Understanding the bounce on your wedges
By SwingFix.com staff
Today’s short game tip comes courtesy of Justin Bruton, the Director of Golf at the Biltmore Academy in Miami.
Bruton shares his tips on understanding your clubhead’s “bounce” so you can hit precise, lofted shots around the green. Clubs are built with a varying degrees of bounce. Bruton describes just exactly what bounce is and how you can use it to hit delicate pitch shots around the green.
Using the bounce to swing the club instead of the “leading edge” requires a few different setup techniques, which Bruton shares in this video tip.
“If you can learn to use the bounce in your pitch shots, it’s going to make you a lot more consistent,” said Bruton.
