Have any of you noticed problems hitting your wedges from a tight lie? I ask this because yesterday I had a few shots one about 30 yds out from dead grass almost like I was hitting the ball off of concrete, I used my 58* cleveland wedge and had no problem getting it up in the air. A few holes later I had a similar lie but further out and had to use my AW. I bladed my first attempt and while I tried again and opened the face of the club up I just couldnt get under the ball with this wedge. Anyone else experiencing this problem? Or is it just mechanical error??
I have not had any issues with the PW-SW from tight lies. I've had opposite experiences actually, where the wedges were so reliable from all lies, I went out and bought a matching Burner 2.0 AW. This was a different experience I see with my CG Gold irons, where I would carry Vokey GW, SW, and LWs.
I find myself using the thought process of hitting down on these tight shots to help the ball get airborne. I know its counterintuitive, but it seems to work for me. I often practice these types of shots at the end of my range session when I have a nice section of divots cut out of the tee.
