EdZ . . . do you INTENTIONALLY hit the ball fat when doing this? I have used that shot some and it works good. But I'm not sure that is what you are saying.

Holla back.
For a bad lie from thick rough around the green, where you need to make 'sure' you get it out, but you don't have much distance to get on the green - yep - I intentially move low point back - just like in a bunker shot.

Keep in mind that does not mean throw away, it means I adjust the machine alignments/ball position/clubface to get my low point under the ball, instead of ahead of it, or even behind for a nasty lie.

All the while the machine moves the same way, the setup determines the result not an in swing manipulation. Far easier than intentionally throwing it away, which while useful at certain times (very high, soft shot) is much harder to do than to simpley align the machine for the result you want.

Using the bounce basically means manipulation of the low point of the clubhead (aiming point), moving it back from where it would be if you were using the leading edge. Still with a flat left wrist.
