I'm hoping for some advice regarding spin on approach shots. What's the ideal amount of backspin on these type of shots?
For example, I was playing a 148yd Par 3 yesterday and hit an 8 iron that was barely tee'd up. It stuck the green and spun back about 6 feet.
On approach shots with my 50/08F (about 100yds) I get a couple feet of back spin when hitting from the fairway.
I'm currently using a Pro V1, should I consider a Pro V1x to get more "spinny" around the greens? I'm a mid-handicap player trying to understand this a little better.
Thanks in advance for the insight!
