or not a cut shot - that's the question.

Does it need to be vertical hinging or can a cut shot also be done with angled hinging? Does it even have to be a cut shot? Maybe it is good enough to let it be a normal reguired motion pitch shot?



I find vertical hinging difficult. Maybe angled hinging gets the job done to get the ball high enough with a SW/LW, although it will roll a little more?

By the way - is it the bounce of the SW or the leading edge that hits the ground in these types of shots? Or does that depend on what kind of shot you want to do? (In what way - how does this work?)

Are you asking for a flop shot?? If so there are many ways to do it - vertical hinge, open the face, throw the blade under the ball (severe throw away), move the handle back (opposite of forward lean into the ball). Any or any combination will work with any hinge depending on the desired shot.
