Play a toe-down shot when the ball sits down in rough
For this toe-down shot, put the toe down, set the handle higher, aim a little left, get a bit closer, and swing across. This minimizes how much the rough grabs the club because the toe acts like a scythe as it brushes through the grass. This is useful when it is not quite as buried.
