or not a cut shot - that's the question.

Does it need to be vertical hinging or can a cut shot also be done with angled hinging? Does it even have to be a cut shot? Maybe it is good enough to let it be a normal reguired motion pitch shot?



I find vertical hinging difficult. Maybe angled hinging gets the job done to get the ball high enough with a SW/LW, although it will roll a little more?

By the way - is it the bounce of the SW or the leading edge that hits the ground in these types of shots? Or does that depend on what kind of shot you want to do? (In what way - how does this work?)

To hit short shots higher/cutty-er . . . open the face some move the handle BACK AND DOWN . . . that's gonna make your left wrist look MAJOR BENT . . . which doesn't fit my eye . . . I like the shaft and the left arm IN LINE . . . soooooo rotate your body to an OPEN alignment until you can get your left arm and the shaft IN LINE with the shaft, handle and face conditions you've set up. Then you can angle hinge it or hit your "normal" shot with out feeling like you are manipulating it so much.

PROCEDURE:

1. establish a. amount of face open b. handle height c. amount of layback for the required shot (you may need to experiment with the variables). . . impact fix shaft/handle/face conditions

2. put your grip on with a "normal" or Square Stance

3. See if your brain/eye can handle the "freakish" wrist conditions this specialty shot fix requires . . . if not then

3. Rotate your body left/OPEN until it "flattens" out your left wrist or "lines up" the shaft and your left arm (you may also want to experiment with more knee flex to lower your "COG" that helps in hitting it cutty/high too)

4. Hit the shot.
