He is forgetting one key element at the amateur level or "weekend" warrior level. If you're wanting to hit it lower, into the wind, you certainly need to slow the swing a tad but need to also drop a club or even two to make up the distance you'll lose hitting it into the wind and with that slower swing. It works for me. If you decide it's a normal 7iron and it's into the wind, choke down some on a 6 or even 5 and take your normal stance normally like Phil says, slow the swing to reduce spin.

@pgatourprov1x He just did, at Pebble Beach and blew Tiger away by 11 strokes!!

He is hitting that shot in optimum conditions, in a tourny there is wind, there is pressure, there is lie, everything, but he is without a doubt, one of the greatest short game players to ever live.
