I've always wanted to hit a "burning wedge" shot -- the low trajectory, high spin pitch that takes a bounce or two and stops. I've seen a lot of tips on how to hit it, but they never seem to work for me.
Here's what I tried last weekend:
I used my 58*. Set up was back in my stance (almost at my right foot). I choked down on the club and had the face slightly closed. I took an abbreviated swing and bowed my left wrist at impact and kept the club low after contact. I was trying to "pinch" the ball into the turf.
Each time I tried the shot, the ball would fly low and sound like it had some spin. But, it would release every time it hit the green. I tried the shot from 20-30 yards and 30-40 yards with the same results, i.e., low-trajectory shot that ultimately released on the green.
Any suggestions?
