What's the saying?, "if one can't play, just teach!!!" Well check out the line drive this guy hits teaching how to hit a lob shot. Everything about this tip is wrong. You play the ball forward, not back in your stance. You open the clubface not close it, and you don't aim in front of the ball.

Oh, no!!! I've been doing it wrong all these years! Now I know when I need to hit a high lob over a sand trap and stop it quickly, I move the ball BACK in my stance and move my hands forward, turning that lob wedge into a 7 iron. Why didn't I think of that?

I looked at a couple of this joker's other video "tips". They are just as bad. Oh well, good for a laugh.

Nice find - that's horrible advice!!

Lol, that guy look terrible. Not only is the entire instruction awful, but so is his grip.

I'm gonna try this method next time I need to lob one under a tree.

The ball barely got off the ground, right?

You don't use the 150 yard horizontal flop shot?

      I have had the flu recently which gave me plenty of time to pore over Joseph Mayo’s instagram. I have hit a ton of shots each day on carpet and a little started how easy this shot is to make. Key thought for me is bring the club “no closer to the earth.” That really resonated with me. If I really steepen the attack angle I can hit my 58* lob wedge barely an inch or two off the ground and a repeatable distance. I don’t recommend this but tried it to what the end ranges are for angle of descent. I actually think a 62*-64* wedge might be even better for this shot.
