Just 160 yards from the flag. You can place the ball on a tee, creating the perfect lie. This is an opportunity to put a low number on your card. For many, it’s the chance for a net birdie. So what goes wrong?
We see four very common challenges. If you suffer from these, then they’re easy to overcome.
Club selection
Most of you choose a club which,
if struck perfectly, gets to the flag.
As a minimum choose a club which, if hit perfectly,
gets you to the back of the green.
Ball position
We see a lot of golfers tee the ball up
awfully high when using an iron. You should b
e trying to create the perfect lie.
Game management
Put the ball in the fat of the green
away from trouble, and you have more
room for error. Don’t go flag hunting
when the risk of a 5 or worse is staring at you.
Technique
We still see a lot of long irons in bags.
They’re tough to hit consistently. But many of those
who’ve converted to hybrids have never had
a lesson to learn the technique with this club.
