Best wedge sole, loft, width, and grind for chipping. Wedge chipping and full shots from fairway and rough. Imagine tight, wet, wet lies.

Hi Bill,
Thanks for the post.
The right sole, loft and grind for chipping is really player and condition dependent. It is always best to see a local fitter and try different wedges to see which ones fit your game. With that said, typically individuals who play in very soft and wet conditions benefit from wedges with more bounce and wider soles (K grind, F grind). Vice versa, golfers who tend to hit chip shots thin, or play in hard and firm conditions, benefit from wedges with less bounce and narrower soles (T grind, L grind).
Hopefully this helps.
