A gap wedge fills the yardage hole between your pitching wedge and sand wedge. The right one adds precision on those 80-110 yard shots that make or break a round. We tested top models across brands and playing styles. Here are our picks, along with what to look for when choosing yours.
Callaway Mack Daddy CB
A forgiving gap wedge with a bigger sweet spot. The Callaway Mack Daddy CB is great for high handicappers looking for a club that makes it easy to find the sweet spot. The cavity-back design promotes maximum forgiveness, the Full-Face Groove design provides more spin and control, and the versatile sole grind delivers maximum playability from any lie.
Cleveland RTX ZipCore
The most radical wedge in Cleveland Golf's history, essentially rebuilt from the ground up with changes to the center of gravity, groove technology, sole grinds, and overall construction. Offers exceptional spin and control, making it our top pick for precise shots around the green.
TaylorMade Milled Grind 2
Precision-milled from raw material for consistent performance. The Milled Grind 2 delivers reliable spin and trajectory control with a ZTP-17 raw face design that increases friction for more spin.
Mizuno T20 Satin Chrome Wedge
A forged wedge with exceptional feel and control. The grain flow forging process produces a buttery impact sensation that skilled players crave, while the Hydro Flow micro grooves channel moisture away for consistent spin in wet conditions.
Cobra KING MIM
Made using a metal injection molding process for precise shaping and consistent performance. The KING MIM delivers excellent feel and versatility around the greens with a one-piece construction.
Mizuno JPX 921 Hot Metal
A game-improvement option with a wider sole and more forgiveness than traditional blade wedges. Good for golfers who want gap wedge performance with added confidence on mishits.
