Rules:
The rules of Wedge are essentially the same as g*lf, where the goal is to hit your Wedge ball from the tee-box to rest within the Wedge scoring ring. Each stroke of the club equals a point, and the fewer the points the better. However, Wedge is different from g*lf in three important ways:
In Wedge, players are only allowed to use one club for the entire round. Players typically will use a wedge club of some type, including pitching, sand, lob, and gap wedges, or even 9 irons.
Regular g*lf balls ARE NOT allowed. Instead, Wedge uses soft-flight golf ball that travel much less distance and won't damage things if your shot goes off the mark. To qualify as a Wedge ball, the ball must 1) weigh no more than 15 grams (0.529 ounces) and 2) be between 41 and 43 millimeters (1.61-1.69 inches). We recommend Almost Golf balls or Callaway HX Practice Golf Balls for the best results.
The target for Wedge is not a g*lf cup, but rather a Wedge scoring ring. You'll be using your Wedge club to hit the ball towards the hoop, until it comes to rest INSIDE the hoop.
