For some players, there is a disconnect between their irons and their wedges. For golfers who play super game-improvement and larger game-improvement irons, the transition from the last oversized iron in the set to the first undersized specialty wedge can be jarring.
Most specialty wedges like Vokey SM10 and Callaway’s Opus are significantly more compact than the irons many golfers play. For some, that’s no big deal. For others, it’s like going from driving a Suburban to a Mini Cooper.
In many cases, set-matched wedges are an option but it’s also true that for those tagalong extensions, manufacturers often skip the highly aggressive grooves that are the key to specialty wedge performance.
So what do you do if you want the performance of a real wedge but also want something with the looks and, to an extent, the performance of your SGI and GI irons?
In recent years, many manufacturers have done a better job extending their wedge lineups to include what qualifies as game-improvement options. While I might argue that, at wedge lofts, MOI is less of a factor and that forgiveness comes as much, if not more, from the sole grind, there is nevertheless a contingency that prefers a higher MOI or, if nothing else, a bigger wedge.

Reebok is riding the shmedium sleeves of bulked-up Bryson “Biceps” Dechambeau to a successful return to the golf course. The brawny bomber has been rocking their gear for a little bit now, including the all-new Nano Golf.
I’ve often been told by coworkers that I resemble Dechambeau, (minus the cankles…. he wishes), so it’s only right that I give his golf shoes a proper test.
Before we dive right in, it’s worth noting that Dechambeau wears a custom pair, complete with spikes. The retail pair is spikeless, so take that for what it is.
Let’s dive right in.
Nano is, at least in this decade, the most successful shoe Reebok has put out. Nano is a CrossFit icon, the shoe worn by some of the fittest athletes in the world.
Watch any old footage of Jack Nicklaus or Tom Watson getting ready to hit a tee shot and you’ll notice something: they look completely at ease. No practice swings, no technical thoughts, just pure confidence. Meanwhile, many of today’s golfers often approach the driver like it’s some mystical weapon they’re not worthy to wield.
What changed?
Don’t get me wrong—I love modern technology. Launch monitors, ground force data and swing analysis have revolutionized how we understand the golf swing. These tools are incredible for fine-tuning and identifying technical flaws that the naked eye might miss.
But here’s what I’ve discovered after years of teaching and coaching: sometimes the missing piece isn’t more data. Sometimes it’s a simple image or feel that the great teachers and players from golf’s golden era understood instinctively. The kind of timeless wisdom that cuts through all the noise and gives a golfer exactly what they need to make a confident swing.
These aren’t new discoveries buried in some dusty instruction manual. They’re the same fundamentals that every great driver has relied on, from Bobby Jones to Tiger Woods. The difference is that they often get buried under layers of technical analysis—when sometimes all a golfer needs is the right mental picture to make everything click.
The driver is designed to hit the ball on the upswing, not down like an iron. Tee the ball high enough that half sits above the driver’s crown—this sets up optimal launch conditions naturally.
Most golfers tee too low but this forces a downward strike that kills distance. Trust your driver’s loft and sweep the ball off the tee with an ascending blow.
Power comes from rotation, not arm strength. In your backswing, turn your back toward the target while keeping your head steady. On the downswing, turn your chest toward the target while letting your arms follow naturally.
This sequence ensures your body leads the swing while your arms lag behind, creating the whip-like action that produces distance and accuracy.
This image fixes more driver swings than any technical instruction. When throwing underhand, you naturally shift weight, turn your body and release at the right moment. Your driver swing should feel identical.
Start with weight slightly favoring your back foot, then shift forward through impact, just like that underhand throw.
Great drivers swing to a complete, balanced finish position. This ensures acceleration through the ball rather than deceleration at impact.
Practice holding your finish for three seconds—balanced on your front foot, chest facing the target, back foot up on its toe. If you can’t hold this position comfortably, your swing needs work.
There are those decisions golfers make when they don’t know any better. Things like forgetting to aim, bailing on shots mid-swing or being overly aggressive when hitting over hazards. But what about the mistakes that experienced golfers make? Those subtle, avoidable errors that even good players fall into without realizing it. Here are some of the dumbest mistakes that smart golfers make. If you want to avoid bleeding strokes, start by avoiding these.
If you are still playing clubs because they feel good without paying attention to actual performance, it’s time to stop. We’ve conducted enough testing to know that the clubs that feel good are not always the ones that perform well. The smarter move is to pick what works for your game based on numbers and data. Sometimes that even means learning to love a club because the performance is there!
Once you’re over the ball, the decision has been made. Many golfers (even great players) still nudge the stance open or shift the shoulders at the last second. When this happens, all the alignment work that was done goes away. This move introduces tension, second-guessing and often a compensating swing flaw. Trust the setup and alignment you chose or step away and restart.
Indecision kills more shots than poor contact. As I mentioned, you have to leave the aim in place, but you also have to trust the club you have in your hand. Don’t let doubt creep in because it will result in a tentative or overly aggressive golf swing. Even if you don’t have a perfect club for this shot, convince yourself it’s the best choice and stick to it.
Firing at the number on the rangefinder is rarely the smartest play. Smart golfers sometimes forget to check front and back yardages, slopes or how much room they have to work with. A front pin with a false front or a back pin with no bailout can turn a good shot into a bogey or worse. Take the entire green into consideration, not just the flag.
