Lob wedge - you just gotta have faith!!

Wow, 4 sand saves (out of 5) and 3 other up/downs with the "lob wedge from he!!"

I've preached this before to those having problems; Take a couple good practice swings that feel right, step up and repeat swing. Don't take time to overthink it or talk yourself out of it, just step up and repeat the practice swing!

I will be

Although 58* in my head is a SW, Cleveland calls it a lob wedge.

It's a 60 degree Mizuno.

My course, for whatever reason, went last year w/ very little sand in the bunkers, many times less than an inch deep and very hard underneath.....a regular sand wedge would bounce up and either let you hit the ball twice or blade it over the green. I switched to the lob wedge but don't open the face much unless a very short shot is required. Will still use a regular SW if buried in deeper sand but it's not often on my course.

BTW, saw a golf show a year or 2 ago that mentioned many pro's switching to the lob out of the sand.
