Bryan Geiberger: 60-degree Wedge Lesson
In this video, Bryan Geiberger provides some valuable tips on how to improve your confidence with a 60-degree wedge. He demonstrates the proper setup and technique to help you hit high, soft shots around the green. Let’s dive into the details of his lesson.
Opening the Clubface
When using a 60-degree wedge, it’s important to open the clubface slightly. This will help you launch the ball higher into the air. However, be mindful of your ball position. If you’re too far in front of the ball, you may hit it thin. On the other hand, if you’re too far behind the ball, you risk bouncing into it. Finding the right balance is key.
The Thump Technique
Geiberger emphasizes the importance of a continuous motion swing. He demonstrates a technique where you feel a slight thump as the club interacts with the ground. This thump indicates that you’re using the ground effectively and getting the clubhead down into the turf. By practicing this thump technique, you’ll develop a better feel for hitting high, soft shots.
