Monthly Golf Tips by Mel Sole Golf School.

In this month's video golf tip, Mel Sole discusses club selection and demonstrates techniques for improving play on muddy lies.

3 Keys contribute to the success of this shot.

  1. Use and Sand wedge instead of a Lob wedge.  The Sande Wedge has more bounce and prevents the club from digging too deep.
  2. Play the ball further back in the stance.  This ensures that I hit the ball first!
  3. Control this shot with the body rotation and not the arms.  Turn through with the body as soon as you start the downswing.
  4. 4. Make sure that you keep the handle moving through impact.  No quitting on this shot!

Be sure to work on these 3 keys, and you will not hit these muddy lies fat!  Practice this shot before trying t on the golf course to build confidence in the motion!
