    Question Should all of my Cleveland wedges be the exact same length?

    I just reshafted a brand new club that I bought from my local Golfsmith store. They reshafted all of my clubs the weekend before. I bought a 60 degree loft a couple of days ago and want the same shaft and grips that all of my other clubs have. When I put the club in my bag later tonight, I noticed that the length was longer by 1/2 to 1 inch.

    My questions are these:

    1. Should all of my wegdes have the same length?

    2. If not, then was is a good progression of length?

    3. If this difference is normal, can anyone tell me if Cleveland are making their wedges (especially the 60 degree) longer than they did about 4 to 6 years ago?

    I have 2 RTG 588 wedges (49 degree bent to 52 degress and a 56 degrees), the new RTG+ 588 wedge (60 degrees), and a my pitching wedge (Callaway X-12 at 46.5 degrees). From what I can tell, all of my Cleveland wedges should have a length of 35.25 inches. My Callaway pitching wedge would be .25 inches longer at 35.5 inches.

    Thank you to anyone who has gone through this.

    I thought wedges were supposed to be the same length. Maybe whoever reshafted them messed up ? I will check the lengths of my wedges today as I am going to get in a round!

    My Titleist Vokey 52,56,60 are all the same length. I would assume that Cleveland's should be the same as well.

    Thank you so much for your words. I will talk to Golfsmith in the morning and see if can tell my why one of the shafts is .25 to .5 inchess longer than all of my 3 other wedges. My Callaway Pitching wedge and my 2 older RTG Cleveland wedges (52 & 56 degrees) were all the same length. This wedge was done as a 2nd redo after they put a stiff shaft on incorrectly at first. I guess they rushed it or just didn't realize what happened. That extra 1/2 inch is annoying though I could choke down on the club, but it means that I have to be careful.

    I got all my wedges (pw, sw and lw) all adjusted to my adjusted pw length.

    So all my wedges play a half inch over the standard pw length.
    I feel sorry for Skeet boy's cat...

    My wedges are all the same now. Thanks for the help! I think it will be easier for me to work with them, when I don't have to think about the clubs' differences. I am not experience enough to be at that level.
