GOLF Magazine's Best of the Month: December 2007
(1 of 10)
10 Tips from December's Golf Magazine
The top 10 things in this month's issue of GOLF Magazine that will improve your game right now!
1. How to choose the right wedge
The question isn't if you should carry a lob wedge (you should!)
but when you should use it. Golf Magazine's December cover
story proves that you can hit the ball as much as 41 percent closer
when you pick the right club. Here's what we found:
• Pitch from fairway: Use lob wedge (41% closer)
• Pitch from rough: Use lob wedge (40% closer)
• Pitch from hardpan: Use sand wedge (34% closer)
• Chip from fairway: Use sand wedge (29% closer)
• Chip from uphill rough: Use sand wedge (29% closer)
• Standard bunker shot: Use lob wedge (34% closer)
• Deep-faced bunker shot: Use lob wedge (30% closer)
• Buried-lie bunker shot: Use either one
