3 tips on making your wedges Hop and Stop.
Golf Blog by the Mel Sole Golf School.
The "secrets" to catching wedges crisp and knocking them close are anything but secrets.
Here (in no particular order) are the three most important basics for hitting your wedges flush:
1. Play the ball in the middle of your stance. This will encourage you to strike the ball with a descending blow so you get less grass between the ball and the clubface.
2. Make your follow-through longer than your backswing. This will help you accelerate into and through impact.
3. Clean the grooves on your club-face after every shot and opt for a higher-spinning, urethane-covered ball. These gear adjustments will ensure a Tour-style "one-hop-and-stop" landing with limited rollout.
