Now I would like you to go into your golf bag and get your lob wedge. Now if that sentence doesn’t make any sense to you or you have got it, you know what a lob wedge is, but you haven’t got any makes of lob wedge you need to go and get yourself a lob wedge, this club is absolutely vital and crucial to you improving as a golfer, saving shots around the green and particularly getting out of trouble when you near the green.

A lob wedge is basically a sand wedge but with a lot more loft and a little bit less bounce. So it’s sits at the far end of your bag it’s the highest and shortest club. If you have ever been on the golf course and thought my sand wedge would be okay here but I need a bit more height that’s when you need a lob wedge. If your sand wedge is okay but it goes a bit too far that’s when you need a lob wedge. If your sand wedge is okay but it rolls too far when it lands that’s when you need a lob wedge, the lob wedge will always be the highest shot you can have, in the shortest amount of role when it comes down. So be it from a bunker shot when you need to flick it out over the lip and get it to stop very quickly, be it clearing up and over at the top of a tree, be landing on the green and trying to get the ball to spin a little bit, a lob wedge is absolutely crucial to you.

60 degrees of loft maybe even 64 degrees of loft. You can play them in lots of different ways, you can play it from the front of your stance and fly it as high as possible. You could play back in your stance a little bit chop it out to the bad line and still get plenty of heights on it. It won’t go very far, it might be maxed out about 50 to 70 yards, even with a full shot it won’t go great deal further than that, but when you are around the greens and particularly tie pin positions, big bunkers, trying to drop the ball on really close and really stopping the ball quickly, the lob wedge is essential. So get a lob wedge in your bag, see if you can hit these little high soft shots that just nip up into the air, ball comes down and stops in an instance. If you don’t have a lob wedge, go and get yourself one and watch your scores come tumbling down.
