THE LOB SHOT

To get the most of this we must look at 2-C-2. A "Cut shot" is any stroke using vertical hinging through impact regardless of of plane line or the preceeding wrist action. H. Kelley

10-5-D is the one I utilize more often than not. In this way I can trace a plane line which is outside in to the target line and employ a little reverse roll.

So stand open-open with the clubface at the target and swing out to in (Left) utilizing a little reverse roll and you have the cut shot.

The lob comes from ball position. For the lob use the above cut shot procedure but have the ball positioned at low point (opposite your left shoulder.) With the ball positioned here the clubhead will be moving level or parallel to the ground which will in turn take the compression off the ball.

Therefore, the cut shot and the lob shot are the same with exception of ball positioning.
