Thought about it - its greater than, so what?

There's more to it than just swingweight IMO because all of us (assumed) play with wedges that have higher swing weight than the rest of the set.

It has to have something to do with the fact that the sweetspot is further from the hosel than the rest of the irons. If its true that the club rotates around the sweetspot, then it would require more effort to rotate the club so to speak when the hosel to sweetspot distance is greater. So on less than full power swings with a wedge, the hosel and sweetspot want to stay lined up moreso? :confused:

Obviously this distance is greatest with the driver - but we typically only swing the driver at near full effort.

I agree whole heartedly with your comments, regarding design. Its because of that design that in an earlier post I mentioned what I did to stop the shanks that I was having with LW,SW & Gap only. I am not hyping a particular product but the F2+ wedges are designed pulling the hosel back and moving clubface forward, NO MORE HOSEL, NO MORE SHANKS. I bought them they work have had them now for about 3 months and NEVER A SHANK AGAIN.
