We will discuss two situations where we can save you many shots around the green when the ball is sitting against the collar. And when it is sitting down in light rough fairly close to the green. Learn how to master these two invaluable shots!
The first shot is sitting against the collar of the rough. Tough to get a putter in there as there is a danger of getting too much grass between the clubface and the ball. Take a Sand Wedge and hit the ball with the leading edge of the club. This makes the ball roll out of that situation with a lot of topspin, and you would hit it about as hard as a putt.
The send shot where the ball is sitting down in the grass, but the ball is not too far off the green, use a fairway wood or a hybris just like a putter. Get into your putting stance, grip down on the club, and put the ball out of the grass. You will again hit this about as hard as you would a normal putt.
Both shots will come out rolling, so practice these shots to figure out exactly how hard you should hit them.
