How do I hit a golf pitch shot?

Answer by  baybeebluz (72)

Start with selecting an appropriate wedge. Then, align the ball with your back foot. Keep your arms straight. Once you have the club over the ball, lean your arms forward slightly. This will enable the ball to get some air time. Swing back far enough to get the ball onto the green. Allow for some roll.

Take your pitching wedge and strike down on the ball. Aim about 2 inches in front of the ball, while keeping your club low. The ball should be popped lightly into the air and land where you are aiming. Take the club back proportionally to the distance that you would like the ball to go.

A pitch shot is a short high trajectory shot toward your target usually using a pitching wedge. Set yourself in a balanced position with your feet about shoulder width apart and knees slightly bent. Take two or three practice swings through the grass to get the right feel ( sweeping ) and then hit the ball with same stroke.
