Lob wedge

A Lob Wedge is a high lofted golf club with a loft of between 60 and 67 degrees, and is the most lofted club in a golfer's bag. The Lob Wedge can be used from the fairway, the rough or from bunkers, whenever the player needs to stop the ball quickly on the green.

The amount of bounce on the club usually dictates its primary use, low bounce lob wedges can be used on firmer lies, whilst lob wedges with high bounce are used from the rough or the sand.
