Meandmygolf instructors help a student overcome low-spinning, long-flying wedge shots by correcting a closed clubface and a 'ball-back' setup. The lesson focuses on rotating the clubface open in the backswing and narrowing the stance for finesse shots to achieve a consistent 30-degree launch angle.
Position the ball just ahead of center for more consistent wedge height and spin.
Ensure the clubface rotates open in the backswing; a closed face results in low, hot shots with minimal spin.
Target a launch angle between 28 and 30 degrees for optimal wedge control.
Narrow your stance significantly for 'finesse' wedge shots under 50 yards to reduce excessive lower body movement.
Use the 'logo to the sky' feel in the backswing to prevent delofting the club at impact.
