Golf Shot Tips
Over the course of a round you will face many different types of golf shots. Indeed, varying lie conditions will have a big impact on the type of shot you should hit.
For instance, you will need to make several adjustments to your setup and swing in order to get out of a green side bunker, in contrast to a shot from the fairway 150 yards away from the green. Likewise, terrain ondulations and the length of the grass beneath and around the ball will also dictate how you should deal with different shots on the course.
