Distance Wedge Basics

As a basic framework for your stock distance wedge shot, you need a setup routine and a simple framework for the swing. In this video, I give you that starting point for building a swing with Stacked Centers, Constant Radius, and Smooth Force.

In order to build the setup, you'll want to have more of the weight stacked over the front leg. You'll set up so that your nose is just ahead of the golf ball or the ball in line with the trail eye. Stance no wider than shoulder width.

With the basic stroke, you'll want your arms and body moving at a similar rate. This feels more like you keep your arms pretty straight and the body rotates as one unit.
