PGA Master Professional Dan Grieve explains how to hit crisp, reliable short game shots from tight lies. He breaks down the essential setup tweaks and shallow attack angle required to let the club bounce work without digging or catching the ball thin.
Keep weight favored slightly on the lead foot without leaning excessive shaft lean into the ground.
Maintain a shallow angle of attack so the wedge's bounce skims the turf smoothly.
Avoid excessive wrist hinge which creates a steep downswing into tight ground.
Rotate your body through impact to ensure smooth acceleration and clean contact.
