All low handicapper great short game player I know know how to use vertical hinging, throwaways in their chip and pitches, almost all by experiences. And get them closer to the green. The bounce really helps in cushioned lies, even soft turfs, making the club bounce/glides off the thick turf / rough instead of digging or twisting in the rough.
But its not necessary that the hand is ahead at impact we cannot get the bounce working correctly. Just get a bigger bounce .... or wider flange.. IMPO. Instead of digging in fat pitch ( which we shouldn't by the way) it will bounce and glide. Let the equipment work for us.
Of course we can use a good compression, the ball compress great,roll fast, and stop fast around the green with some practice. But I now realized its not as forgiving..There are players like these,and I used to play this way, but the score is streaky. SOFT , 2m2 /4 , low acceleration is the key( even with a flat left wrist and correct aligment) to consistencies /predictable again I agree with Stan on this point.
Though... i am not sure to agree about the ground then the ball,Not sure what he meant by that.. its in my incubator.
