sand wedge

Trap escape tool

A sand wedge is a golf club with a wide, angled face designed primarily for hitting out of sand bunkers.

The heavy sole and high loft help the club slide under the ball and pop it up quickly.

Golfers also use it for short approach shots requiring steep trajectory: She grabbed her sand wedge for the bunker shot.
