Test a swing change with a 7 or 8 iron, not a wedge

When testing whether a swing change is actually working, the speaker says to hit a seven or eight iron rather than a wedge. With wedges you can get away with a lot and still hit acceptable shots, so they mask the change, while a seven iron exposes it because you can't get away with as much.
