300:
Are you left handed? How can a ball be positioned forward and be off your Right toe? Also, the lie dictates the ball position and the club to use, don't get caught into playing a textbook shot out of an untextbook lie.
Concerning spin, the less spin the better, as the ball and it's bounces are more predictable. Tom Watson had a great career on not spinning his pitches and chips. You need to know how to hit it high and with spin, just don't let that become your bread and butter shot...Your thoughts?

Thanks, I corrected my posting error, I meant Left toe.

My experience is, clean lie or in the rough, ball well forward, with a slicing action, yields best results. As my instructor says, "TRY IT FIRST", then conclude.

Out of the rough, SW or GW is needed since you have to generate speed to get it out and near the hole, where, speed with a 7 iron will blow it well past the hole.
