I only use it when I'm short sided but what I do is use a lot of wrists and kind of pop the ball by dropping the club on the back of it. Provides a lot of check and little release. The clubhead barely moves past the original ball position for me.

When I'm at the practice range early enough in the morning that I have the place to myself, I'll take a small bucket of balls and scatter them just off the green - up to about 20 yards away - including in the bunker and varying lengths of rough. I'll pick a hole on the green and hit all the balls with just one club. Then I do it again with different club. It's pretty clear that some shots look good and can be brilliant, but at a higher risk - not to say those shots won't get used on the course though, since I'm not usually playing for anything more than fun.

I chip with my 58 almost exclusively. I have a hard time judging distance with less loft. For me it is easier. I can vary the hieght of the shot by set up and the swing I use.

    • I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family
    • First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
