Me and My Golf presents three simple techniques to eliminate fat wedge shots and improve strike quality. The instruction covers weight-forward setup adjustments, a head-rotation method inspired by Dustin Johnson, and a loft-management strategy for softer turf conditions.
Position your weight forward and the ball slightly back to ensure your chest stays ahead of the ball at impact.
Rotate your head and gaze toward the target during the strike to shift the low point of your swing forward.
Use a lower-lofted wedge with a softer swing on shorter shots to 'clip' the ball off the turf rather than digging deep.
Expect a few thin shots when first practicing the head-rotation technique as you adjust to the new low point.
