Butch Harmon on NOT Using a Wedge (Video)

This is so simple however very few gamers ever listen. Let Butch give an explanation for it...

The concept is simple: A less-than-full swing is easier to control than a full swing. Perhaps the pros like to hit wedges as hard as they can, but that doesn't mean YOU should. Despite hours of practice, the pros still mis-hit those full shot very often.

But they do not mis-hit the short pictures like chips and pitches nearly as frequently, do they? That's what Butch wishes you to recognize.

The approach is similarly simple. Just select a 9-iron in preference to a wedge, position the ball slightly in advance of the middle of your stance and make a 3-area swing with a cut-off end. That continues the ball flight down and makes it easier to get the ball on-line to the target.

And at the same time as Butch says to use a 9-iron for this shot, the concept works for longer shots as properly. There are photographs where you currently try and hit a 7- or eight-iron that might provide higher results the use of this technique with a 5- or 6-iron. When distance isn't a hassle, it is commonly quality to select accuracy over power.

You might be surprised at how many strokes this tip can prevent during a spherical. After all, Butch knows what he is speakme approximately.
