If you want better wedge shots, shorten up your backswing.  If you take a long backswing on your wedge shot, you will probably decelerate your swing as you come into impact.  The deceleration will cause you to hit the ball poorly.  The result will probably be the shot will come up well short or miss your target badly.  Swing back so that your hands are just above your waist and the club is hinged up.  Make a good turn with your hips and shoulders, and accelerate into the ball.  You will discover that your distance will be good, and your accuracy will improve greatly.  Try this technique and you will hit better wedge shots.
