pulling my wedges

[dant]

I carry a 52, 56, and either a 58 or 60 degree wedges. I am always pulling them to the left. Any ideas on how I can stop this from happening or what I am doing wrong.
Thanks Dant

Re: pulling my wedges

I had that problem for some time, then I realised that my left hand grip was too strong on my pitches (thumb about 1 o'clock). I adjusted my grip (thumb about 12:15), and the pulls went away. There may be a couple of other reasons why your pitches go left (or any shot for that matter):

- not staying down through the shot, changing your spine angle before contacting the ball
- setting up in a manner that guarantees an out to in swingpath

There's some fun stuff for you to chew on at the chipping green.

First thing I'd do is get the lies checked using a lie board & tape.
I suspect that your wedges may be to upright - causing the heel to dig & the toe to flip.
