The Leading Edge - Iron fitting

Many golfers don't realize that the leading edge of their Irons are a fitting variable often overlooked. The leading edge variables can be described as narrow (thin & sharper), medium (more rounded and a bit thicker) and blunt(very rounded and larger). Depending on the Tur & Sand conditions, the leading edge can be matched to course conditions.
If you hit the ball Fat or have very soft turf, changing to the next more rounded/blunter leading edge can help prevent the club from "digging in". If you hit too many Thin shots or your Turf or sand traps are harder/thinner, a sharper leading edge can dig in a bit and get under the ball.
