Pick the Right Club for Pitching Over Bunkers

Here’s a great tip from Alison Curdt on the right club selection for pitching over a bunker and stopping the ball close to the flag.

Here’s a quick tip this to get you hitting over the bunkers with success. Make sure you select a club that has the correct loft to help you get up and over the bunker that will create enough spin to not roll across the green. Particularly when a flag is tucked right behind a bunker you want to use your highest lofted wedge to execute this pitch and get it to stop.

How to Play a Flighted Wedge Shot

Flighted wedge shots can be really helpful when you want to get close to the pin from a good lie. Here are some keys from Alison Curdt to get you started.

Chipping with a Lower Lofted Wedge

LPGA and PGA Master Professional Alison Curdt shows when you're just short of the green and not too far from the pin don't take a wedge and try to hit it really high. Hit something low and let it roll up to the hole.

I’m really enjoying this membership. The lessons are helpful and the camaraderie is unique and special.

I joined a couple of weeks ago. I really like that the lessons are short and only address one thing. So often you are tied in knots after getting too many instructions. Glad I joined.

A year later...and I still love all I’m learning from this group!

I am really impressed with Women's Golf and couldn't be more pleased with my membership and all of the great resources I can access.

Thank you for such a wonderful resource! I just joined and am so thankful for you and the other women golfers in this community.

I just wanted to pop on and tell you how grateful I am that you have a lesson on the scorecard and handicap! I am really enjoying your website and the facebook social group.
