The "Cut Shot" is indispensable for anyone who misses the Green on the High Side (innercityteacher). Who in their right mind would ever do such a thing (innercityteacher).
The "Cut Shot" is any stroke that uses Vertical Hinging. It has a higher than normal trajectory and exceptional backspin for stopping power.
Vertical Hinging is the Clubface Laying Back Only through Impact and the Impact Point on the Ball is the same as the separation point. In other words, the ball went along with the clubface - no loss of compress which means that distance control can be calculated and learned.
The "Lob" is a special application "Cut Shot". It's a category of "Cut Shot" because it also uses Vertical Hinging. But, it loses compression ( a lot) because the Impact and Separation points are not the same. Unpredictable. I call it the "Poor Mans" Cut Shot. I use the term "Poor" because it's like a "poorly executed" Cut Shot (see innercityteacher). You need to Bend the Left Wrist. Remember when Phil Mickelson demonstrated a shot that landed behind him?
