Golf Mythbusters: Spinning with the Wedge

Edoardo Molinari is an Italian professional golfer who was a part of the victorious 2010 Ryder Cup team at the Celtic Manor Resort in Newport, Wales. In this CNN Living Golf segment, Edoardo shows us how to get more spin with the ball when hitting our wedges! The general consensus of getting more spin is that we have to hit down and steeper onto the ball however, as Edoardo shows us, that may not be true!

Technology has advanced rapidly in golf and with the aid of Trackman, we are able to identify the exact amount of spin that our shots have. You’d be surprised to find out that it’s not necessarily the angle of attack but the loft delivered to the golf ball at impact that affects the spin rate!
