What is another word for pitching wedge?
Pronunciation: [pˈɪt͡ʃɪŋ wˈɛd͡ʒ] (IPA) 
A pitching wedge is a type of golf club that is designed to help players hit high, short shots with accuracy. However, there are several synonyms for a pitching wedge that can be used interchangeably. Some of these synonyms include sand wedge, approach wedge, gap wedge, and lob wedge. A sand wedge is similar to a pitching wedge, but it has a more angled face that helps players get out of sand traps. An approach wedge has a slightly lower loft than a sand wedge and is designed to help players make precise approach shots. A gap wedge falls in between a pitching wedge and a sand wedge, and a lob wedge has the highest loft of all, making it ideal for high arcing shots.
