while still on the subject of short irons I wonder, particularly for pitching and sand wedge shots, whether you swing the clubs like a middle or long irons. What I'm really trying to say is whether you would square the clubface at impact. What I tend to do is taking the club back already "squared" with the ball (if you know what I mean) and just maintain that "squared" club position on the way back in the downswing? My shots often go astray and wonder if what I'm doing is correct but just not doing it properly or am I totally wrong! Would appreciate any suggestions.
