If that’s what you’re looking for shoot your shots from the field tall and soft, I have a master recipe. Spinning it like the pros is cool in theory, but to do it requires great fundamentals.
Here’s what I mean.

First, you need to keep the shaft relatively neutral and the club face slightly open during setup. Secondly, the length of the backswing needs to be slightly longer than normal. I also recommend using a wrist hinge, which allows you to release the ball slightly.
The key to this is to use a gentler grip pressure, so reduce it from 10 to about four.
Finally, to get that flashy action you’re looking for, you need to create some speed of about one meter before impact, which will enable you to hit the high spinner you see on the course.
