
Affordable Entry to Premium Brands
Buying a second hand pitching wedge allows you to enjoy premium craftsmanship from brands like Titleist Vokey or Cleveland at a price that suits your budget.
Used Pitching Wedges for All Golfers
Beginners Gaining Control and Consistency
A used pitching wedge is an affordable way for beginners to gain confidence. It’s forgiving enough for learning, yet versatile enough to stay in your bag for years.
Intermediate Players Upgrading from Stock Set Wedges
Many iron sets include a pitching wedge, but dedicated wedges from premium brands offer better spin, control, and feel. For intermediates, upgrading to a specialist wedge is a smart move.
Advanced Golfers Fine-Tuning Their Wedge Setup
Low-handicap players often build customised wedge setups to dial in spin and distance gapping. A second hand gap wedge alongside a pitching wedge helps ensure no yardage gaps in your bag.

How to Choose the Right Pitching Wedge
Loft, Bounce, and Grind Explained
- Loft: Pitching wedges usually range from 44-48°. Lower loft provides longer shots, higher loft gives more control.
- Bounce: Refers to the angle of the sole – more bounce helps in soft turf, less bounce is better for firm conditions.
- Grind: Custom shaping of the wedge sole that influences versatility in different lies.
Shaft and Grip Options
Choose steel for stability and consistency, or graphite for lighter weight and feel. Grips also affect comfort and control, so consider whether you prefer a softer or firmer texture.
Matching Wedge to Irons and Short Game Needs
The right pitching wedge should complement your iron lofts and other wedges (gap, sand, lob). This ensures smooth yardage gapping and confidence in every shot from 40-130 yards.
