The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)
Inside 100yds Billy Maxwell was absolutely one of the best.... If I had to vote all time.. I'd pick 1)Maxwell, 2)Trevino with a bunch of tied for 3rd's....including Gay Brewer who wasn't mentioned.
Who are the best with wedges.... are they random sweepers? I don't know ... just thinking at moment...
From about a 100 yds or so... HIT
Short gamers may prefer a Hit Stroke with at least hands at Impact Postion. With a short take back, there may be least time to set the Flying Wedges. From Impact Position they are set to go. With a driving right arm and pivot, I get a "no release' release feel.
It is important to know what the hands are doing. Will they roll back to square or will the pivot square the face? If you hit the hostel too often, you are failing to pivot.

Thank you

ouch- yes I meant to write HOSEL, as in HOSEL ROCKET. But if you do hit the HOSTEL too often, it might be a shank. Or a hook. I just hate writing the S word or the Y word.
If your small chips are hitting off the HOSEL, you are leading the Hosel into impact. You turned the clubface away from the ball and did NOT roll or Swivel it back into Impact. Or you have No Pivot to roll the face sqaure. Lag the sweet spot not the HOSEL. Watson learned from Nelson his short game and have a very active pivot with his chips and pitches.
Even a Hitter with a clubface that does not turn- still employs a small pivot. The shoulders are the link between the turn and the thrust.
