I remember the days when they called these “knock down” shots. You can do it with virtually every club in the bag. I still hit them, so I have to change the name of the shot? Not likely.

The only issue I have is that there’s not enough discussion how to hit the “stinger” than the science behind it. Yes, lower loft but how?

Too much talk – not enough time left for the instruction phase.

Off the tee. Not off the deck.
Anybody can hit it with a 16 degree iron
Simples!
