How to Play a Middle Iron from Deep Rough

Play the ball back in your stance, with your hands a couple of inches ahead of it. Open the clubface. Swing the club back on an exaggerated upright plane, allowing your wrists to cock quickly. On the downswing, pull the club down hard, smacking the back center portion of the ball with the sweet spot of the clubface. - Butch Harmon
