Re: Backspin

Backspin is achieved by a steep attack angle on the ball. There can not be anything between the clubface and the ball when struck (blades of grass). The final factor is high clubhead speed. Most amateurs would need to get quite 'handsy' at impact to create the spin needed to get the ball to spin back.
