My gut tells me that wedges.info would indeed be better. But if you look at overture numbers, its a different story:
wedge - 7,569 overture searches
wedges - zero overture count
golf wedge - 1,035 overture searches
Also, while wedge.* is taken in all popular extensions, there are still a lot of wedges.* and golfwedges.* currently available.
I wonder why? Probably just because wedge by itself is easier to type.
It might also be because there are multiple defintions for the word wedge, some of which have nothing to do with golf:
