Seems as though, everytime I hit a ball into the sand, I just wanted to pick up the ball and end the hole. Have always had a huge problem getting out of the sand. I purchased this club a few weeks ago and believe me when I say, it is the easiest club to hit out of the sand. You can use a putting stroke or a full swing, depending how far the green is. I've even hit this club from the rough, 50 yards plus to the center of the green. I highly recommend this club. If you want to get out of the sand in one shot, buy this club, you won't be sorry.
