The lob shot is usually played in golf to stop the ball very quickly on the green. The lob shot is probably the hardest shot you can play. Both the risks are enormous and rewards are huge. Let us consider an easy way to set up for a successful lob shot.
To play a lob shot, use a sand wedge or sixty degree lob wedge. As these clubs have the most lofted faces, they make the ball fly very high. You play a lob shot with an open clubface, to raise the loft of the clubface further for an even higher ball trajectory. For the set up, aim the club head ten to fifteen, between three and five meters, left of the hole as you place it behind the ball. This is because the open club face will make the ball fly to the right. With your normal set-up, the ball being in front of the middle of your stance, open the clubface, turning it to the right so it aims at the target and then take your grip. Ensure you set up with the top of the grip pointing at your navel to ensure that the club swings parallel to the line of the ball so the open clubface strikes the ball cleanly.
Use this set up to successfully play the lob shot in golf.
