"Hue...sorry! When I had my lesson with Stan he advocated using one club for all short game shots. He used a Ping 60 deg LW. He liked it because of the bounce configuration. His distance control was based on feel. The lesson I had was concerning all short game shots up to 100 yards.

For pitch and chip shots where he wanted to change trajectory he would manipulate his left wrist position at impact. Applying it to The Golfing Machine, Stan would perform varying degrees of angular hinging as this will alter trajectory."


"Interestingly, Stan controlled trajectory by varying the left wrist position at impact. This is different from angular hinging. For his cut shot, he set up very square and performed the above motion. For all his shots, the ball was not moved around much. He typically utilized a static ball position."

On his bunker play

"Hue...Yes he did. Stan, like mostly all shots, played from a very square alignment position. Stan attacked on a very shallow angle of attack which was primarily setup by the width of his stance and low hand address position. His weight distribution was approximately 60 percent of his weight on his left. Stan used his Ping Eye 2 - 58 deg sand wedge. This particular SW has 13 degrees of bounce and a tour grind with heel and toe relief.

Stan did not loft the clubface like advocated today. The ball position was neutral to forward. To get a feel of how began his backswing, address a ball. Now hinge the club so that the clubshaft is vertical directly in front of you..do not let the arms swing back. Now, allow the pivot to provide the rotational motion. The feeling is that your hands are "staying at home" while the club is getting vertical by virtue of the hinging wrists. When Stan performs the shot there is a definite "thud" of the bounce being properly utilized. Like all shots, he maintains a planal relationship.

As for controlling distance, Stan did not have a scientific approach. His experience dictated the proper length of the swing for the appropriate distance."

Stan's lob shot

"Concerning the lob shot, Stan would actually set in a slight cup at address. He would actually set the shaft rearward leaning which has the effect of lofting the clubface. He would then maintain that wrist relationship throughout the motion. As for the address, he setup so that he had a very shallow angle of attack. He would make use of the reduced bounce in the heel of the sole."
