| When hitting a shot from the rough, the age old wisdom is to hinge the wrists early to create a steeper descent into the ball. Is this still true with the SD pattern? If so, how is it accomplished with a lagging club head? ![]() |

| This is a good question Hogan55... I have used the lagging club head takeaway from the rough. I have been able to lag the club with an increase in vertical takeaway with more of a V shape ascent and descent on the ball verses a U Shape take away and ascent. moorejr12 |

| Why not? The thing you NEED in the rough is sorta an exaggerated NHA2 type swing. Whether or not you "lagged the clubhead" in the takeaway would not matter that much. You need STEEPNESS, and OUTSIDE-IN-ness, and of course, and open face & brute strength. ![]()
