Default Re: How do you remember everything? (swing questions)

On the Lob wedge debate:

I recall L wedges getting popular a while ago because of how seemingly effortless it was to get the ball airborne. It was as if every one was always facing 15 yard shots from fluffy rough over a sandtrap and a tight pin location.

I think this goes hand-in-hand with the average golfers inability to get the ball in the air with a regular P/S wedge. The same problem that leads to all of the decelerating chip shots, scooping and thin "worm burning" skulls.

It's like hitting out of the sand near the green, everyone wants to take a slow short swing and lift the ball out of the bunker all dainty like without touching the sand.
