Golf Tips - Rough -
Under the current weather conditions, you’ve hit a really god tee shot, but it’s managed to trickle into the rough. The lie doesn’t look to bad, but how can I be sure. On this hole, I normally make birdie, however this tee shot has left me in a challenging position. Today, I’ll settle for par and run to the next hole.
But how do I keep momentum of this round going? How is this shot different than the one from the fairway on the last hole?
Try These Tips –
- Assess the rough - is it into you? or laying down? - or maybe clumpy?
- Club selection - should you take a more lofted club ?
- Ball position - place the ball a little further back in your stance
- Body weight - a little more forward to neutral depending on yardage
- Grip - adjust hand pressure as needed - grass may alter clubface at impact
- Practice swing - take several swing to get a "feel" of the conditions
