Cast Pivot for Distance Wedges

While you can make the same swing for all clubs, you'll naturally struggle with the clubs where that motion is not ideal. There are differences in the pivot as well as the release for the tour's best wedge players and drivers of the golf ball. With wedges, it is more advantageous to stay centered in the backswing and then work more vertically (up and away from the ball) in the downswing. This helps to put the bottom of the swing closer to the golf ball as well as to help with the low launch/high spin goal.
