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

I also think some people overuse lob-type wedges because lobbing the ball way up in the air a la Phil is a lot sexier than a bump-and-run. That's a retarded line of thinking of course, but I honestly believe some people think that way.

I have a friend who is a decent stick who once used a 60 degree wedge or some such when he was on the fringe, not twelve feet from the hole and at most a foot off the green, with nothing to carry and a pretty flat shot. He had us pull the flag for him, and of course he proceeded to duff the chip about halfway to the hole. He wasn't my partner, if he was I would have questioned the play right there, but instead my teammate and I had a good chuckle about it when we were out of his earshot.
