LOB SHOTS
BEST TIP: Use a long swing with a loose
grip.
Make a long, lazy swing with loose grip and abrupt and
maximum wristcock on backswing.
Take a wide stance, lower handle of club, open the
clubface and tilt the shaft away from the target.
Play ball off left instep with weight on right foot and
hands behind clubhead at impact.

| Golf is a game in which one endeavors to control a ball with implements ill adapted for the purpose -- Woodrow Wilson |
| Lob shots are "feel" shots. So a couple of important ingredients for developing feel and having simple, efficient technique are: (1) keep your grip pressure soft and constant throughout the stroke, and (2) keep your hands quiet. The weight of the club and the motion of the swing might cause your wrists to set and release, but the muscles of your hands and wrists are more passive than active.
