Texas Wedge

The strategy of using a putter from off the putting green, typically from closely mown areas around the green where the ball can roll smoothly to the hole. The Texas wedge technique is particularly effective on firm, fast courses or when dealing with tight pin positions where a higher lofted shot might be risky. This approach eliminates the variables associated with airborne shots and can be especially useful in windy conditions. Famous golfers like Ben Crenshaw popularized the Texas wedge, demonstrating its effectiveness in various course conditions and situations around the green.
