It used to frustrate me like hell (and as you read this, then I'm sure you feel the same) if you have a great shot approach, but at the end of a club or play so close to the green. Would you believe they are now guarded by a shot in a deep bunker in front of the green with very little ground, with, before tackling the job of a pen! What to do next? Well, the safe pick here would be to play a chip and run on the side of the bunker in the heart of the green will leave you with a longputt par.
The alternative would be setting the bunker with a club loft producing a flop up with the ball lands softly on the green registration to do. This would give you every chance of landing in the hole. If you play this recording, and the subsequent reaction is to reach the loft club in your bag, you have a problem is really tight lie on the grass very short and only a sand wedge available - think again. I learned the hard way that tryingthis recording with a sand wedge open the face of disaster may end up with the ball in the bunker and bring confidence to shreds. The problem is that with a sand wedge with a high proportion of what we have done is called "Bounce."
Lob Wedge
What is Bounce?
Quite simply the bounce of the wedge by the clubhead, the contact with the ground is covered, effectively becomes the club head bounce off the turf and bounces off the angle is determined byThe unique design. The higher this angle then developed more bounce.
The rebound at the top of a sand wedge is perfect for bunker shots or shots to open up in front approach, where the ground is soft or have a lot of grass under the ball. A lob wedge can make the difference are in a tight, as a club with less loft than the bounce, the more opportunity the club under the ball means to produce the shot you're looking for.An investment in a lob wedge can certainly improve your game shots around the greens and, finally, behind your handicap. Do not make the mistake of choosing one with a small amount of bounce to say 8 degrees or less, as this can be very difficult to play. It's a bounce of about 10/12 degrees flexibility is necessary to recall once the confidence in themselves, as if you were beating a standard pitching wedge.
