I have heard this phrase often when in comes to pitch shots. How would we apply that (or should we) from a TGM perspective?
So that the clubhead doesn't dig into the ground-sand or dirt or grass.

"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn. Bend the shaft.
Utley is right my pitching got much better when I went to 12 degree bounce on wedges. Chipping doesn't hit the ground first, he states that on soft pitches hitting the ground gives you a margin for error, (not blading it)!
Utley doesnt like to spin the shots, he wants to use roll to get close, not back spin. Hence the use of bounce then impact on soft pitch shots.
