But, the fact of the matter is. objects and and other hazards such as water and tall grass or trees are on most golf courses. The golfer has to learn to deal with taflrBatt?anss--r- Country GOD, has JA few hints on how to deal with these "Most oftert, trouble shots are a result of a missed or improperly struck shot to begin with," said Habjan. "Tne true belief of the game is everyone wants to hit the golf shot straight But if One can understand what makes a golf ball curve, one would undeirstand why a severely curved shot got you in trouble and how that same curve shot gets you out of trouble. "You have to understand, to curve a shot or hit a shot high or hit a shot low; you have to have some "On this one, choose a driver, because it doesn't have loft and a deeper face.

And that is what a lot of people don't do. They think they can hook a ball when it is physically "It's not a question of a golfers ability, but more so with the conditions that exist in the shot." Different Trouble Shots One trouble shot deals with a hazard, such as water, on the right hand side. "Unless you consistently curve your Shots to the left with the driver, this is a good time to leave it in the bag and use a lofted fairway wood. With a more lofted club, your initial contact will be lower on die golf ball, thus causing more bade spin than side spin. "Therefore, if you can hit the golf ball with an open dub face, chances are it won't go as far to the right You also have to bear in mind, with a more lofted club, if your contact comes with the dub face close, the ball wul still fly at a suitable height only left of the target "If the driver is used, chances are with a straight face, theball would fail to get in the air. "The golfer who slices all his long shots should always use a more lofted dub in this situation and turn both hands slightly to the right. This wUl ensure the dubface to be square at impact. It has the tendancy to bring the dubface a little closed for those people who have the dubface open at impact. It is also a guard from hitting it to the right Habjan added that teeing the ball higher will also promote a more sweeping or flatter swing which aids in squaring the dub (ace. A« on the left hand side is a second type of shot. This shot is not as bothersome to a player who slices a ball, because it moves the ball away from the hazardous area. . _ . you will automatically assume a bit more upright position or zht swing path to get the ball up in the air. That's it's more advisable to tee it up lower to think more to get the ball up in the air and the ball 'thave a tendency to go to the left. A tight lie, one where the ball is next to a tree or some object, is another type of hazard shot Deep grass is anntw problem. "Either on bare ground or heavy grass. There are a lot of people who say they'd rather hit out of the rough thwn on a tight lie. It's the same, but just how are you going to get the ball out? "Your primary concern is striking the ball first instead of the ground or the long grass. Steepen your approach or your angle of attack. It has to be more of a chopping motion to get the ball first, instead of a sweeping motion as you would on a fairway wood shot off a fairway. . .. "There are two ways of steepening of sharpening your angle of approach and descent You can swing on and out in the path with the dubface open which will create a shorter higher shot, or you caacontact fee ball earty in the downswing before thedub hits the bottom of your arc. This produces a lower ruhning shot. To play the higher shot, align your shoulders farther left than normal with the dubface open or to the right Set your hands in a forward press position. Now swing the dub up and down following your shoulder alignment to create the out-to-in path through impact. •. "To correctly play the higher shorter shot, (day the ball well back in your stance with your hand in a forward mess position. Therefore, the club face is hooded. By doing this, most of your weight will be on your left foot Now swing your club up and down the target line mostly with your arms. "Swing up and down the target line which will keep it going on line and keep it low, because the dub face will be coming in square or a shaded hooded. "This system is mostly effective in the long rough, but remember with the hooded or closing the clubface you are automatically decreasing the loft of the iron. vt-x ; swing or golfing ability.

Jack NicUaus to execute." tion iMsMu McHenry Country Club Professional ons therefore, make sure the club you choose has more loft than normal. Objects Blocking The Line Of Flight When a golfer is faced with the choice of making a safe shot straight or curving the ball, he has to know what his limitations are. "So many players attempt this shot, but the si shot curves and the intended curve shot goes st The golfer somehow blames his poor swing or ability. You have to realize there are certain coi in some shots tint make it all but impossible for even JaA Nirklaira tP execute. "There are three conditions apart from a crossWind or your natural tendency to hook or slice that one should consider before you attempt the shot These are; die length of the shot, the lie fo the ball, and any sloping terrain in th immediate area. "Always think and take these into consideration before you try to slice a ball around a tree, or hook a ball around a tree. It's much easier to hook a ball to the right or to the left with much less lofted dub because you hit the ball more to the back than underneath to produce side spin. "It's much easier to curve a ball to left with an inside to outside swing. Without the loft on the dub, you might not get the ball into the air. Less loft promotes a shallower swing and it's more inside out and if you donHhave enough loft, you are going to put such a side spin on the balTgoing to the left it will never get air, born.: •• or shallower the curve the ball, is that the swing, the easier it Is to hook the "An upright swing or a outside to make it easier to slice the ball or curve right It is easier to curve the ball to the i lie, because the inside to outside swing and sharpneSs of your angle of descent the bill is always going to jump In that direction. > "To curve the ball the left, an exceptionally food He is required, because of the shallowness of the swing.
