Soft greens. Slightly uphill. False front and the ball is slightly sitting down in the rough. It's about 20-25 feet away

Personally I took my 56* out and chipped up and knocked in the par putt from 4 feet.
 
Simple one.

Chutt, no bermuda to stop you, not too many bumps to mess up line, tap in par ftw!
 
Would definitely be my 54* where I would attempt a lob shot with the ball sitting up, slightly open stance but making sure to carry enough to avoid the false front. Would love to land 4 feet short of the flag and let it release just a tad and roll in?!?!
 
52 degree and land about 3 feet in front of green.....roll out

I would be attempting this too.
 
I'd pitch with my 57.

Lock this thread up. There can be no other answer.
 
I'd hit a low pitch with some spin with my 53*. Land it just on the green and let it release towards the hole.

Hopefully.
 
I'm taking either a 60 or 56 and flying it mostly to the hole with some spin. The soft greens and the uphill shot would help and I wouldn't have to worry about the false front.
 
Skull it into the false front and roll 30 ft past. 3-putt for double.
 
If it's really soft (like day after a rain storm soft), I probably pitch the 54* (maybe even the 58*) just short of the green and kill it in the soft turf.

If the surface is pretty dry, I probably play a bump and run with an 8i up the hill.


If I'm mikedean, I'm pulling the chutter and hoping for the best...
 
i would have done the same as you but used my 58 and hopefully got a similar result.

LOL..couldn't resist since I don't get to see this often.
56* Cleveland CB 588 RTX...in the hole baby:
 
52* bump and run
 
See that's the cool thong about such a short shot so many different options

There's my shot. That or chunk it 8 ft...then skull it.
 
Bump it out with my 52* and let it snug up to the stick.
 
pull out the 58, fly it to about a half foot from the pin, have some spin to stop the ball on the spot since it's coming out of the rough.

60* and try to lob it up, skull it right into the bunker. Take 2 attempts to get out only to fly the green to the original position. Bump and run like I should of to 2 feet and putt.

You're going to purposely hit it into the bunker sideways? Interesting strategy haha
 
I'd chip a 60* just short of the green and hope it works out.
