The Flop Shot

[garyinderry]

If the ball was forward, your left hand, wrist and forearm would be flat and your right wrist cupped.
They are not.

I don't think my right wrist will ever be cupped with my grip.

Tried a wider stance one tonight. Pretty sure I don't do this as I have a tendency to fall back if my body and legs are not over each other. Leading to fats and skulls.

For me as long as the ball is ahead of my sternum I can flip it up and it works every single time.
For different lengths of shots or height, I just adjust how hard I swing, how open the face is, how far back I have the handle and sometimes it's the 56 instead of 60.
The technique stays the same.

If it works, do it

Yeah. Its perfect for most shots lifted up onto the green.

Hope someone finds this useful if they have struggled with this in the past.
